Cake order software: custom cake orders, deposits & pickups

Cake makers: custom orders without the Instagram DMs. Designs, deposits and pickups in one.

Orders in DMs, quotes for every design and no-shows on pickup day. We build cake order systems that take the details and the deposit up front.

Looking for custom cake order software?

Custom cakes need lots of details: size, flavours, fillings, design and the date. Collecting them over messages is painful. We build order forms and calendars that do it properly.

Wollopit builds ordering, bookings, menus and websites for cake makers around how your venue actually runs. We connect the POS and tools you already use, cut out the commissions you don't need to pay and look after the lot on our own servers, so you can get back on the floor.

06How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your cake business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

07Questions

FAQ

Things cake makers ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can customers upload inspiration photos?

Yes. Customers upload photos with their order so you see exactly what they want before you confirm the price.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your cake business. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Will it work with our POS?

Usually, yes. We connect to common systems like Square and Lightspeed so orders, menus and stock line up. If yours is holding you back we'll talk options first.

Do we stop paying commission?

On orders and bookings that come through your own website, yes. You pay your card fees and that's it, instead of handing over a cut of every sale.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most cake makers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
