Terms and Conditions

Hello, and welcome to dishandspoonfood.co.uk (the ‘site’ or ‘website’), home of ‘And The Dish Ran Away With The Spoon’

By using this site you are agreeing to follow and abide by our terms and conditions and privacy policy. Throughout these terms, we will refer to ourselves as ‘and the dish ran away with the spoon’, ‘dish and spoon food’, ‘us’, ‘we’ or ‘our’ – this means ‘And The Dish Ran Away With The Spoon’ Limited. We may revise the Terms and conditions and Privacy Policy at any time without notice to you.

1 Prices & Descriptions
All prices are as stated on the website, but we reserve the right at any time to revise the price of goods without notice. We have taken care in preparing the content of this website to ensure all goods have been fairly described. However, actual goods may slightly differ to those described. Weights, sizes and dimensions are approximate.

2 Availability
All orders are subject to acceptance and availability. If the Goods you have ordered are not available on that day, we will contact you by e-mail or phone (if you have given us details). You will have the option either to wait until the item is available or to cancel your order.

3 Order notice periods
For weddings, we need at least 2 weeks notice. For most other orders, please give us a much notice as possible to avoid disappointment! We may have to refuse your order if there isn’t enough time for us to source ingredients and bake your cakes.

4 Minimum orders
Our minimum order is a dozen cupcakes or brownies (two dozen for weddings). Please ask us about minimum orders for other items

5 Payment terms
We accept payment by cash, paypal or cheque (made payable to ‘And The Dish Ran Away With The Spoon Ltd’). For most orders we will require a deposit of at least 50% of the total price.

6 Delivery charges
We offer delivery to Manchester and the rest of the North West of England for a small charge (prices will be provided when you order). It might not be possible for us to deliver to some locations (we will confirm whether we deliver to you when you order)

7 Delivery
We will deliver the goods to the address you specify for delivery in your order. It is important that this address is accurate. Please be precise about where you would like the goods left if the intended recipient is out when we deliver. We cannot accept any liability for any loss or damage to the goods once they have been delivered in accordance with your delivery instructions (unless this is caused by our negligence).

We will aim to deliver the goods by the date quoted for delivery but delivery times are not guaranteed. If delivery is delayed due to any cause beyond our reasonable control, the delivery date will be extended by a reasonable period and we will contact you to arrange an alternative time.

You will become the owner of the goods you have ordered when they have been delivered to you or your chosen recipient. Once goods have been delivered to you they will be held at your own risk and we will not be liable for their loss or destruction.

8 Cake stand hire
Our 7-tier stand costs £30 which includes the set-up, styling and arrangement of your cakes at the venue. An additional deposit is also required which is fully refunded on safe return of the stand. You agree that damaged or missing pieces will be charged to you at their replacement cost, including any postage/handling charged to us by the supplier. We will take these costs from your deposit. To help prevent damage, we agree that you may return the stands to us unwashed, for which you will not be charged above the hire fee.

Hire of cake stands is at our discretion. The stands remain our property, and you agree to return the stands to us in complete and without damage by the agreed date.

The stands may be used only for display of our cakes and/or cupcakes. You agree that replacement of parts or entire stands due to staining or other damage as a result of other food or non-food items being placed on the stands will be charged to you.

9 Contract
Full payment or payment of a deposit is required when you order. Your payment represents an offer to purchase. Our acceptance of your order completes the contract between us.

10 Risk and ownership
Risk of damage to or loss of the goods passes to you at the time of delivery to you, or if you fail to take delivery at the agreed time, the time when we tried to deliver. You will only own the goods once they have been successfully delivered and when we have received cleared payment in full. Goods supplied are not for resale.

11 Cancellation rights
Under the Distance Selling Regulations you do not have the legal right to cancel orders of made-to-order items, which includes all our cakes and cupcakes. However, if we have not yet ordered ingredients for them, we may cancel your order at our discretion.

12 Cancellation by us
We reserve the right to cancel the contract between us if:
We have insufficient stock to deliver the goods you have ordered;
We do not deliver to your area; or
One or more of the goods you ordered was listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical error or an error in the pricing information received by us from our suppliers.
If we do cancel your contract we will notify you by e-mail and will refund any payment you have made to us within 30 days of your order.

13 Liability
If you do not receive goods ordered by you within 7 days of the date for which you ordered them, we will have no liability to you unless you notify us in writing at our contact address of the problem within 60 days of the date on which you ordered the goods.

If you notify a problem to us under this condition, our only obligation will be, at your option:
To make good any shortage or non-delivery;
To refund to you the amount paid by you for the goods in question in whatever way we choose.

Both parties shall only be liable under this contract for losses, which are a reasonably foreseeable consequence of the relevant breach of contract
