I tell you, sometimes I think the problem is people are not even thinking, the nerve to ask for something like that it just blows my mind |

I say: "Sure!! So we have an order for TWO cakes ... one now and one in July. Your total cost for both cakes will be ...... " |

I would tell her, sure, and I will just stick it in my freezer until you are ready for it to be delivered. |

you must not have the magic button on your oven that says pop one out for free? Nothing actually amazes me anymore...I had a lady order a cake last week, she called me the week before that to order and the comment she gave me (which I thought was the best) I got your name from a friend and you were highly recommended....I want to order a cake, but don't want to spend a lot of money, even though I am sure your cakes are worth it, I would really rather put the money into the decorations....are you crazy....I don't know about you guys but when I go to a party I am looking for food to eat, not balloons and streamers....guess maybe that is why I am not skinny been eating the food all this time instead of the decorations!!! So I felt like telling her you would rather have everyone looking at some crappy decorations, rather than making them happy with cake? Whatever I am just the baker right? Sorry to vent now back on topic...I would give her a sketch and tell her this is what it will look like, and if some reason she doesn't have faith in you offer to make a small...I mean tiny version of the cake for a fee of course...If there is more money involved I am sure her answer will be no..most people are cheap and they are always the biggest pains!!! Good luck! |

Thanks summernoelle! Of course you can copy it! I got the idea from a couple cakes on here! I actually just had a lady see it on facebook and she asked if I could make it for her this weekend... pretty short notice! |

I wish I had overheard the conversation. I would have loved to see the expression on your face. So.... what did you say... and what did she say..?  |

Well, I just had my laugh for the day!!! I can't believe some people.
I was going to be a smart .... and say: What's the matter haven't you ever heard of "good customer service?" but, I just got done baking several cakes and am too tired to find that funny.  |
