Terms and Conditions

These terms form the basis of the contract between our customer and EdgieEats. These Terms, your Order and your Order confirmation are considered by us to set out the whole agreement between you and us for the sale of baked goods. It is your responsibility to check all details in the order confirmation are complete and accurate as this is the document we work to when completing your order.

Basis of Sale

Any samples, drawings, or descriptions we issue and any descriptions or illustrations contained on our website are issued solely to provide you with an approximate idea of the cakes they describe and remain the property of EdgieEats.

The Cakes

We warrant that on delivery or collection the bakes shall conform to their description as set out in the Order Confirmation, be of satisfactory quality and comply with all food safety, statutory and regulatory requirements in the UK. We will not be held responsible for customer disappointment of the design or the interpretation of the bakes as long as it is made in line with the customer’s pre agreed requirements set out in the order confirmation and will face no consequent liability. It is the customers responsibility to ensure all details within the order confirmation and sketch are correct and meet their exact requirements, if it is for a custom order.

The warranty does not apply to any defect in the bakes arising from wilful damage, accident, negligence by you or any third party.

Our cakes are made in an environment where nuts, egg, milk, gluten and other allergens are present. We cannot guarantee that any cake is entirely allergen free although we make every effort to ensure that allergies are accommodated. A full list of allergens is sent with every custom order.

We cannot guarantee an exact replica of any cake but we will do our best to make it so. Exact colour matches are not guaranteed.

If flowers are used in your custom item, you acknowledge that fresh flowers are not a food product, and may contain pesticides, insects, dirt, or other contaminants and must be removed along with any floristry tape and wire before consuming the cake.

From time to time certain materials for our cakes may become obsolete. This is totally out of our control; however we will do our best to select replacement products to reflect the original design as closely as possible. We reserve the right to replace items with component parts of equal or better quality without consultation.

If your cake contains figures made from sugar paste, whilst edible, we do not advise that they be eaten, due to the possible presence of dowels for reinforcement.

Cakes and bakes should be stored in the refrigerator, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat in the box provided. Celebration cakes and brownie stacks should be consumed as soon as possible, and postal orders, if kept in the fridge, should be eaten within 3 days.


Delivery and Collection

We accept no responsibility for any damage sustained to the cake once it has left our care (either once collected, delivered locally or delivered to the post office).

If local delivery has been requested we will deliver the cake on the day set out in the order confirmation to the address provided. We do not offer specific delivery times so expect the delivery at any point during the selected delivery date. Dates selected on the checkout are when local orders are collected/delivered and postal orders are posted. EdgieEats will always do the best it can to ensure delivery dates agreed are achieved for the provision of the goods or services however the Company cannot accept liability for delays and time shall not be of the essence.

When delivering to a wedding venue, we will contact the venue in advance to arrange a mutually convenient time for delivery. If we set up the wedding cake we shall take a photograph of the cake before leaving and, where possible, obtain a signature from the venue confirming the cake has been received in good condition. Should the venue need to set up the cake themselves we shall explain how the cake is to be displayed and where possible obtain a signature to verify we have done so. Once the cake has been delivered we are unable to accept any liability for any damage sustained to the cake thereafter nor any failure to follow the instructions provided.

Price and Payment

The price of your item is available on the website and delivery/shipping fees are additional costs. Payment is made through the website.

Cancellation, postponement and alterations

In the event of a cancellation by yourselves, charges are as follows;

A full refund can be issued if items are cancelled 7 days in advance to the selected delivery/collection day.

If an order is cancelled within 7 days of delivery/collection, no refund will be given and the order will not be completed.

In the unlikely event that we need to cancel your order any monies paid will be refunded. EdgieEats reserves the right to cancel, vary or suspend the operation of this contract if events occur which are in the nature of force majeure including (without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing): fire, floods, storm, plant breakdown, strike, lock outs, riot, hostilities, non-availability of materials or supplies or any other event outside the control of EdgieEats, and EdgieEats shall not be liable for any breach of contract resulting from such an event.

EdgieEats’ liability (both in contract and tort) in respect of defects in goods or services shall be limited to the issue of a credit note in respect thereof or granting a refund or other such compensatory measures as EdgieEats, at its discretion, considers appropriate in the circumstances and shall be limited to the to the value of the goods or services giving rise to the claim.

EdgieEats shall not under any circumstances be liable for the customer respect of indirect consequential loss or damage or loss of profits, provided always that these conditions do not exclude or restrict EdgieEats statutory liability for death or personal injury arising from any negligence on EdgieEats part or liability imposed by statutory implied terms in Consumer Contracts.

Complaints

Complaints are very rare and due to the amount of work put into each individual cake we take them very seriously. Any issues must be bought to our attention with 48 hours on collection or delivery to give fair opportunity to assess the nature of the complaint.

Both Parties agree to not post any negative information about the other arising out of this Contract or Event on any online forum or website without providing advance written notice of the intended content thereof, and providing the other party with a prior opportunity to resolve any issues between the parties amicably.

Complaints regarding the decoration of celebration cake can be easily repaired so errors of this nature must be pointed out upon delivery/collection so as to give us the opportunity to correct them. Once payment has been handed over this confirms that decoration is as requested and no further claims can be made.

Where the complaint is in regards to the quality of the cake/baked good then the cake, or remainder of the cake/bake, must be returned to us as soon as possible after cutting and within 48 hours of collection/delivery to ensure that we are able to fairly assess the nature of the complaint.

Please note we can only deal with the client who placed the original order.

General Terms

We reserve the right to use images of your cake for any form of advertising including web based promotions, brochures, galleries and competitions. It is advisable that you make a copy of all documentation received from EdgieEats for your own benefit.
