Mikaela makes a sign to put up in her cake shop. She positions the sign on the wall next to the counter where customers are served.
Kimiko comes to Mikaela's shop to place an order for a cake. They discuss all of the details: Kimiko orders a round, chocolate cake covered with blue and purple coloured icing. While finalising the order Kimiko sees the sign, which says: We accept no responsibility for breach of any warranty.
Kimiko comes back a week later to collect and pay for the cake. After leaving with the cake Kimiko discovers that it has blue and green icing. This makes it inappropriate for the function she was planning to use it for - a sports team celebration. Kimiko wants to complain to Mikaela but isn't sure whether or not the sign prevents her from doing so.
1. Was the icing colour a condition or a warranty of the contract?
2. Is Mikaela still responsible for the icing being the wrong colour on Kimiko's cake?
