Terms and Conditions

Client Contract - Deposit required

Your order becomes reserved only when a 50% booking retainer is received. This is paid to reserve your date and is NON-REFUNDABLE in the event of a cancellation. However, if you need to change dates or move your event, please contact me and I'll be happy to make accommodating arrangements to the best of my abilities.

Final Payment

The final balance is due prior to pickup or delivery.  If your cake is ordered less than two weeks before the event date, the total amount is due immediately and your order will not be placed until payment is received. The cake will not be provided if final payment is not made.

Cake Changes

Changes to your cake order: size, description, flavors, etc. will be accepted until 2 weeks prior to the event date. After that time period I cannot guarantee any changes but will do my best to accommodate your needs.

Pickup/Delivery and Set-up

Delivery will range from $5-$20.00 for cakes within a 20 mile radius of Sweets_byJay. Greater distances will be charged accordingly.  Unforeseen delays in transit are not grounds for discount or refund. If you plan to pick up your cake, please make arrangements beforehand. Once a pickup time is confirmed, I can not guarantee my availability should you not arrive within a reasonable time window of 30 minutes.

Cancellation Policy

Cakes cancelled prior to 14 days of the event date can be refunded up to 50% of balance paid. The 50% retainer is non-refundable. Cakes cancelled after the 14 day period will not be refunded. If something should occur to affect your scheduled event date, please contact me to discuss options. Communication is key! I will work hard to accommodate you.
