“Nobody here reads email before four o'clock. If it is for this week, ring.”

What happens after you press that
“Pencil, because people change their minds, and I would rather rub it out than argue about it.”

If it is for this week
Do not fill the form in — ring 01639 55 2041 instead. There is nearly always a spare sponge in the back and Nan Peg would rather you had it than nobody did. She will also tell you, at some length, what you should be having instead.

The shop
7 Pennygate, Fiddlewick. Blue door, scalloped awning, between the launderette and the bus stop.
The telephone
01639 55 2041, Tuesday to Saturday, 7am to 4pm. It rings in the back, so give it a while.

Askedatthecountermostweeks
What will delivery cost me and when will it come?
£4 inside five miles of Fiddlewick, £9 for five to twelve miles on a Saturday. The van is out Tuesday to Saturday, nine till one, and Dot gives you a two-hour window by telephone the evening before.
How much notice do you need?
Two days for any big cake, three for the Rose Cake or for piped writing. Buns need none — walk in. If it is urgent, ring rather than filling this in; there is often a spare sponge.
What if it is not right?
Tell us the same day and choose: remade for the next morning, or refunded in full including the delivery. We do not want it back and we will not ask you to photograph it.
Which size for how many people?
18 cm feeds 8 to 10, 22 cm feeds 16 to 18, 26 cm feeds 24 to 28. The Burnt Honey Stack is the same again. Between two sizes, take the bigger one.
Do you take a deposit?
Not until we have agreed what the cake actually is. After that it is half up front for anything over £40, paid in the shop or over the telephone, and the rest when you collect.

Come in on a Tuesday morning when it is quiet, point at things, and Nan Peg will tell you which one is right. She is almost always correct and never tactful.
