The Nuthouse Bakery is a small, independent bakery located in the West Midlands. Our specialty is teaching the fine art of cake baking and decorating. Our regular classes and workshops take place in our home kitchen, which provides a personal touch for as many as four students at a time. We can accommodate larger classes if necessary – or even one-on-one instruction which, if needed, can take place at your home. Our website lists full details of our classes and schedules. Please feel free to visit each page and sample our offerings. We are especially proud of our very popular Cupcake Bootcamp, where you’ll learn everything you need to know about cupcakes -- from how to prepare and bake to ensuring the perfect light, moist, delicious result. We also cover decoration using a variety of techniques and products including buttercream and sugar paste. For Christmas, Valentine’s Day and Easter, we gear up with seasonal classes to fit the occasion. Want to improve your technique in specific areas? We are more than happy to create a class to meet your requirements for a group booking – and what a fantastic way to start off a hen party or other social event! Where other trainers’ instruction ends, ours is still getting started! We’ll share from our personal experience as a custom-baking provider and will happily provide guidance via phone or email after you have attended one of our classes and need some help to get something 'just right'! We don’t abandon you to a fate of kitchen frustration. Let us know what you need – whether it’s cupcakes or larger cakes suitable for cutting, we’ll help you make it happen. Remember, you not only learn how to make something fabulous – you get to take it home with you. In fact, if there’s a one-of-a-kind design in your head that you’d like for your very own, we can help you bring it to life. Food Hygiene Rating 5

When every detail counts no matter the size of the cake. Just because you choose to have a small intimate wedding doesn't mean your cake can't be a statement piece. One of my most popular designs. Timeless and elegant, buttercream or sugarpaste this design holds it own.

Not posted in a while...I'm awful these days at social media.

A three tier grooved buttercream wedding cake from earlier this year. I had to set up in the corner to avoid it being in direct sunlight behind a glass window, cake was moved later in the day.

Thought I would share this... Some clients may get upset when I say I don't like working with artificial flowers, or when I state I want them provided to me on stems and I'll do the prep work myself. There is a reason for this : hygiene, allergies to name a few.

This is an image from some artificial flowers provided to me recently for a wedding. The Bride (who is lovely) totally not at fault here but rather highlights the SHODDY customer service from a well known preferred wedding venue dresser/decorator that boast celebrity clients.

The artificial flowers provided to me by him had previously been used on/in a wedding cake, handed to me with god knows what on them and he felt this was acceptable. Obviously not checked when returned just boxed and given to the next couple needing to use them. Godly only knows what contamination would have occurred had I just stuck them in the cake as who knows how long that stuff has been on them and let alone what it was.

I thoroughly check everything provided to me. Not to ruin the bride's day I stripped and cleaned/sanitised all items at the venue and placed them in a food safe manor onto the cake. I can only hope the company in question cleans them before handing them over to the next wedding couple again... But I somehow think they won't!

So ladies and gents please be wary of this! There's a reason we ask what we ask...not to be difficult but to prevent this from happening.

Looking forward to meeting all of next year's lovely  couples today . Venue looking amazing today.
