How do I order snacks when attendance is still uncertain?

Meetings, school events and family gatherings often change size near the date. You can still begin planning before the final RSVP count if you are transparent about the uncertainty and avoid treating the first estimate as fixed.

Short answer

Give Moh Bakes a realistic minimum and maximum attendance rather than inventing a precise number. Identify the event date, chosen snacks, current expected quantity and when you will know the final count. Because products have different preorder minimums and availability, the best order structure depends on the range and cannot be solved by one universal pieces-per-person rule.

Use a range and a decision date

Say that you currently expect, for example, between 25 and 35 people and state when registration or RSVPs close. That gives the baker useful context without pretending the number is final.

If the event is only a few days away, ask what quantity changes can still be confirmed rather than assuming adjustments will always be possible.

Choose products that fit the likely range

Current minimums differ between samosas, doughnuts, muffins, mahamri, chapati and cinnamon rolls. A very small uncertain group may need a simpler combination than a large event that can comfortably use several batch minimums.

Keep the first order discussion focused on the products you genuinely want.

Decide how much shortage or excess risk you accept

Some organizers prefer a small buffer, while others want a tighter order because a meal and cake are also being served. Tell Moh Bakes about the rest of the menu and your preference.
