System Requirements


  • Microsoft Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows 7
  • Your computer must be up to date on all Microsoft updates and patches, including Service Pack 2, and the optional update for .NET Framework 3.5.
  • Internet Explorer required to run installation
  • An internet connection is not required to run CakeBoss after initial installation, in the event you have a laptop that you take to bridal consultations or other business meetings.  Just be sure to connect to the internet every few weeks to check for updates!
  • 80 MB free hard drive space

Attention Mac users:

Although CakeBoss is not technically Mac compatible, we have had limited success* with Mac users installing CakeBoss on a Mac running Windows inside a Windows emulator such as Parallels or VM Fusion.

*So what does "limited success" mean?  It means that the users who have tried it report back to us that it works -- in fact, nobody's ever told us that it didn't work.  But since we are not a Mac shop, we cannot test it ourselves or guarantee a successful installation.
