Weddings

 

At Jin Patisserie, we understand that this is a monumental occasion that is often also very stressful.  We want to make your cake order as easy and enjoyable as possible.

 

• Jin Patisserie charges per slice, determined by the number of guests attending the wedding – 1 cake slice per guest.  Prices begin at $9/slice.
• During consultation, there is a sampling fee of $7.50/person, which enables guests to taste 3 different cake bodies and 3 different cake fillings.
• For different flavors in tiers, there is an additional fee per flavor--from $100 and up.  For orders with 200+ guests, there will be no additional fee.
• Delivery rates are per mile and dependant on the gas rate. Rate includes transportation from Jin Patisserie’s Abbot Kinney location to the drop-off location of the cake and back to Jin Patisserie, as calculated from MapQuest.  Other costs have been factored in such as labor, time, traffic and set-up.

 

Contact Jin Patisserie (email, phone, or in person) to set up an appointment for an initial consultation for your custom order.

 

All consultations must be in person.  Jin Patisserie will not send its cake portfolio over email.  

 

Suggested ideas or items to bring are:

• Occasion date – must be 2 or 3 months in advance;  rush orders are also possible, but please call in to inquire about availability
• Approximate number of guests
• General shape of cake—i.e. round or square?
• Location of the event, including directions to your venue, if opting for delivery, or
• Date of collection
• Your own items you want to incorporate, i.e. specific flowers
• Specific color schemes
• Any other ideas or details you would like included in your cake design such as color swatches, invitations, details from your wedding dress, etc.
• Once the details have been finalized by both parties, you have up to 2 weeks before the event to change or cancel the order.
• There is absolutely no shipping.  We will only do in-state deliveries. 

 

• A 50% deposit is required after the finalized consultation.  All major credit cards are accepted: Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.  Cash is also accepted.  No checks, please.
• Upon delivery or collection, the deposit will be credited to your total costs.  Payment is expected in full on the day of delivery or collection.

 

Cancelations and Refunds

• Cancelations up to 2 weeks prior to delivery or collection will receive 25% of their original deposit back.  For instance, if your total estimated custom order cost is $800, you will pay a $400 or 50% deposit.  If you cancel prior to the 2 week mark, you will receive $100 back, which is 25% of $400, the amount of your deposit, not $200.
• Cancelations after the 2 week cutoff mark will forfeit the entire deposit.

 

• We want to assure the utmost quality of your cake.  However, Jin Patisserie is not responsible for any loss or damage to your cake once the cake passes hands to the customer or after it leaves our premises.
• We will not be held responsible for a tardy arrival of the cake if weather or road conditions are poor, if there is traffic, or if other such incidents occur.
