Please read the following Terms of Use carefully before placing your order with Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies. By using the Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use.

Modifications to the Terms of Use will be effective immediately and any subsequent use by you of the website will constitute an acceptance of those modifications.

Membership
By purchasing an item advertised on this website and/or by completing the registration process to become a member of Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies (“a Member”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use.

Access
The products and services described in this website are only available for delivery within Australia.

This website has been prepared to provide you with general information only and as an introduction to cake decorations that we stock.
 We reserve the right not to provide goods or services, terminate membership accounts, remove or edit content or cancel orders at our sole discretion at any time.

Product Information
Prices of goods and delivery displayed on the Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies website are current at the time of display. These prices are subject to variation without notice.

While great care has been taken in the presentation of information on this site, including product descriptions and pricing, we are unable to warrant that product descriptions or other content of the website is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error free. No representation is made and no responsibility accepted for reliance upon the information as being complete, accurate or up to date.

We advise you to make your own enquiries and satisfy yourself in all respects to the products you are considering purchasing.

GST (Goods & Services Tax)
All prices advertised are inclusive of all taxes applicable to the product. These are calculated at checkout. This is a broad based tax on consumption, which applies to the supply of most goods and services.

When do you charge my credit card?
We take payment at the time of order, as opposed to the time of dispatch.

All online credit card orders are charged upfront, at the time the order is made via SecurePay Secure Payment Service. We do this to validate the order and to ensure that all stock is pre-purchased. No order is accepted by Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies until the order has been checked and approved. If there is a problem, we will telephone you or e-mail you within three (3) working days.

Paying upfront also substantially reduces order processing time, and ensures that as a customer, all you need to do is sit back and wait for your delivery to arrive.

Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies is not responsible for any loss or damage caused by late delivery or cancellation of an order or a product.

Our agreement with you only comes into existence once we have both confirmed your order and your payment has been processed.

Once we have accepted payment for an order, cancellation of the order is at our sole discretion after taking into account the circumstances and reasons for cancellation. 
If you need to cancel an order, please contact us immediately on 08 8258 1030 or email us at ginabasic@live.com.au.
 Orders that cannot be cancelled will be subject to our Terms of Use relating to Returns and Refunds.

Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies credit card purchases will be displayed as WHIP-IT-UP CAKE SUPPLIES on your credit card statement.

Online Credit Card Payments
Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies accepts online payments using the following credit cards: VISA, MASTERCARD, AMERICAN EXPRESS. We use an Australian payment system, which processes your credit card details offline via our secure payment provider, SecurePay. You can check out their details online via www.securepay.com.au. We do not store ANY credit card details in our database and we do not have forms that require your credit card at any stage through the checkout process.

Offline Payment
If you still feel uncomfortable purchasing online that’s fine! You can call us to make payment and arrange delivery on 08 8258 1030. All payments will still be processed at the time of the order. Please note there maybe an additional service free charged for this.

It is worth remembering, however, that paying online is very secure and will be the most convenient way for you to buy from www.whipitupcakesupplies.com

If you have any questions about the security at our website please send an email to ginabasic@live.com.au or telephone 08 8258 1030.

Delivery
We ship our products to Australia.

Anyone at the Delivery Address who receives the goods will be taken to have been authorised to receive the goods by you.

It is your obligation to enter the correct delivery address details at the time of ordering. If you enter the wrong address, we are not obliged to re-send the order to the correct address at our expense.

Online orders placed on Saturday and Sunday
ALL orders placed after 3pm on Friday and at any time of day on Saturday and Sunday will be processed on the following Monday.

We do not ship on Saturdays, Sundays or Australian Public holidays unless alternative arrangements have been made.

Can I add additional items to an existing unshipped order?
Unfortunately, additional items cannot be added to an existing unshipped order. Should you wish to purchase additional items, you will need to place a new order for those additional items.

What if my order does not arrive?
It is the responsibility of the customer to inform Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies if an order does not arrive. Once we learn an order has not arrived by the due date, we will lodge enquiries with the courier to ensure delivery occurs as soon as possible.

As a guide only, our couriers attempt to deliver to addresses between 9am and 5pm.
Unfortunately, we are unable to give a guaranteed time of delivery.

You agree that when our courier partner is satisfied that the order has been delivered, delivery of the order has taken place within the terms of the agreement between you and us.

Without limiting the operation of any other Terms of Use, we will not accept liability for any loss or damage arising from a late delivery or for loss or damage arising after delivery has taken place and you agree that late delivery does not constitute a failure of our agreement, and does not entitle you to cancellation of an order.

Currency
All prices on www.whipitupcakesupplies.com are listed in Australian dollars (AUD).

Quality and Maintenance of Goods
At Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies we pride ourselves on the quality of our products and services. It is important to remember, however, that most food items are perishable and may react to temperature conditions, particularly cake, chocolate and fresh items, which, as a result may affect life of the product.

We recommend, if you are not familiar with the correct temperatures for the food types or specific produce, that you contact us for further information. Once delivery has occurred, quality and maintenance of the produce is your responsibility.

Out of Stock & Substitution
In the unlikely event that we cannot satisfy your order due to stock unavailability, we will contact you (via e-mail or telephone) to offer you an alternative or to determine how you want to proceed with your order.

Refunds and Returns
Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies will replace the goods you purchase if the goods you purchase:
are not of merchantable quality (i.e. if your cake is damaged at time of delivery – but not if you simply do not like the taste of the cake)
don’t match any description given of the goods (this would include corresponding with a photograph of the goods)
are not free from defects
Please note, all food products are perishable, so Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies expects that you take due care to properly store the goods in accordance with the nature of the product. If you are not clear on this, please check with us first. This is your responsibility. We cannot accept responsibility if food is stored in conditions that are not appropriate.

If you do find you have a legitimate problem with products or goods you purchase from Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies, you should stop using the goods immediately and approach us as soon as possible to explain the fault or problem. Please make sure you keep the goods in the condition that you claim has the problem.

You need to approach us regarding any problems with your goods within ‘a reasonable period of time’. What is reasonable depends on the goods, their use and any other relevant information.

As a rule we will require that they be returned to us within 5 days of the date of purchase for examination of the problem and in order to assess whether to replace the goods or refund you, at our discretion.

Please note that we will not be in a position to address your problem where you have been careless or unreasonable in your demands.

Note that Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies is not required to provide you with a refund if you have simply changed your mind or you find a similar or the same item to be cheaper elsewhere.

Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies may also require a receipt of proof of purchase.

In the event at our discretion we do refund you (as opposed to replace goods) for orders placed online or over the telephone – we will credit back the original credit card on which the order was purchased. Alternatively, we will issue you with a credit voucher.

Security of information from your browser to our server
A critical concern for electronic commerce is the secure transmission of data. To protect consumer data during transmission, Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies uses the latest SSL encryption technology that securely passes transaction data to the Whip-It-Up Cake Supplies gateway.

We use SSL (Secured Socket Layer) which means that we encrypt information sent to the server with a key that makes it almost impossible to decrypt. To do this we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) 256 bit encryption technology. This is superior to the industry standard.
This is far more secure than giving you credit card over the phone where someone could be listening, or to a cashier where someone can either look over your shoulder or get hold of your credit card receipt. We do not store or credit card details via the Internet. All credit card details are processed by SecurePay.
