Start selling in four steps

How to set up your birthday cake business on Zepio.

  1. Step 1

    Photograph your best bakes

    Shoot in daylight on a plain surface. One clear photo of the real product sells better than a styled stock image.

  2. Step 2

    Add sizes and flavours

    Set weights, flavours and eggless versions as options, each with its own price.

  3. Step 3

    Take messages and dates

    Let customers type the message for the cake and pick the delivery date and time at checkout.

  4. Step 4

    Deliver or let them collect

    Deliver with your own team, or let customers pick up from your counter.
