The problems

1
Customisation details lost in long chats
A customer orders a 2kg chocolate cake with "Happy Birthday Priya" and specific delivery time. By the day before, you are searching through 200 WhatsApp messages. OrderMatrix stores every customisation note on the order.
2
Advance orders clash on delivery day
You have 3 birthday cakes and a wedding cake on the same Saturday. You discover this on Friday morning. OrderMatrix's advance booking calendar shows delivery dates across all orders so you can plan your baking schedule days ahead.
3
No record of who paid and who did not
Some customers pay 50% advance, others full payment, others on delivery. It's impossible to track in chat. OrderMatrix records partial payments, advance deposits, and COD balances per order.

Home bakers in India typically start with WhatsApp and a notebook. Orders come in as voice notes, screenshots of reference cakes, and long customisation chats. By the time a weekend with 6 deliveries arrives, the mental load is enormous.

OrderMatrix is the order management system home bakers in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi, and across India use to move from this chaos to a clean dashboard. Log every order with its delivery date, customisation notes, and payment status. The advance bookings view shows your upcoming schedule so you can plan production, not just react to it.

Common questions

Can I set a specific delivery date and time for each cake order?
Yes. Every order has a delivery date field. You can also use the advance bookings view to see all upcoming orders sorted by delivery date.
How do I track advance deposits vs balance payments?
Record the advance deposit when the order is placed, note the amount. When the customer pays the balance, record the second payment. The order shows total received vs total order value.
Can I add customisation notes like flavour, weight, and message?
Yes — there's a free-text notes field on every order. Add anything: "2kg, chocolate sponge, vanilla buttercream, 'Happy Birthday', nut-free, deliver by 6pm".
Does this work for pre-orders for festive seasons?
Yes. Advance bookings are perfect for Christmas, Eid, and Diwali rushes. Accept pre-orders with expected delivery dates weeks in advance and track them all in one view.
