<p>Hi,</p>
<p>My cake business is running great and I'm getting a lot of orders. Customers are asking for credit card payment for big orders. I was reluctant but, It looks like I may lose customers if I don't have it. I need to buy a card payment device. What should I look for when I buy? I want a secure and reliable device. My friend advised me to buy a wireless terminal, so it will be easy to carry the device.

The product looks good and promises good performance and security. I am not tech savvy, so please share your suggestions on this. </p>

Need advice. I've been running my little cake business from my house. Mainly baking for friends. Well I was encouraged to start a Facebook page to sell my cakes so I did. This past weekend I filled an order for a customer. They loved the look of the cake but said it tasted horrible. I did two other cakes with the same mix and the customers said they were wonderful.

Need advice. I've been running my little cake business from my house. Mainly baking for friends. Well I was encouraged to start a Facebook page to sell my cakes so I did. This past weekend I filled an order for a customer. They loved the look of the cake but said it tasted horrible. I did two other cakes with the same mix and the customers said they were wonderful. This customer ordered a 3 tier cake made to look like a Minion with little gum paste minions all over it and 2 dozen cupcakes. I charged her $80 for everything. Usually I try to bake fresh but I knew I had several coming up at once so I had baked a week earlier and frozen these cakes. The cupcakes were baked he night before delivery. It was a heavy cake. When the customer served the cake they said it was wet and tasted nasty then they demanded a full refund. In the meantime the customer's mother-in-law went on Facebook and started ranting about how I over charged her daughter and how white people are like that taking advantage of people all the time etc. it has now become a race issue and I'm being slandered on Facebook. She asked all her friends to comment and said they were going to sue me over all their medical bills. Just as a side note the cake had defrosted for two days before it was assembled so it wasn't frozen and it wasn't wet when it was delivered wet cake cannot stand up to the weight on it and will crumble no matter how much support is inside. Anyway this has become a nightmare for me. She even posted a pic I sent the girl from a week earlier of one of the gum paste minions and comments were made that no wonder the cake was nasty it was started that early. As we all know you can't make gum past decorations overnight and have them dry and hold their shape. All that aside does anyone have any advice for me? I'm so upset about this I'm loosing sleep and have gone so far as to take down my Facebook page.

<p>I am getting ready to sell cakepops in a local grocery. I have the permit. So, that's not an issue. What I'm not sure of is how to structure the sale. We are just talking about maybe 50 pops at a time every couple weeks. But, I'm not sure if I should get up front or when I go to replenish, do I give them a bill based on what was sold? Obviously, I'd prefer to get paid up front. But, if they don't sell I don't want them to be stuck with them when they start to go bad. Thoughts?</p>

<p>I'm still in love with cake decorating and the idea of a home based bakery so I have taken the software I created for our bakery and made it available to others in the form of Bakery Butler, bakerybutler.com. </p>
<p>My goal is to enable home bakers to take that next step into making their passion a business by providing support and simple tools for managing the business.</p>
<p>Please take a look and let me know what you think. The software is in a beta testing phase which means you can use it for free while we work out the wrinkles. </p>
<p>Thanks for letting me into the forum. I look forward to meeting you all and talking cake!</p>
