Please read this policy before placing an order. Cakes and bakery products are freshly prepared, customised and perishable.

Last updated: 31 July 2026
Important information

Cake Spot sells freshly prepared and perishable food products. Products cannot generally be returned after delivery because of a change of mind. Genuine concerns involving incorrect, damaged, missing or unusable products will be reviewed fairly.

1. Order Confirmation

An order is confirmed after Cake Spot accepts the order and receives the required advance or full payment, where applicable.

Customers must verify:

  • Product and flavour
  • Cake weight
  • Egg or eggless selection
  • Message written on the cake
  • Selected add-ons
  • Delivery or pickup date and time
  • Delivery address
  • Customer mobile number
  • Selected branch
  • Customisation instructions

2. Standard Cake Cancellation

A standard cake order may be eligible for cancellation when the request is received at least 24 hours before the confirmed delivery or pickup time and preparation has not started.

Same-day and urgent orders cannot normally be cancelled after confirmation.

3. Customised Cake Cancellation

Customised cakes include:

  • Theme cakes
  • Photo cakes
  • Fondant cakes
  • Designer cakes
  • Wedding and engagement cakes
  • Character cakes
  • Name or age-specific cakes
  • Cakes prepared using reference images
  • Cakes requiring special decorations

Customised cake orders cannot normally be cancelled after design approval, ingredient purchase or preparation has started.

An advance payment used for ingredients, edible prints, toppers, decorations or preparation may be non-refundable.

4. Refund Eligibility

A refund, replacement or other suitable resolution may be provided after verification when:

  • A different product was delivered
  • The product was materially damaged before delivery
  • A paid product or add-on was missing
  • The product was unfit for consumption at delivery
  • Cake Spot could not fulfil the confirmed order
  • The customer was charged more than once
  • Payment succeeded but no valid order was created

5. Non-Refundable Cases

  • Change of mind after preparation has started
  • Personal taste or sweetness preferences
  • Incorrect options selected by the customer
  • Incorrect or incomplete delivery address
  • Incorrect customer mobile number
  • Recipient unavailability
  • Delay caused by incorrect directions
  • Damage occurring after successful delivery
  • Improper storage after delivery or pickup
  • Failure to refrigerate the product when required
  • Products substantially consumed before verification
  • Minor handmade design or colour variations

6. Handmade Cake Variations

Cakes are handmade products. A completed cake may not be an exact copy of a website image or reference image.

Minor variations in colour, decoration, flowers, cream finish, writing, size or shade are normal and do not automatically qualify for a refund.

7. Reporting a Problem

Incorrect, damaged, missing or unusable products should be reported within 2 hours of delivery or pickup.

  1. Provide your order number
  2. Provide your name and mobile number
  3. Describe the issue clearly
  4. Share clear photographs or videos
  5. Share a photograph of the packaging
  6. Provide the payment reference when relevant

8. Replacement

Where practical, Cake Spot may offer a correction or replacement instead of a refund.

Replacement availability depends on preparation time, product availability, delivery location and the nature of the issue.

9. Refund Processing

Online payments

Approved refunds will normally be initiated to the original payment method.

Cash on delivery

Approved cash-on-delivery refunds may be provided through UPI, bank transfer, store credit or another agreed method.

Advance payments

The refundable amount depends on preparation status and costs already incurred for ingredients, design, decorations and customisation.

Cake Spot generally aims to initiate approved refunds within 5–7 business days. Additional bank or payment provider processing time may apply.

10. Failed or Duplicate Payments

When an amount is deducted but the order is not confirmed, customers should check their bank statement and Cake Spot account.

Contact us with the transaction reference if the amount is not automatically reversed or the order does not appear.

11. Delivery Delays

Delivery times may be affected by traffic, weather, road restrictions, festival demand, vehicle issues, incorrect addresses or circumstances outside our control.

A reasonable delay does not automatically qualify for a full refund. Serious delays will be reviewed individually.

12. Product Storage

  • Keep the cake level during transportation
  • Protect the cake from direct sunlight and heat
  • Refrigerate the cake when advised
  • Do not place heavy objects on the cake box

Cake Spot is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or storage after successful delivery.

13. Allergen Information

Customers must inform Cake Spot about relevant food allergies before confirming an order.

Our kitchen may handle milk, nuts, gluten, soy, eggs and other allergens. We cannot guarantee that products are completely free from traces of allergens unless specifically confirmed.
