“I really appreciated how straightforward it all was”

That’s always my aim when a busy mum books with me 😊

Planning a child’s birthday is already a lot, so I keep the cake side simple, organised and stress-free from the very start. You don’t need every tiny detail figured out; just send over the basics and I’ll guide you through the rest.

The result? A beautiful bespoke cake your child gets excited about and one less thing for you to worry about 🎂

3 things to sort before ordering your child’s birthday cake ⬇️

If you’re thinking about booking a birthday cake but have no idea where to start, don’t worry! You really don’t need everything planned out 😊

The main things I need are:
✔ The party date
✔ Rough guest numbers
✔ A theme, favourite character or colour idea

That’s enough for me to help guide the rest and make the whole process feel easy and stress-free for you 🎂

If your child’s birthday is coming up, fill out my enquiry form on my website and let’s get your cake sorted! Link in bio 🫶🏼

Millie saw a cake I had previously created for someone she knew, and loved it so much that she asked for the same but with a pink & white theme for her sweet sixteenth 🥰

The flavour of salted caramel is also a firm favourite with Millie & her family, they have ordered this flavour a few times now and always provide wonderful feedback on it 🫶🏼

It is such a privilege to create cakes for returning customers, I am forever grateful 💖
