Digital menu for bakeries

A bakery menu is two things at once: a window display for impulse buyers and an allergen reference for the regulars who can't eat half of what you sell. Hayde's digital menu for bakeries handles both — beautiful photos for the croissant browsers, rigorous allergen tags for the gluten-free crowd.

What a bakery actually needs

🥐

Photo-first menu

Bakery sales are 80% visual. Show every croissant, sourdough loaf, and seasonal pastry as it actually looks.

🥗

Allergen filters that work

Tag gluten, nuts, dairy, eggs, sesame. Customers filter the menu in one tap to dishes they can eat — the highest-intent feature in a bakery context.

🌅

Rotating fresh-today section

Mark today's fresh-baked items. The section shows up at the top of the menu and hides automatically tomorrow.

🚫

Sold-out tracking

When the last pain au chocolat is gone, hide it from the menu in seconds. No more customers ordering ghost items.

🛍️

Pre-order for pickup

Optional scan-to-order with a pickup time. Saturday-morning queue ordered ahead on Friday night.

🎂

Whole-cake order form

Custom-cake requests come in via a structured form — flavor, size, date, message — not via DM screenshots.

FAQ

Can the menu show "fresh today" items at the top?

Yes. Mark items as fresh-today and they sort to the top of the menu automatically. The tag clears overnight so tomorrow's menu starts clean.

How do customers filter for gluten-free or vegan?

Tag the menu items with allergens and dietary categories — gluten, nuts, dairy, eggs, sesame, vegan, vegetarian. Customers tap a filter and the menu narrows to only dishes that pass. Critical in a bakery context where regulars often have specific restrictions.

Can customers pre-order a cake?

Yes. Add a custom-order form — fields for flavor, size, pickup date, message, allergens. Submissions land in your admin so you can confirm or quote.

Can the menu hide items that sold out?

Yes. Toggle "sold out" from your phone. Items disappear from the customer menu in seconds — no more disappointing the customer at the counter.

Does Hayde work for a bakery with no staff app experience?

Yes. The admin is designed for someone holding a phone in a flour-dusted hand. Sold-out toggles, fresh-today tags, and price edits each take one tap. No training session required.
