[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I think I should be ok.  I messaged her that I pay paled her the payment and I really appreciated her hard work and she said... "thank you so much, look forward to future parties. :)"  So i don't think she will be insulted I paid her.  Looking back it was silly for me to think otherwise.  [/quote]

OP I think you did the right thing, but it should be a lesson learned. She did not act in the least bit professional. It is like one of those creepy sales parties and the person says "why don't you take it home?" It is a slick (and underhanded) way of making you use her business and pay for it. She should not have assumed that you knew it was a business -- because people bring food gifts over all the time for parties. Yes, she is starting a "business" but she is going about it the wrong way. "I'll bring the birthday cake! I can make that for you!" is just bizarre. Also, she opened the door to lots of talk behind your back if you didn't pay her, because others would naturally assume that she told you it was a catering job. manipulative. Those would be the last cake pops I would ever buy from her. Or anything else.[/quote]
