Websites for Bakeries and Cake Shops: Taking Orders Online
What bakeries and home bakers need on their websites: menus with prices, custom cake orders, delivery areas and timings, online payments, galleries and local SEO for "cake near me" searches.
On this page
- Show menus with weights, prices and eggless options, plus real photos.
- Offer custom cake forms and online ordering with delivery slots.
- Galleries by occasion, licences, cut-off times and local SEO drive orders.
Cakes are often ordered for occasions with fixed dates, so customers need to know quickly what you offer, whether you can deliver in time, and how to order. A good bakery website takes those orders for you.
Menu and prices
- Cakes by type and weight (0.5 kg, 1 kg), with prices
- Eggless and dietary options clearly labelled
- Cupcakes, pastries, cookies, breads and hampers
- Real photos of your products
Custom cake orders
A custom order form asking for occasion, date, weight, flavour, design notes and a reference image upload. State how much notice you need for custom designs.
Online ordering
- Order and pay online with WooCommerce, or order via WhatsApp for simpler setups
- Delivery date and time slot selection
- Delivery areas and charges; pickup option
- Message on cake field and add-ons (candles, cards)
See WooCommerce development and online payments on WordPress.
Selling regular meals instead? See websites for tiffin and meal subscriptions.
Show your work
A gallery of past custom cakes by occasion (birthday, wedding, anniversary, kids' themes) sells your skills better than anything else. Compress images so the gallery stays fast.
Trust and practical details
- FSSAI licence number where applicable
- Ingredients and allergen information
- Order cut-off times and cancellation policy
- Reviews and customer photos
Selling mithai too? See websites for sweet shops.
Local SEO
- Target "cake delivery in {area}", "custom cakes {city}" and "eggless bakery near me"
- A Google Business Profile with photos and hours
- Occasion pages (birthday cakes, wedding cakes) with real examples
