A few more questions.
A breakfast at work needs different details from a cake at home. This catering concept gives the conversation a useful starting point without pretending there is a live menu or delivery service.
Share the preferred date, approximate group size and the kind of gathering. The bakery can then discuss whether the request fits its actual capacity and arrangements.

Build the brief, then the proposal.
2. The food.
Ask what can be offered, in what quantities, and with what written ingredient and allergen information. Confirm all specific requirements directly.
3. The handover.
Agree whether collection or another arrangement is available. Confirm packaging, transport responsibilities, the total price and the applicable terms.
What a written agreement should cover.
Ask for an itemised description, quantities, the final total and any additional charges. The serving date and handover time should be explicit, along with payment and cancellation arrangements.
