At the pastry case
Keep collectors out of the browsing line
Preorder guests wait near pickup instead of rejoining a line of people still choosing croissants.
Pickup display for bakeries
Give preorder pickup its own lane.
Cake pickups, warmed sandwiches, coffee and people still choosing pastries shouldn't all end up at the same counter. Show preorder customers exactly when their order is ready, on a board that suits the room.

The Saturday bakery
Browsing, ordering and collecting are three different jobs.
Behind the counter
Protect careful handoffs
A cake box, a warmed sandwich and a drink move at different speeds while the customer sees one clear Ready state.
Holiday volume
Keep names and numbers legible
Use whatever identifier is already printed on the box or the ticket. Large type, readable across a packed collection window.
Readable across a holiday rush.
The Warm Counter board lists each order with its wait time, menu-style. Two common bakery setups:
Best bakery placements
- Ready-only tablet at the preorder shelf
- Full board visible from the collection area
- A screen away from the ordering queue
- Large type for weekend pickup windows
Use the labels guests know
- Customer name for cakes and preorders
- Ticket number for counter food and drinks
- Square orders arrive automatically when eligible
- Staff entry for phone orders and exceptions
Works with the register you already run.

What bakery owners ask first.
Can it show preorders placed days ago?
Yes. Staff add the order when they start packing it, or it arrives from Square when rung up. It sits in Making until you tap Ready on collection day.
What if a cake sits in Ready for an hour?
Nothing disappears. After a timer you choose, it moves to "please see staff" instead of vanishing, so the collector still knows where to go.
We call numbers, not names. Does that work?
Yes. Pick a numbers-only board like Ticket Numbers, or show both. What customers see is your choice.
Do we need to buy a TV?
Usually not. Any TV with a browser, or a spare iPad set to Ready only by the preorder shelf.
