This is not Burger King...

I understand people have busy lives and they forget things, but really...

If your child/significant other/relative's birthday is THAT important to you and that you have a nice looking cake with the flavors and design YOU want, would it not stand to reason that you make the time to pre-order it? I work in a grocery store bakery and we do not have a large staff. So when you storm into our department wanting a custom cake made fresh in front of you, I will have to decline. I'm sorry we do not have the flavor and icing combo you want in the freezer case, but if you need it this moment, you're left with little choice. I cannot simply shove off another person's order to make yours. I have an obligation to them when they placed their order in ahead of time. Some people even order MONTHS in advance to ensure they get JUST the cake they want. And we are happy to oblige them!

This isn't Burger King. We are not a fast food joint. If you want a cake, we need prior notice to plan and organize. The three of us have a very large bakery to work and run, not just cakes. Please be considerate and give us a day notice. We will be glad to make you a cake.
