The questions your team needs answered
Every dessert table intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What type of event is the dessert table for? | Event type determines whether the lead should be handled as a dessert table build or routed to a sibling workflow like Wedding Cake or Corporate Dessert Order. |
| About how many guests will the dessert table need to serve? | Guest count sets production quantity and staffing needs, and every tier from under 25 to over 150 contributes to the lead's score. |
| When is the event date? | A date within 2 weeks signals you need to confirm staffing and availability quickly before committing to the order. |
| Do you need any items free of specific allergens, such as nuts or gluten? | An allergen-free requirement affects ingredient sourcing and prep time, so it needs to surface before you quote a price. |
| Do you need delivery, setup, and styling at the event location? | Whether delivery, setup, and styling is needed determines if you must staff and quote for on-site work, directly tied to avoiding a quote you can't fulfill. |
| Which dessert categories would you like included? | Knowing the dessert category mix lets your kitchen plan production ahead of the tasting instead of guessing at the spread. |
| Do you have a theme, color scheme, or design inspiration to share? | Captures the detail in the client’s own words so you’re briefed before the first call. |

Built for dessert table workflows
| Cliont capability | Dessert Table application |
|---|---|
| Conditional follow-up questions | When delivery, setup, and styling is answered yes, the intake can be configured to collect venue access details before you scope on-site logistics. |
| Weighted lead scoring | Guest count and event date combine into one score, so a 150-guest wedding two weeks out ranks above a no-date, guest-count-unknown inquiry. |
| Multi-select field capture | Dessert category selections sync to your CRM record so your kitchen can see the production mix — cakes, cookies, macarons, or candy — ahead of the tasting. |
| Free-text detail capture | Theme and design inspiration notes are preserved verbatim in the CRM so a decorator can review intent before the client call. |
| Special-requirement flagging | A yes answer on allergen needs tags the lead for dietary review, keeping unstaffed allergen-heavy requests from reaching a quote unflagged. |
Common dessert table lead scenarios
Wedding on a tight timeline
Event type is wedding, guest count is 76 to 150, and the date is within 2 weeks — this combination scores as high priority so you can confirm availability before quoting staffing.
Corporate order, no styling needed
The lead selects corporate event and answers no to delivery, setup, and styling, so the intake routes it as a simpler pickup-style order rather than an on-site build.
Shower inquiry with theme details
A baby or bridal shower host has no date set yet but fills in the free-text field with color and theme direction, giving your team design context even before a firm booking.
Large birthday with allergen needs
Guest count is over 150 and the allergen question is answered yes, flagging the order for special ingredient sourcing before you commit to a price or a tasting slot.

Dessert Table lead-intake FAQs
How is this different from the Wedding Cake intake if my lead is getting married?
The dessert table intake asks for event type, dessert categories (cakes and cupcakes, cookies, macarons, candy), and overall guest count for a full spread, rather than specs for a single cake. If a wedding lead only wants a cake, route them to the Wedding Cake intake instead.
Does the intake catch allergen-sensitive requests before I quote?
Yes — the allergen question captures a simple yes/no on nut, gluten, or other restrictions so you can flag ingredient sourcing needs before confirming pricing or a tasting.
Will a small guest count get filtered out as low priority?
No. Every guest count tier, from under 25 to over 150, carries meaningful weight in scoring, so smaller dessert tables still surface as viable leads rather than getting deprioritized.
What happens with leads that haven't picked an event date yet?
The date question still captures 'no date set yet' as a valid answer, and that lead is still sent to your CRM — it simply scores lower on urgency than one with a firm date within the next two weeks.
How do I get design direction before the tasting call?
The free-text theme and inspiration field is passed through to your CRM record as-is, so your decorator has color, style, or Pinterest-style direction before the first conversation.
What's the difference between this and Corporate Dessert Order?
Corporate Dessert Order is built for standing or bulk office orders, while Dessert Table qualifies one-off event spreads with delivery, setup, and styling questions — pick whichever matches the inquiry.
