Once your cake is in my diary, I get rather attached to the idea of actually delivering it.
Saturday morning, after spending a good chunk of the night working on this order, I woke up to discover that a huge part of Gozo had no electricity.
In 40°C+ heat.
My area had somehow been spared so far (thank god 😂 if I had to decorate a cake by candlelight I would, but I'd rather not).
So the cakes were perfectly happy in my fridge. My client, however... not so lucky.
So before delivering, we spent the morning figuring out how on earth she was going to keep 2 cakes + cupcakes cold with no power and no AC.
A few messages, some rearranging and several ice packs later, we had a plan.
I delivered. The cakes survived. The client was happy.
And the power eventually came back... after 24 hours 🙃
Realistically, if I ever cancel your cake, assume I'm actively restrained against my will and call the police.
