Please note that we are not able to offer any refunds without proof of evidence.

If this is not possible we will offer some or all of your money back subject to our investigation from the proof of evidence.  Please state your order number in all correspondence.

Upon cake collection or delivery, customers will be asked to inspect their product and must sign to confirm they are happy with their order e.g. size, design, wording, condition and quality. Any issues must be communicated, as above, within 24 hours from receipt with images as supporting evidence.

By agreeing to our Terms & Conditions, you will take all appropriate action to follow our cake handling, storage and serving guidelines.  Peggy Porschen will not be held responsible for issues arising from the guidelines not being correctly followed e.g. exposure to warm temperatures due to the cake being unrefrigerated for too long (buttercream or icing may melt) or being consumed too cold (cake may appear dry).

E.g. refunds or compensation will not be granted on account of personal taste, as this is a subjective matter. Nor will refunds be issued where evidence is clear of incorrect handling, storage or serving. 

Equally, any issues raised after the 48 hr grace period may not be eligible for a refund or compensation. 

Refunds will only be issued to the original credit or debit card account used by you to make the online purchase. For any such refund, legal ownership of the goods will immediately revert to us.

Please note sections 4.6 and 4.9 above regarding the potential for slight colour variations in our handmade items. Due to the nature of our handmade offering, refunds will not be permitted on account of a reasonable variation in colouring between what has been viewed online and what has been received by the customer.

Should you receive a damaged or wrong item, please notify us within 24 hours and send us a photo of the damaged/wrong item by email to hello@peggyporschen.com .
