We are pleased to offer complementary cake tastings to potential clients for cakes of 65 slices or more. However, because of some of the problems we have had we may need to start charging for tastings. Please help us to avoid this.
Bakeries offer complementary tastings to give you the chance to discuss the cake you want, obtain detailed pricing, and chose cake flavors. At Bewitching Elegance we are very open about our pricing and the services that we offer and we will gladly share this information before you take the time to visit us. We also make every effort to work within your budget. Lately we have had experiences with potential customers who are interested in a very small order that would not qualify for the free tasting yet they have previously stated the order would be for significantly more slices. Many people are also taking too much advantage of the generosity of not only Bewitching Elegance but other bakeries by scheduling as many as a dozen complementary tastings. (This is not an exaggeration.) Please keep in mind that these tastings are expensive time and money investments for the vendor. Bewitching Elegance makes each tasting fresh and literally spends as many as 5 hours preparing for some tastings and will often make special trips into the store to accommodate the client's schedule.
We understand that you want to make a wise decision and feel that you indeed should take advantage of complementary tastings. However, please respect that if these trends continue, especially in our current economy, vendors will no longer be able to offer such services. We ask that you please be reasonably sure that you are interested in placing an order with us before you book your tasting. We do know that you have options and you should feel free to exercise them. We truly appreciate your consideration of our services.
Thank you for reading.
