What's included

Built for small-batch kitchens

🎂

Custom cake order forms

Multi-step form: size, flavor, filling, decoration, writing, pickup date. Deposit at order time. Final due at pickup.

📅

Pickup time slots

Set how many orders you can handle per time slot. Customers pick an open window. No over-promising.

🥐

Weekly specials + pre-orders

This week's batch of croissants. Pre-order by Wednesday, pickup Friday. Sells out naturally.

🍽️

Catering inquiry forms

Structured intake: head count, event type, dietary, delivery or pickup. You get a proper quote request, not a vague DM.

🎯

Seasonal/holiday drops

Valentine's dozen, Thanksgiving pies, Christmas stollen. Scheduled launch, optional deposit, fulfillment windows.

📝

Recipe-based dietary flags

Per-item: gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, vegan. Customers with allergies filter the menu safely.

💬

SMS order updates

"Your cake is ready for pickup!" or "Running 15 min behind, sorry!" — texts your customers actually read.

💳

Deposit + final payment

50/50 deposit for custom orders. Stripe handles the charge. No awkward "please Venmo me" texts.

Standing orders / subscriptions
