Bakeries
A bakery is two businesses: fast case sales in the morning and custom orders with deposits and pickup dates. One POS has to do both.
Industries
What matters day to day
Case sales
Fast by-the-item checkout with a morning rush layout.
Custom orders
Deposits, details, pickup dates and balance on collection.
Weight pricing
Scale-based items priced by the pound.
Pre-orders
Holiday order taking with capacity limits.
Wholesale
Invoicing for cafe and restaurant accounts.
Waste tracking
Know what's going in the bin at close.
Custom cake orders need structure
Order details, deposit taken, pickup date, balance due. When that lives in the POS instead of a binder, nobody loses a wedding cake order.
- Deposit at order
- Pickup date and reminders
- Order notes and photos
- Balance collected at pickup
Holiday capacity control
Thanksgiving and Christmas can break a bakery. Online pre-orders with a hard cap per day protects the kitchen from a promise it can't keep.
Wholesale is a different workflow
Standing weekly orders to cafes belong on invoices with terms, not at the register. Both live in the same system with the right setup.
Clover or Square
Clover or Square?
We sell both, so the recommendation comes from your workflow instead of our inventory.
