A family came in recently - daughter in her 20s/30s and her parents.
Dad asked if the fruit cake is moist (tick) then if the apple cake is moist (tick,tick). Then while he was making up his mind his daughter asked about gluten free cake.
We ran through our three options but unfortunately she doesn't like banana, lemon and courgette nor orange, carrot and sultana. She had an ice cream.
Dad then asked if he could SEE the apple cake up close. When we put it on the counter he stuck out his hand to give it a squeeze....
We suggested he shouldn't actually touch it.
"But I might buy it" he said. We repeated that we didn't think he should feel the cake in case he didn't buy it.
His wife was evidently a little put out: "No-one's ever said no to us before." she said.
They did eventually choose (carrot please, but not an end piece).
And as they left they called out: "lovely cake, thank you".
