St Albans is a working market for cakes & desserts — Home-Counties country estates within commuting distance of London. Briefs come in for Sopwell House, Down Hall and Hatfield House and plenty of private and corporate spaces around Hertfordshire.
Local jobs generally pay £543–£900 for a wedding cake. Bookt takes 7.5% only when a booking confirms — months without work cost you nothing.
When a customer in St Albans requests quotes, Bookt sends you the brief — date, venue, guest count, budget — and you decide whether to reply. Peak season fills first, so a complete profile matters most going into summer.

Every cake maker sets their own rates — Bookt doesn't cap or cut your price. We take 7.5% only when a booking completes. So if you quote £1,500 and the customer books, Bookt's fee is £112.50 and you keep £1,387.50. No subscription means it costs you nothing in months where you don't book.
No — Bookt matches by your travel radius, not your postcode. Any cake maker who covers St Albans as part of their service area can apply for jobs here, whether you're based in the city itself or commuting in for events.
The customer pays a 25% deposit when they book, held in Stripe. If the event is more than 30 days away, the deposit transfers to your payout account 30 days after booking (less our 7.5%). If the event is sooner, the deposit transfers after you mark the job done and the customer confirms — usually next day. The remaining 75% is paid directly between you and the customer on whatever terms you agree.
Yes, any time. There's no lock-in, no notice period, no exit fee. Archive your profile from the dashboard and you stop receiving leads that day.
