Pickup & Delivery

Pickup and delivery are arranged to make sure your order reaches you safely and on time.

Pickup is available in Brossard.

The exact pickup location and instructions are provided once your order has been confirmed.

What happens if I don't pick up my order?

Orders can be held for up to 2 days after the agreed pickup date.

After that period, the order may be discarded and payments will not be refunded.

Payments & Cancellations

Payment terms depend on whether you are purchasing a standard product or placing a Custom Order.

How do payments work?

Standard Bakeshop and Cake Decor products must be paid in full when the order is placed.

Custom Orders require a 50% deposit to confirm the order.

The remaining balance must be paid no later than pickup or delivery.

Current payment methods include:

  • Interac e-Transfer
  • Square

What is your cancellation policy for standard products?

Standard products may be cancelled for a full refund when cancellation is requested at least 3 days before the scheduled pickup or delivery date.

Cancellations made less than 3 days before the scheduled date are non-refundable.

Edible Print orders may be cancelled only before file preparation or printing has begun. Once preparation or printing has started, Edible Print orders are non-refundable.

What is your cancellation policy for Custom Orders?

Custom Orders may be cancelled for a full refund of the deposit when cancellation is requested at least 7 days before the scheduled pickup or delivery date.

Cancellations made less than 7 days before the scheduled date are non-refundable.

Products & Special Requests

Some products have specific requirements because they are made to order.

Do you offer allergy-friendly products?

I cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment.

Products may come into contact with ingredients containing common allergens, including:

  • dairy
  • eggs
  • gluten
  • nuts
 

If you have a severe allergy, please contact me before placing your order.

How does Edible Printing work?

Edible Printing is a printing-only service using letter-size sugar paper.

You must provide a final, ready-to-print file.

The service does not include:

  • graphic design
  • layout
  • resizing
  • editing
  • file preparation


If I notice an obvious issue with your file before printing, I’ll contact you for approval before proceeding.

Will my order look exactly like the reference image?

Reference images are used as inspiration and guidance. Custom Orders, 3D Figurines, Sugar Flowers, Cake Toppers, and other handmade items may vary slightly in colour, shape, proportion, placement, and detail.

These small variations are part of the handmade process. Final designs are subject to approval before the order is confirmed.

Custom Orders

Custom Orders are designed specifically around your celebration, theme, and inspiration.

What counts as a Custom Order?

Custom Orders include cakes and dessert designs created specifically for your celebration and not offered as standard Bakeshop products.

They may include birthdays, weddings, baby showers, themed celebrations, and other special events.

How do I place a Custom Order?

Start by visiting the Custom Orders page and completing the order request form.

You can provide your event details, inspiration, preferred colours, theme, and other important information.

Once the request is reviewed, I’ll confirm availability, design details, and pricing before the order is finalized.

Is my Custom Order confirmed when I submit the form?

No.

Submitting a request does not automatically confirm the order.

Your order is confirmed only after the design, availability, pricing, and required deposit have been approved.
