While we can accommodate food preferences such as vegan, keto, and gluten-free diets and allergies, we cannot guarantee 100% allergen-free products. We do take all reasonable precautions to try to prevent cross-contamination. We quickly realized that our specialty is catering to food intolerances and allergies. We understand how hard it is to find delicious meals that fit your dietary requirements. Catering to those with celiac disease and specializing in dairy-free, keto, vegan, and more, you can trust us to put your health first! For allergy-friendly orders, we thoroughly sanitize equipment and surfaces, line all pans, and use only closed-packaged ingredients to minimize the risk of allergen contamination.

Yummy Mummy's Kitchen strives to replicate requested cake designs and colours, but due to the artistic nature of cake creation and the limitations of ingredients, equipment, and colours, some variations may occur. Colour matching is challenging, and while efforts are made to match provided swatches, exact matches cannot be guaranteed. Design changes may be made for stability and integrity, and reproductions of cakes from other sources will be interpreted uniquely by Yummy Mummy's Kitchen.
Cakes, fillings, and icings may contain allergens like soy, wheat, dairy, nuts, etc. Customers must notify Yummy Mummy's Kitchen of any allergies before confirming their booking. It's the Customer's responsibility to inform their guests about allergy information. Yummy Mummy's Kitchen is not liable for allergic reactions, and special dietary products are suitable for intolerances, not allergies.
We are chefs, not photographers. Therefore we do not send pictures of your cake at any time during our process. We take pride in our work and want you to be as pleased as possible with the result.
Yummy Mummy's Kitchen may use images of their cake creations for publication on various media platforms, but they will not post any photos before the event to preserve the surprise factor. Customers are encouraged to share images of their enjoyed products, and by sending these images, they grant Yummy Mummy's Kitchen permission to use them later while releasing the company from any indemnity.
Cakes & Confections
We offer delivery and setup for all catering and all food items. When picking up, we encourage timely pick-up of items. After the product is delivered or picked up in appropriate condition, the responsibility for storage and care shifts to the Customer according to Yummy Mummy's Kitchen's instructions. Once the item is obtained, the company is no longer accountable for it.
If you are ordering a tiered cake, we recommend getting delivery to ensure it is set up correctly and travels safely.
All pricing is subject to a 20% Gratuity based on the sub-total for an entire event.
Due to liability and health regulations, YMK does not leave any portion of the leftovers from the events. When appropriate, YMK has made arrangements with several shelters in the area willing to accept the leftovers should YMK deem them suitable for donation.
To protect our clients and guests, Yummy Mummy’s Kitchen will be the only food source on-site at the event. Allowances may be made for wedding cakes and ethnic requirements with prior notice.
All applicable Federal and Provincial taxes are in addition to the agreed-upon prices and will be charged accordingly. Our invoice will give you the appropriate breakdown.
A standard industry service charge is applied to all events. This fee encompasses all event & menu consultations, event preparation & orchestration, all liabilities and vehicle maintenance, and the backend costs that go into the event, such as set up, clean up and working the event aside from the food itself. A 10% service charge for all events is applied to the full invoice.
Any last-minute menu and logistic changes are required at least 21 days before the event date. Any changes or modifications that come in after this cutoff date may not be able to be accommodated. We understand that last-minute things come up and changes may happen. We try as much as possible to accommodate your request. However, keep in mind the nature of our business. Oftentimes, we pre-order our provisions in advance to ensure we have everything we need to make your event memorable. We may only sometimes be able to accommodate your request during our busy times. It is always best to communicate with us by telephone as soon as you know of any changes.
Yummy Mummy’s Kitchen may photograph events and guests attending your event. All pictures may be used on our website or in our printed material. Upon request, photos can be provided through email to our liaison for that event.
