The Four Letter Baker is an independent cake business based in Northallerton, North Yorkshire. All cakes are handmade by Michaela Ryder, specialising in bespoke buttercream celebration and wedding cakes.

By placing an order or paying a deposit, you agree to the following terms and conditions.

QUOTES + PRICING
Each order is individually quoted based on your specific requirements, design, size and any additional extras.

A minimum order value of £80 applies to celebration cake orders.

Wedding cakes are quoted individually, with prices starting from £325. Delivery and set-up are quoted separately where required.

DEPOSITS + BOOKING
A 50% non-refundable deposit is required to secure a celebration cake booking.

A 30% non-refundable deposit is required to secure a wedding cake booking.

Your date is not confirmed until the deposit has been received.

FINAL PAYMENT
For celebration cakes, the remaining balance must be paid no later than one week before collection.

For wedding cakes, the remaining balance is due one month before the wedding date.

Please refer to your invoice for payment details. Your order cannot be confirmed for collection, delivery or set-up until payment has been received in full.

DESIGNS + INSPIRATION
You’re very welcome to send inspiration images, colour palettes and other details from your celebration or wedding. These will be used as a starting point, but all cakes will be reimagined in my own style rather than directly copied.

Wedding cake designs are created specifically for each couple and may take inspiration from your flowers, stationery, styling, venue and the overall feel of your day.

WEDDING DELIVERY + SET-UP
Wedding cake delivery and set-up can be arranged and will be quoted based on the venue, distance and complexity of the cake or installation.

It is the couple’s responsibility to provide accurate venue details and ensure that suitable access and an agreed set-up time have been arranged with the venue.

Once the cake has been delivered and set up in the agreed location, responsibility for its care passes to the venue/couple.

COLLECTION
Celebration cake collection is available from:

Serve Studio, Northallerton

Collection times will be confirmed when your order is booked. If you need to collect outside the agreed collection hours, this may sometimes be possible subject to availability and may incur an additional charge.

CAKE CARE + RESPONSIBILITY
A cake care guide is provided with every order.

For cakes collected from the studio, once your cake has left the premises, The Four Letter Baker cannot accept responsibility for damage caused during transportation, storage or handling.

For wedding cakes delivered and set up by The Four Letter Baker, every care will be taken to ensure the cake is safely installed before handover.

ALLERGIES + DIETARY REQUIREMENTS
Please inform me of any allergies or dietary requirements when placing your order.

While I will do my best to accommodate dietary requirements where possible, my kitchen handles allergens including nuts, dairy/milk, gluten, eggs and soya. As such, I cannot guarantee that any order is entirely free from allergens.
