M&A PASTRIES – Shipping & Delivery Policy
Last Updated: November 27, 2025
At M&A Pastries (“we,” “us,” or “our”), all cakes and pastries are made fresh to order. This Shipping & Delivery Policy explains how delivery, pickup, and handling works when you purchase from our website.
1. Order Processing Time
All orders are handmade and prepared on a scheduled basis.
Processing time may vary depending on the product and order volume.
We will notify you if there are any unexpected delays.
2. Delivery Availability
We currently offer:
-
Local delivery within our service area
-
Pickup at our designated location in Los Angeles, CA
We do not ship cakes or pastries through postal carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc.) due to the perishable and fragile nature of our products.
3. Delivery Process & Requirements
For successful delivery, customers must:
-
Provide a complete and accurate address
-
Ensure someone is available to receive the order during the selected delivery window
-
Provide correct contact information for coordination if needed
If no one is available at the time of delivery, we may leave the order at the doorstep if safe, and the customer assumes full responsibility.
4. Delivery Delays
We are not responsible for delays caused by:
-
Incorrect or incomplete addresses
-
Traffic, weather, or road closures
-
Customers not being available to receive the order
-
Other factors outside our control
Once the order is delivered or picked up, responsibility transfers to the customer.
5. Pickup Orders
If you choose pickup:
-
You must arrive at the scheduled pickup time
-
Orders not picked up within the agreed timeframe may lose freshness or become damaged
-
We are not responsible for orders that spoil or melt due to late pickup
6. Handling & Transportation
Cakes and pastries are delicate. Once the order is handed off to the customer:
-
We are not responsible for damage caused during transportation
-
Customers should drive carefully and keep the product level at all times
-
Refrigerated items must be stored promptly to maintain freshness
7. Failed Delivery Attempts
If delivery cannot be completed due to:
-
Wrong address
-
No access to the property
-
No one available
-
Unsafe delivery conditions
The customer may need to arrange a pickup.
Additional delivery fees may apply for re-delivery attempts.
8. No Refunds for Delivery Issues Caused by Customer Error
We do not offer refunds or replacements if:
-
The customer provided the wrong address
-
No one was available at delivery
-
Items were left outside and became damaged
