Booking for cake makers
A bespoke cake starts with a conversation, not a price tag. Soopaspace turns an enquiry into a quote, holds the date with a deposit and invoices the balance, so your orders run on a system instead of a notebook and a full inbox.
Free to start with your booking page, bookings and clients. Everything else is one paid plan: £9.99/month billed yearly, or £12.99 monthly.

From a cake idea to a held date
A customer enquires from your page with what they have in mind, you send a clear quote for the cake, and a deposit on the quote holds the date. A wedding or a big birthday is booked in for real, not pencilled in on a maybe.
- Customers enquire straight from your page
- You send a tidy quote for the cake
- A card deposit on the quote holds the date
- The balance invoiced when the cake is ready
Talk it through first
Offer a consultation or a tasting a customer books at no charge, so you can talk through flavours, tiers and colours before anything is agreed. It books like any other slot, lands in your diary, and gives you both a clear picture before the quote.
- A free consultation or tasting, booked online
- Nothing to pay to come and talk it through
- Flavours and design agreed up front
- A clear brief before you quote
Paid, and vouchers on top
Turn an order into an invoice the customer pays by card from the email, with paid, part-paid and overdue tracked for you. Sell gift vouchers from the same page for a birthday cake, money in before you weigh out a thing.
- Invoice an order, paid by card from the email
- Paid, part-paid and overdue all tracked
- A polite reminder chases the slow ones
- Gift vouchers sold straight from your page

Common questions
- Can I quote for a bespoke cake rather than list fixed prices?
- Yes. A customer enquires with what they want, you send a quote for that cake, and a card deposit on the quote holds the date. The balance is invoiced when the cake is ready.
- How do I take the money for a wedding cake booked months ahead?
- A card deposit is taken when the order is placed, which holds the date however far ahead it is, and the balance is invoiced nearer the day or on collection.
