HI all - I know I've seen people mention wedding cake contracts before, and would like some samples if you would? I need to start formulating my own, and would like to get an idea as to what to include.
Thanks so much!

A lot of cake companies have their contract on their website. I just kind of take a look at theirs and see what I like and what I don't like.

No problem. I just googled "cake contracts" and that's what I came up with. I'm sure there are even more. I just didn't feel like going past the first 3 pages.

My advice on cake 'contracts' is to keep it simple.

Life is risk.

I've heard of some of our contracts being pages and pages long with clause after clause of potential 'what ifs'.

Me, I just have the particulars, the details of the order itself, lots of phone numbers of principals in the families and of the vendors, money details, no refunds, due dates, size of serving, that I take control & make it to the best of my ability, that cancelation must be in writing.

I have two additonal sheets of paper one that I write ideas down on during the consult and the other I detail a list of 'homework' for the bride (like get color swatch, phone # of florist, etc.)

That's about it.

Cake order ideas for you.

I just got a pad of order blanks from an office store--no worries--no big deal.
