In extreme temperatures, over 35' we can not be responsible for cakes that are not in their perfect state, it is extremely difficult to work with fondant icing, ganache and buttercream in these temperatures and especially humidity which causes icing to sweat and stay sticky which makes it impossible to smooth with tools. we will endeavour to do our best in these circumstances but as you can understand these humid hot conditions cause many problems to food items.

We are not responsible for any damage to the cake once set up is complete. You or your venue are responsible for providing a secure suitable table for set up. Cakes need to be kept in a cool room at al times and with air conditioning in warmer weather.

 

Some chocolate covered cakes will require refrigerating until needed, especially in warmer weather, you will be advised.

Fresh flowers are not a food safe product and if chosen this is your responsibility if any problem arises regarding pesticide insects dirt or contaminants.

If you or your representative pick up and set up your own cake, Vines Cakes are not responsible for any damage once collected.
