Richmond, Virginia, bakery Shyndigz has opened 18 refrigerated self-service lockers that allow customers to pick up desserts around the clock, according to an Axios Richmond report. The lockers are housed in a structure in the bakery's parking lot at 1912 W. Cary St. in the Fan District.

Customers receive a code that opens the locker containing their order. The service currently offers whole cakes and pies rather than individual slices, allowing customers to pick up a dessert outside the bakery's regular business hours.

The lockers provide an interim option while Shyndigz repairs its separate dessert vending machine, which broke down on its opening day several months ago. The bakery has indicated that the vending machine, which was expected to offer cake slices and other items, will return soon.
