Stop Second-Guessing Your Cake Orders: How Clear Boundaries Lead to Better Clients & Less Stress

Aug 01, 2025

 Running a baking business takes so much more than just talent in the kitchen.
You’ve got the skills. You’ve got the passion. You’ve even got the clients.
But let’s be honest…

Some cake orders make you want to scream into your piping bag. 😅

You know the ones:

  • The vague “Can I just pick it up around lunchtime?” messages

  • The cheeky “Can you do it any cheaper?” DMs

  • The dreaded “Oh… I didn’t realise that wasn’t included”

🙃 Sound familiar?

I’ve been there more times than I can count, feeling flustered, flaked on, and far too nice to say no (or charge more). But here’s what I learnt the hard way:

Confident boundaries create better bookings.

When you set the tone, clients rise to meet it.
When you get clear on your process, policies, and pricing… your stress levels plummet.
When you stick to your standards, your confidence skyrockets.

That’s why I created the Cake Order Confidence Pack

If you’ve ever found yourself second-guessing how to reply to a difficult client, chasing down missing info, or quietly resenting an underpaid order, this one’s for you.

The Cake Order Confidence Pack is a super affordable (£7!) digital toolkit designed to help home bakers like you:

✔️ Set clear order terms (without sounding scary or stiff)
✔️ Reply to awkward DMs with confidence and clarity
✔️ Collect the right info upfront (so you're not chasing it at 10pm)
✔️ Protect your time, energy, and sanity

It’s not about being rude — it’s about being professional.

And when your boundaries are clear, your biz feels less chaotic.
You stress less. You get fewer awkward questions.
And you can finally focus on the part you actually love, baking beautiful things and delighting your dream clients.
