The Paperwork Side of My Cake Business - Order Forms & Tax Records

Paperwork can be daunting and boring, but I came up with a system that works for me. It's important to keep your orders organized. In this video, I show you how I fill out my order forms and how I log my sales and deductions to keep meticulous tax records.
BLANK ORDER FORM:
drive.google.c...
BLANK SALES TEMPLATE:
(You must click FILE, MAKE A COPY to save it to your drive. If you edit the template in this link, it is public view and everyone will be able to see it!)
docs.google.co...
BLANK DEDUCTIONS TEMPLATE:
(This is made for me, so you will have to change or remove things to modify to your liking.)
docs.google.co...
TOOLS I USED:
3 RING BINDERS - amzn.to/38TjRMh (I like using different colored ones so I can easily tell what year they are for.)
3 HOLE PUNCH - amzn.to/2Kl0YYA
MONTH DIVIDERS - amzn.to/38TLdCf
HIGHLIGHTERS - amzn.to/3pF2O6N
PLASTIC FILE BOX - amzn.to/2Kgwnv7
LEGAL FOLDERS - amzn.to/3f9nO0u
HANGING FOLDERS - amzn.to/3pIa69E
For the weekly overview sheets, I just got stationery paper (because I wanted it to look pretty) and used that. You can just use plain paper if you want!

Hi where’s the order form?

[@KarolynsKakes]

@@MLKLegacy2 email me at [e-mail] and I'll send the order form!

[@traceymullin7937]

Another great video! Sounds like you have your excel spreadsheet all organized, but incase you’ve ever wanted to check out CakeBoss software, it’s a game changer. I still hand write my orders, but also enter the order to send invoices. It keeps track of all your repeat customers, you can attach pictures to your customer orders, either their inspiration photos and also a picture of their final cake. You can keep your recipes, track your expenses, mileage, etc, and at tax season, it’s easy to just print a report. I just like that it’s all in one place. Anyway, thanks for all your knowledge, look forward to your videos!

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you for the tip! I briefly looked into it years ago but I'm sure it's much different now. I appreciate it!

This is excellent! Thank you! I commend you. I use to accept orders from all avenues as well but it became too overwhelming. Now, I only handle orders via email and I only accept Zelle as a form of payment, unless it’s family and close friends. I couldn’t keep up and it was driving me mad. 😩

Got it thanks. ??? Do you have any info to share about cottage law? Just thought I would ask since your in PA & I’ve been trying to understand all this info & if you have anything you would like to share, all 👂. 😊

[@KarolynsKakes]

PA is pretty good with their cottage food laws. There are some restrictions, like you must keep your food to sell separate from the food you eat (I have 2 cake fridges). You can google it to see the most recent updates for the law!

[@melaninqueen787]

Do home bakery businesses have to charge sales tax? I was reading somewhere that baked goods were exempt but not sure if that’s true!

[@KarolynsKakes]

No, I don't have to charge sales tax.

[@MelaninQueen93]

As a home baker we don’t need to pay taxes quarterly right ?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I always do because I don't want to end up with a tax bill in April that is thousands of dollars! I have a savings account that I just opened for my taxes and I periodically transfer funds there. And when the quarterly taxes are due, I pay them with the funds in that savings account.

[@edithramirez8457]

Thanks for sharing this video, this just make me admire you even more, no many bakers show and share this side of the work! 👍🏻💕

[@katsuleiman]

Hi Karolyn!!! First off, thank you! Thank you for your time, effort, knowledge, engagement, and selflessness in everything you do! Quick question - it looks like you don’t do any signed cake contracts. Is that accurate? Is your deposit basically the contract? And I guess the communications from your clients? I guess I am wondering about how you deal when a customer switches up on you, like I said this flavor not the one you made. And also how you let customers know about your policies like any refund scenarios? Just play it by situation?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I have all the info in my email that I send to everyone, I talk about it in this video, where there's a link in the description to the emails I send out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKWUoYF4mtChrdE The email covers everything that would be in a contract. I do use contracts if people ask or for really big orders. But I find in unnecessary to do them all the time as it's too much paperwork to keep track of. In the email, it states that no changes can be made within 10 days of pickup. All correspondence is through email so there is a conversation trail. It also says in my email that cancellations within 10 days may forfeit the deposit. Each refund scenario is unique, so it depends on the situation!

[@MzNesi50]

Thank you!!! I would like more videos on this topic pls.

[@dalea.peterson7478]

Very good!! *I'm a tax preparer and I wish all my clients do it like you. I'm going to refer this video for them to watch!!! Suggestion: Scan receipts. They fade.

[@KarolynsKakes]

Thank you!! My accountant loves me 😂 Is there an app to use to scan the receipts?

[@CPfaith]

What about receipts to your customers when you re receive payments from them? How is that taken care of?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I always keep payment records in our email thread. So, for example, if someone orders a cake for $300 and sends in a $100 deposit, I will email them, "I got the $100 in Venmo, thank you! The $200 balance is due by Sept 18th." Then when they send the balance, I will email, "I got the $200 balance in CashApp, you are paid in full, thank you!" This way, there is proof of payment in the email and through whatever method they paid (venmo, cash app, paypal, square, etc.). If they drop off cash, which rarely happens anymore, I will print out a receipt for them.

[@BeeRavie]

so question.... i opened my business July 2021 as a sole proprietorship, not an LLC (because i wasnt sure i was going to stick with it). I didnt make many sales for the year. Definitely invested ALOT of money in supplies, marketing, decorations, etc. im not sure how to file.... ive heard things about claiming a loss for your business but idk if that even counts for me. Im literally dumbfounded lol i always file my own taxes but dont know where to begin with this. any advice (i know youre not a tax professional or anything)

[@KarolynsKakes]

I use an accountant who is very experienced and he guides me in the right direction. I keep very good records of everything (which makes things easier for him LOL) so I would recommend finding someone in your area who can help you with that. I always pay quarterly taxes so I don't get behind! (I opened a separate tax savings account and just transfer 30% of everything I make into there, which helps keep that money separate from everything else.)

[@MsTwilightgirl94]

Barely watching 9 minutes gave me a headache trying to keep up, I'm sure there's a better way to do that on a computer instead of having all that paperwork!! 🙃🙃 Thanks though for the info.

[@KarolynsKakes]

Ahhhh sorry it confused you! We find what works for us. I have to have paper order forms so I can sketch and keep notes on them! But I totally understand it's not for everyone. Hope it helped a little!

[@Topia416]

On delivery, is it ok to charge if is like crazy far? I feel bad to charge sometimes, there been time where is and hour away 😳 I love it but transporting the cake it can get challenging scary and I honestly I panic I hated 😅😞

[@KarolynsKakes]

Charge for your time!!! I now charge a flat rate of $25, PLUS $2.25 per mile one way, PLUS tolls. So if it's 30 miles away, it's $25 + $67.50 (30 x 2.25) + $5 bridge toll (if I cross the bridge) = $97.50! If it takes an hour to get there, it will take an hour to get back. So that's 2 hours just driving. Plus you take on the stress of transporting it and setting it up. Plus you have to pay for gas and tolls. And there may be traffic too so at the least a delivery an hour away could be 2.5 - 3 hours of your time. Make it worth it! I find that my rate is pricey, but it's not too much that people would rather pay than have to pick it up. Let them know from jump so they know what to expect.

[@KC-rr8ff]

Do you pay for having a home business and working out of your home? Is that the LLC part? I am in Georgia and I know it can be different per state.

[@KarolynsKakes]

The LLC is set up for taxes and insurance purposes. And in PA, we have to get licensed and inspected and zoned for residential bakery. It does cost a little bit, but not too much to set it all up!

[@nitaspastries]

Hi Karolyn. Thank you for this video. But I have questions. 1. How do you estimate the tax to pay. When inside the cake sales is your labour, ingredients, profit and all.

[@KarolynsKakes]

I have a separate tax savings account and I put around 25% of all of my sales into that savings. I tend to overestimate the taxes I'll owe. But it's better to have extra money saved than not to have enough!

[@nitaspastries]

@@KarolynsKakes so true. I just opened a separate savings account. I normally add tax to my cakes. So I would remove that tax and add another 15-20% of my sales for tax. Thank you so much. I have learnt a lot from you.

[@bobbie8368]

Like so many others I'm loving and appreciating all of your explanations and so appreciate you making the videos that you do; I'm learning so much! I have a question and I see a partial answer already. You don't charge tax but at the end of the year you're taxed on that income. And I'm not sure how to word this... but, those taxes you pay add up. How do you compensate for that out going money? I mean, do you take it off your profit?

[@KarolynsKakes]

I have a savings account that I call "Tax Savings". When I get paid, I transfer 20% right into that account so I don't touch that money. And I use that account to make my quarterly tax payments. I hope that helps!

Love your videos What do you do if a customer cancels a cake order? Do you give back the deposit?

[@KarolynsKakes]

It depends on when they cancel. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. If they cancel with more than 3 week's notice, I will refund it. If there is enough time for me to get another order, then I will refund it. If I have turned down many other orders and they cancel the last minute, I won't refund it.

[@yursweets8742]

Amazing work!! Thank you for being so organized!! My question is if you have a rate of much do you charge for delivery?

[@KarolynsKakes]

Yes! I just talked about that in my latest video. Right now I do a base of $25, plus $2.25 (one way) from my location, plus tolls. So if I have to drive 10 miles and pay $5 in tolls, it will be $25 plus 10 x $2.25 ($22.50), plus $5 = $52.50 I hope that makes sense! You can mess around with the per mileage charge and increase / decrease depending on your preference.

[@moonowl4912]

Perfect sense. I have two separate order forms. One for every day cakes and one for wedding cakes. I like to itemize the wedding info. Topper, fresh flowers, cake stand deposit, etc. that form is signed because I require a non refundable deposit of 100.00. Typically the wedding forms are filled out with the Bride present. I do cake tastings in my home. I attach ribbon colors of the bouquets, pictures they might bring because they like the trim or something. Anyway just rambling.

[@KarolynsKakes]

I do something similar with wedding order forms! But I don’t have people in my house for tastings. I give them cupcake samples to take home with them! (I have a video on that somewhere)
