Custom Cakes & Retail POS for Bakeries
Publish each size as its own menu item, take advance payments for wedding cakes, and close a retail counter queue in seconds.
A bakery counter runs on two very different jobs at once. The retail shelf needs a fast, single-price checkout for a box of pastries, while a wedding cake needs a conversation, an agreed weight, a design reference photo and an advance payment. Most bakeries try to do both on a till, and the custom orders end up in a notebook.
MenuTap gives every weight its own menu item, so a 0.5 kg and a 2 kg cake are separate SKUs with their own price and stock. Custom orders get a photo and a note against the order, the customer can pay an advance digitally, and the retail counter still bills at counter speed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I charge different prices for different cake weights?
Create a separate menu item for each weight, such as a 1 kg chocolate cake and a 2 kg chocolate cake, each with its own price and stock. MenuTap stores a single price per item, so separate items is the intended way to do this.
Can I collect an advance for a wedding cake?
Yes. Take the advance through UPI or a payment gateway when the order is confirmed, and record the remaining balance to be collected at pickup.
Does the retail counter need a table for every sale?
No. The quick-counter billing flow handles counter sales without a table, which suits a busy bakery shop where most orders are takeaway.
Can customers send a cake design photo?
Yes. A reference photo and design note can be attached to the custom order so the kitchen has the agreed design on screen.
How do I keep pastry stock accurate?
Each flavour and size is a separate item, so stock deducts as it is sold and you can see which items are running low before a busy weekend.
