FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is extremely reasonable for the food and service Fruitcakes provides. Consider what some menu items are priced at restaurants, and meals are served in your own home or vacation rental.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When I am contacted by a prospective client, I want to know what their perfect idea of a meal or celebration is. The goal is to create a memorable fabulous experience. Dietary needs and favorite dishes are always a number one priority! We design a menu together, discuss budget and move forward.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
A lifetime of cooking for friends and family. My parents were gourmet cooks so I have been learning through osmosis since the 60's. Honestly and most Humbly, I have been blessed with a God Given talent and want to share this with you.
