You post when you remember, usually a dim phone photo of the display case at 6 a.m. How bakeries and cafes batch a month of social visuals in one afternoon with AI, enhance the real food, and never fake the actual dish.

You run a bakery or a cafe. Your social feed is three posts a month, each a dim phone photo of the case before opening, because by the time the light is good you are serving. A photographer is a line item you cut in the first year. Meanwhile the chain down the road posts every day.
This page is the Sunday-afternoon routine for an owner with a phone, a tray of today's bake and no time.
What to post, every week
An enhanced photo of today's bake (real product, better light)
A seasonal mood visual (the autumn window, the holiday table)
A behind-the-counter moment
The weekend special, teased
A customer review, shown as a post
Only the first needs a real photo every week. The rest can be built in a batch.
The Sunday routine
Shoot four real product photos on Saturday morning with the case full and the lights on. Croissants, the cake, the coffee, the bread. These are your truth.
Enhance, do not replace. Use AI to fix the light, clean the counter and sharpen the glaze on the real photo. The croissant in the post must be the croissant in the case.
Generate the mood set. Prompt the atmosphere, not the food: "warm cafe window at golden hour, autumn leaves outside, empty wooden table, no food." Ten of these cover a month of story backgrounds and seasonal posts.
Write the month in one sitting and schedule it. Four real photos, ten mood visuals, five captions each.
The one line never to cross
