All cakes made by Sprinkles & Mallows Cakes are subject to the following terms and conditions.

TERMS & CONDITIONS DEFINITIONS

The “Seller / We / Us / Our” is defined as the legal entity Sprinkles & Mallows Cakes. The “Buyer / You” means the person/s who buys the Cake. The Seller and the Buyer are collectively referred to as the Parties. “The Cake” is the cake/cakes to be supplied by the Seller to the Buyer and as described in the invoice accompanying these terms and conditions. “The Event” is the wedding/celebration that the Cake is required for.

ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement forms the entire Agreement between the Parties.

CONSULTATIONS

The Parties agree to a preliminary consultation in person, by telephone or by email before the Event to confirm the design and specification of the Cake. Following the consultation the Seller will provide a quote. There is a charge for consultations.

BOOKING FEE

A booking fee (amount detailed in the booking invoice) is required within 14 days of the order form being sent to secure the Event date for the Cake. Upon payment of the booking fee the Seller will reserve the date of the Event. The booking fee is non-refundable and is deducted from the final balance for the Cake. PRICE QUOTATIONS

All price quotations, written or verbal, are valid for 30 days from the date of quotation.

CAKE DESIGNS

The Seller will use its best endeavours to produce a Cake which matches the design agreed with the Buyer. The Parties agree that the Seller has the right to use artistic licence to alter the design of the Cake where needed should the design not “flow” when decorating the Cake. Where a colour fabric swatch or ribbon sample has been provided to the Seller by the Buyer for colour matching purposes, the Seller will do its utmost to match the colour as best as possible, but accepts no liability if it is not an exact match.

PAYMENT AND BOOKING FEES

The final balance less the booking fee will be due 3 weeks before the date of the Event as specified on the invoice. The final balance specified on the invoice must be paid by the Buyer by the date detailed on the invoice. Payment can be made earlier if the Buyer wishes. Orders placed less than 3 weeks in advance of the delivery date must be paid in full. Failure to pay the final balance by the date stated on the invoice may result in the Buyer’s Cake order being cancelled. The Seller accepts payment by cheque, cash or bank transfer only as per the payment details on the invoice.

CANCELLATIONS AND ALTERATIONS

If the Buyer wishes to make alterations to the Cake as detailed on the invoice accompanying these terms and conditions the Buyer must contact the Seller immediately. The Seller will assess the Buyer’s request for an alteration and will notify the Buyer to confirm its effect (if any) on the price quotation and the agreed timetable ahead of the Event. Accepting a request for the alteration of a Cake order is at the discretion of the Seller. The Seller offers a bespoke service and is limited to how many orders for Cake it accepts. In the event that the Buyer cancels its booking with the Seller it is unlikely that the Event date will be filled and the following cancellation charges will apply: • 3 weeks or less – 100% of invoice cost • 3 weeks or more – loss of booking fee. Booking fees are non-refundable. In the unlikely event that the Seller has to cancel the Buyer’s Cake order, the Seller will contact the Buyer to try to agree a suitable alternative at the same price. If the Buyer does not accept the Seller’s alternative, the Seller will refund to the Buyer the monies that the Buyer has paid to the Seller. ALLERGIES The Cake is made in premises where nuts, sesame, celery, crustaceans, mustard, milk, gluten and eggs are used therefore the Cake could contain traces of these. It is the responsibility of the Buyer to inform its guests that traces of allergens could be present in the Cake.

DAMAGES

Collection by the Buyer The Seller takes photographs of the Cake from all angles before the Cake leaves the Seller’s premises. For Cake collected from the Seller, the Seller requires a signed collection note by the person collecting confirming that the Cake was handed over in perfect condition. The Seller does not accept any liability for loss or damage to the Cake following collection.

DELIVERY & SET UP BY THE SELLER TO THE EVENT VENUE

For Cake delivered to venues a delivery and set up fee is payable and is included in the invoice.   The Seller will take photographs of the Cake from all angles upon delivery to the venue and after set up.   The Seller is not liable for any loss or damage to the Cake once it has been delivered to the venue, and set up. For the avoidance of doubt, consumption of the Cake is evidence that the Cake is fit for the purpose supplied.

CAKE STAND HIRE

For sole hire of a cake stand (ie, not part of a wedding cake booking), a £100 cash deposit is required. The Buyer accepts responsibility for the cake stand whilst it is at their venue or in their possession. The cake stand must be returned to the Seller in within 4 days of the Event. In the event of damage to the cake stand the cash deposit will not be refunded. Should the cake stand be damaged, broken or lost, the Buyer will be required to reimburse the Seller for the cost of the replacement.

PUBLICITY

The Seller is entitled to use any image or photograph of the Cake (taken by the Seller) for use in its publicity and promotional material, including publication in wedding magazines at a later date.
