Terms and Conditions

THE SALE AND/OR DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS CONTAINING ALCOHOL TO PERSONS UNDER 21 YEARS OF AGE IS UNLAWFUL.

Product Freshness

All products are best when immediately consumed. All products are made to order. We do not keep inventory in stock. All cupcakes are made fresh and shipped frozen. Cupcakes contain dairy and must be refrigerated at all times.  Do not refreeze. Before consuming, please make sure that all cupcakes defrost to room temperature to re-soften the frosting. To defrost, leave the cupcake on the counter for one to three hours (depending upon the environment). Never defrost in a microwave or oven. Please bring our products to room temperature before eating.

Preventing Alcohol Evaporation

To prevent the alcohol from evaporating out of our products, please transfer all products (including cupcakes and pies) to airtight containers. If you are keeping the products in the provided cardboard or plastic container, be sure to wrap the entire container tightly and securely with a few layers of food safe plastic wrap.  All products, whether refrigerated, frozen, or left at room temperature should be stored airtight to minimize alcohol evaporation.

  • Placing products in a Ziploc® bag is NOT enough to prevent alcohol evaporation as these bags can never truly get airtight.
  • Keep all products airtight at all times until ready to serve. Wrap all products tightly in food grade plastic wrap and seal in air tight containers.
