A Few Sweet & Simple RulesWelcome to Whispering Vegan! We're so excited for you to enjoy our ethical, plant-based bakes and mindful digital products. To ensure everyone has a smooth and joyful experience, here are a few sweet and simple terms and conditions. By placing an order or using our services, you agree to these guidelines:
1. Scope of Agreement These terms apply to all transactions and interactions with Whispering Vegan, including physical bakes and goods, digital products from the Whispering Pixels brand, use of our website (
https://whisperingvegan.co.za), and participation in our programs.
2. Allergens & Dietary NeedsWhile all our products are proudly 100% vegan (free from animal products like dairy, eggs, and honey), we handle common allergens like nuts, soy, gluten, and other ingredients in our kitchen in Montana, Pretoria.
Your Responsibility: It is your responsibility to inform us of any allergies or specific dietary requirements at the time of placing your order.
Cross-Contamination: While we take immense care to prevent cross-contamination, we cannot guarantee a complete absence of trace allergens. We encourage customers with severe allergies to exercise caution.
3. Order Confirmation & Changes (Physical Products) All orders are subject to availability and confirmation. Once confirmed, changes or cancellations may not always be possible, especially for custom or large orders, as we start preparing ingredients fresh for you. Please confirm all details carefully when ordering.
4. Pricing & Payment Currency: All prices are listed in South African Rands (ZAR).
Payment: Full payment is required at the time of order confirmation unless otherwise agreed upon for larger corporate or event orders.
5. Price Changes Please note that our products are freshly made with high-quality ingredients. Due to potential fluctuations in ingredient prices, our product prices may change from time to time without prior notice. We strive to keep our prices fair and competitive while reflecting the true cost of our artisanal vegan bakes.
6. Quality, Freshness, & Storage We bake everything with love and the freshest ingredients! Our products are best enjoyed within a recommended timeframe, which will be advised upon delivery or collection. We cannot be held responsible for the quality of products if they are not consumed or stored according to our recommendations.
7. Delivery, Collection, & Risk We offer three ways to get your treats:Collection (Montana, Pretoria): Products are available for collection during our operating hours (Monday–Friday 09H00-17H00, Saturday 09H00-13H00). Risk of loss or damage passes to you upon collection.
Local Delivery (Scheduled Areas in Pretoria): Risk of loss or damage passes to you upon successful hand-off at your specified delivery address.
Courier (Non-Perishables Only): We use third-party couriers for non-perishable products. This option excludes items like cakes, cupcakes, breads, and tarts. Risk of loss or damage passes to you the moment the courier collects the package from us. We are not liable for delays, damage, or loss caused by the courier service.
8. Cancellations & Refunds Physical Products: In the unlikely event that you need to cancel an order, please contact us as soon as possible. Refunds will be handled on a case-by-case basis, considering the amount of preparation already undertaken. Custom orders are generally non-refundable once preparation has begun.
Digital Products (Whispering Pixels): Given the nature of digital goods, all sales are considered final once the product has been downloaded or access has been granted. We do not offer refunds on digital products unless required by applicable law.
9. Product AppearanceOur handcrafted treats may vary slightly in appearance from images shown on our website or social media – that's the beauty of artisanal baking! While we strive for accuracy, the colors and decoration may have minor variations.
