Email Templates for Bakeries

Professional emails that confirm orders, launch seasonal specials, drive pre-orders, and build a loyal customer base for your bakery.

Bakeries thrive on repeat customers who come back for their favorite loaf, cake, or pastry every week. These templates help you build that loyalty through professional communication — from confirming custom orders to launching seasonal specials that drive foot traffic. Set them up once and let automation handle the rest.

Best Practices

Include item details and special instructions in order confirmations to avoid miscommunication

Launch seasonal menus with a sense of urgency — limited availability drives action

Start holiday pre-order campaigns at least 4-6 weeks before the holiday

Show subscription box contents in advance so subscribers feel excited about their delivery

Give subscription customers a customization window to reduce cancellations

Include pickup time, location, and parking details in every order confirmation

Common Mistakes

Not including a pre-order deadline, which removes urgency

Sending seasonal announcements after the items are already available for weeks

Making subscription boxes feel transactional instead of exciting

Forgetting to include allergen or ingredient information in promotional emails

Using low-quality product photos that don't showcase your baked goods

Not offering a deposit option for expensive custom orders

Personalization Tips

Bakery email marketing turns one-time buyers into weekly regulars. Most customers who love your bread, cakes, or pastries simply forget to come back or don't know about your latest creations. Email keeps your bakery in their inbox and top of mind.

These four templates cover the essential bakery communications: confirming orders with every detail to prevent mistakes, launching seasonal menus that drive foot traffic, opening holiday pre-orders that fill your production schedule, and reminding subscription customers about their upcoming box.

Sequenzy automates the entire process. Set up these templates once, connect them to your ordering system, and let automation handle confirmations, seasonal announcements, and subscription management. Start with 1,000 free emails per month and scale as your customer list grows.
