Cake design
At Mimi’s Treats & Sprinkles we understand how important your celebration cake and cupcakes are to you and your loved ones. When asked to create custom cakes and cupcakes we will consider all your wishes and discuss the design until you are happy.
In the instance where a customer provides a photo of a cake design we will use the image as inspiration.. However, we will not exactly replicate the image as we prefer to use our own creativity to provide you with your own unique cake and cupcakes. This includes photos of any of Mimi’s Treats & Sprinkles own work. Several factors such as materials, lighting and conditions could mean that the cake design may vary.
Whilst we will do our best to make sure your cakes and cupcakes look as fabulous as possible it is food and the quality of the taste and texture is always at the forefront of our minds. This could sometimes mean that the design might need to be altered to preserve/protect the integrity of the cake.
Please be aware that Mimi’s Treats & Sprinkles does not hold a licence to sell alcohol. This means that although we can bake cakes with alcohol in them we cannot by law purchase any alcohol to be used in the design. Should your design require this you are welcome to purchase the alcohol yourself and we can place it onto the cake.
Non-edible items
Some of our cakes may contain inedible items such as dowels, supports, wires in sugar flowers etc. The customer will be advised of any inedible items, and it will be their responsibility to ensure removal of the items prior to consumption.
Use of photos
Mimi's Treats & Sprinkles reserves the right to photograph your cake or other treats for our own reference, display or promotional advertising without compensation to the customer.
Travelling with your cake
When travelling with your cake/cupcakes, care should be taken to prevent any damage occurring to the cake. We advise that cakes should be placed on a flat surface, either in the boot or the foot well of the car and with the air con on. Please do not travel with the cake on the car seat as the slant of the seat may cause damage to the cake. We also advise that you do not travel with the cake on your lap as the cake is more likely to be damaged if sharp braking etc occurs. Please take extra care when driving with your cake. Mimi's Treats & Sprinkles cannot take any responsibility for damage to cakes when collected and transported by the customer.
