Cottage CMS alternative
A Cottage CMS alternative for pre-orders, not another website builder.
Cottage CMS is a strong cottage-food website builder with Square checkout. BakeryFlow is built for the selling week itself: a baker app and a storefront link with capped menus, pickup windows, bake lists, coupons, and reviews.
Website builder vs pre-order app
Cottage CMS fits when you want pages, stories, and a standing shop website. BakeryFlow fits when you open pre-order windows a few times a week and need caps, pickup slots, and a bake list more than a theme.
What BakeryFlow adds for cottage bakers
- Mobile-first for the baker; customers never install anything.
- Pre-order windows and bake lists, not a CMS theme.
- Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, cash, or optional Stripe cards.
