How to make a website for a cake shop
Most cake orders start with a birthday a few days away and a search on the phone: what flavours you make, the price for one kilo, whether it can be eggless, and if you can make a cartoon or photo cake by Saturday. A small website shows all this and sends the order to your WhatsApp.

What people look for on a cake shop website
- Flavours with prices for half kg, one kg and two kg
- Eggless options, and whether every flavour can be made eggless
- Photos of theme cakes you have made: cartoon, photo print, tier and fondant cakes
- How many days ahead to order a theme or tier cake, and same-day options
- What to send on WhatsApp: flavour, weight, date, message on the cake, and a reference picture
- Home delivery areas and charges, and whether you deliver at midnight
- Shop timings, pickup details and a Google Maps button
The pages your website needs
- Home: The kinds of cakes you make, starting price per kg, eggless note, a few cake photos and a WhatsApp button to order
- Flavours and prices: Every flavour with half kg, one kg and two kg prices, eggless marked, and add-on prices for photo print or extra cream design
- Theme cakes: A gallery of your own cakes by type, such as kids' cartoon, photo cake, anniversary, two-tier, with starting prices
- How to order: What to send on WhatsApp, how many days ahead, advance amount, pickup and delivery areas, and midnight delivery charge
- Contact: Address, landmark, timings, phone, WhatsApp and Google Maps
Sample words for your home page

Sweet Layer Cakes is a 100% eggless cake shop in Vijay Nagar, run by Pooja Jain since 2017. We bake every cake after the order comes in and write the message by hand. Send us the flavour, weight, date and a picture you like on WhatsApp, and we confirm the price.
Use these as a starting point and write them in your own words: AppCub can rewrite them for you in the chat.
How to make it with AppCub, step by step
- Decide the pages. Most cake shop websites need these pages: Home, Flavours and prices, Theme cakes, How to order, Contact.
- Describe it to AppCub. Paste the request below, with your own name, address, prices and timings.
- Check the plan. AppCub lists the pages and what goes on each. Ask for changes until it is right; seeing the plan is free.
- Add your details and photos. Replace every sample with your real details, attach your own photos, and check each page on the phone and computer preview.
- Publish and share. Choose your address (your-name.sites.appcub.ai), put the website live and share the link on WhatsApp.
Copy this request, change the details to match your cake shop, and paste it into AppCub:

Tips for a cake shop website
- Use only photos of cakes you made, and keep the gallery to the clearest 12 to 20.
- Write the price per kg and the add-ons separately, so people can work out a photo cake's price without asking.
- Say plainly how many days ahead a theme or tier cake needs, and the advance you take.
- On the how-to-order page, give a sample WhatsApp message with flavour, weight, date, time and the words for the cake.
- If you make eggless cakes only, say it in the headline; it is often the first thing families check.
- Ask customers to leave a photo review on your free Google Business Profile and link the website from there.
What it costs
- Describing your website and seeing AppCub’s plan for it is free.
- Making it and changing it in chat uses credits for the work done: start with the 2-day trial for ₹99 (150 credits) or the one-time App Pack for ₹499 (200 credits, no autopay). Starter is ₹1,599 a month for 700 credits.

- A website has no forms, bookings, payments or logins: visitors reach you on WhatsApp, by phone or on Google Maps.
- Every page carries a small “Made with AppCub” badge and a “Report this site” link.
Questions
What should a cake shop website show?
Flavours with prices per weight, eggless options, photos of your own theme cakes, how many days ahead to order, and a WhatsApp button.
Can customers send me a photo for a photo cake through the website?
They tap WhatsApp on any page and send the photo there. The website has no upload form.
Should I put theme cake prices on the website?
Give a starting price for each type, like cartoon cakes from ₹1,200 for 1 kg, and say the final price depends on the design.
Can I add a new cake to the gallery after every big order?
Yes. Send the photo in the AppCub chat, ask it to add the cake to the theme cakes page, and publish again.
Can I show midnight delivery charges?
Yes. Put them on the how-to-order page with the areas you cover, so customers see the full price before they message.
Can I make the website in pink and gold to match my shop?
Yes. Tell AppCub your colours, or attach a photo of your logo or shop board for it to follow.
