POLICIES

OUR TERMS AND CONDITIONS

REFUND AND RETURN POLICY

1. We offer returns or refunds if we have made an error or if our products arrive in an unsatisfactory condition. We will work with you to correct your order and make things right as quickly as possible.

2. Full refund inclusive of deposit will be made (where it seems fit) if we have made an error.

3. We do not, however offer refunds on orders that have not been picked up. 

4. Due to the tedious, handcrafted nature of our products, we are unable to provide refunds or exchanges on custom orders in terms of design.

5. Once you or a designated party has picked up an order and paid for it, it is considered "accepted" – we will ask to make sure that everything is correct such as the design, spelling, etc. Refunds requested due to decorating style, writing, color shade, or general design will not be honored after accepting your cake. In some instances you may bring the cake back in for design adjustments but this is an additional charge if the cake has been taken.

6. All products are the responsibility of the customer once it leaves our shop. We are not responsible for any damage occurring to the cake during transport, set-up or any time thereafter. You will be given instructions on how to carry, transport, and store your cake upon pick up. Keep in mind that cakes are very fragile and damages can happen if not handled properly – such as cracks, smudges, melted frosting, etc. We only give refunds in accordance with refund policies stated below.

7. Cake flavor and texture is subjective. Refunds requested due to flavor or texture after the cake has been accepted and picked up will be done accordingly if there have been a mistake (where it seems fit). You may qualify for a percentage of a store credit if the product is brought back and the quality of the cake flavor or texture is determined to not meet our standards. Cakes must be brought back to us within a timely manner, preferably with 24 hours of pick up - please call or email us promptly to let us know of the issue. Quality determination is solely at the discretion of Mangkiu Bakes. Please understand that we cannot issue refunds for cakes that have already been completely eaten. *Store credit percents are based on how quickly the cake is returned, how much has been consumed, and what we determine the quality to be. Store credits of any kind will not be issued to customers who do not contact us within 48 hours. 

8. We want you to be satisfied with your purchase. If we have made a mistake, please call us and we will do everything we can to correct any errors.

​

KEEPING CAKES OUTDOORS

1. Any cake placed outside during an event has the possibility of melting or deforming due to the heat. We are not liable for a cake once it has been delivered or picked up.

2. We will discuss better options — such as keeping the cake displayed inside or using an air-conditioned tent — and may not agree to conditions we are not comfortable with.

3. Most people don’t know what can happen to cakes outside in the heat, so kindly let us know and understand the consequences if you choose to proceed with your orders.

1.  If you come to our store for pick up or if upon delivery the cake does not meet your expectations, we will give you a refund accordingly.

This is a “take it, or leave it” policy. We are not responsible for any expense you may incur for replacing our cake.

3. We will give you a cash refund if we fail to deliver or finish your cake on the date and time stated on your contract for your wedding, or event. Further, if customer provides wrong date, time or address for delivery, we will NOT provide a refund. **We will not be responsible for any additional expenses that you incur as a result of our failure to deliver the cake. Our liability is limited to the contracted value of the cake.**
