Policy and Disclaimers

Sadly, it will happen. We are only human and issues do arise. Mama Duck’s bakery will work with you to the best of our ability to accommodate your needs. Below are some key pieces of information of which you should be aware.

CHANGES TO ORDER:

How far in advance can changes to an order be made? 
Changes to number of items purchased or division of types of items purchased (ie; change from 6 peanut butter 6 chocolate chip) can be made up to 3 days prior to delivery.
What kind of changes can be made and when?
   Changes to location or date of delivery can be made up to 24 hours prior to delivery.

CANCELLATIONS:

How far in advance can you cancel?
  Cancellations on paid orders can only be made up to 5 days before a delivery. Ingredients need to be purchased and planning made to accommodate orders as I am the only baker, so
   cancellations would be detrimental to the organized structure of my business.
How much money is returned if able to cancel?  
If any special items were required for the order; such as frosting sheets with designs, or decorations, there will be no refund for those costs.
Remainder can be refunded if requested 5 days prior to delivery date.
Are they able to use the money paid for a future order?
   Within the 5 day time frame, a refund will not be issued. However, a credit toward a future order can be applied.

REFUNDS:

What warrants a refund?
   A refund will only be given for non-specialty items where a request has been made 5 days prior to delivery.
How much of the order will be refunded for these situations?
   Full refunds (minus special items) will be given prior to 5 days before delivery.
Situation 1: Issues with taste.
   Although I have yet to encounter this, I will consider people have different likes and dislikes when it comes to flavoring. The bakery will give a 1 time 50% refund in this instance upon return of
   order.
Situation 2: Customer drops or damages order after delivery.
   No refunds will be given.
Situation 3: Design doesn’t meet the clients’ expectations.
   Proofs with be sent prior to making items. So there will be approval required before proceeding. No refunds will be given in this instance.
Situation 4: Cookie care instructions were not followed.
   Cookies, like many baked goods, can be kept at room temperature, and out of direct sunlight for no more than 3 days. If issues occur because this was not adhered to, no refunds will be given.
