If you’ve ever wondered why cake decorators get so excited over the right shade of ganache… let me tell you, it’s a journey! 😂

Colouring ganache isn’t as simple as adding a bit of colour and hoping for the best. One minute you’re aiming for a gorgeous royal blue, and the next you’ve somehow created a shade that can only be described as “questionable”. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Some colours need patience, some deepen overnight, some refuse to cooperate, and black? Well… black likes to test your character! 😅

But when it finally comes together and you get that perfect, smooth finish, it’s so worth all the trial, error, and muttering under your breath.

So if you’ve ever seen a beautifully coloured cake and thought, “That looks easy,” just know there was probably a decorator having a very one-sided conversation with a bowl of ganache somewhere along the way! 😂🎂

What’s the trickiest colour you’ve ever had to work with?

This weather has definitely been putting cakes to the test! ☀️🎂

Working in the heat takes a little more planning, a lot more patience, and a few extra trips to the fridge… but seeing a happy customer at the end makes it all worthwhile.

I’m so pleased they loved the finished cake! 💕

A huge thank you to all my customers for trusting me with your special celebrations, even during this heatwave. Every cake is made with care to make sure it looks as beautiful as possible and tastes just as good.

Happy customer = happy baker! 🩷

There’s something effortlessly elegant about a cake in a n**e colour palette. 🤍

Soft creams, warm beiges, delicate taupes, and subtle blush tones never go out of style. They create a timeless, sophisticated look that complements any celebration, from weddings and birthdays to baby showers and anniversaries.

Sometimes, less really is more. A beautifully crafted cake with neutral tones lets the details shine, proving that understated can be just as breathtaking as bold.

Classic, luxurious, and always in style… n**e palettes will forever have a special place in my heart. ✨

There’s something truly special about making wedding cakes.

Behind every finished cake is hours upon hours of planning, baking, filling, stacking, decorating, and often a fair bit of worrying too! Wedding cakes can be stressful — early mornings, late nights, delicate details, transportation nerves, and the pressure of creating something perfect for such an important day.

But despite the stress, the time, and the hard work, there is so much joy in it.

I never take for granted the trust couples place in me to create a centrepiece for one of the most memorable days of their lives. Seeing a design come together from an idea into something beautiful is incredibly rewarding, and knowing it will be part of a celebration filled with love makes it even more meaningful.

Every wedding cake tells a story, and I feel so lucky to have been a small part of so many wonderful couples’ journeys over the years. From elegant and timeless designs to cakes that reflect a couple’s unique personality, each one has been a privilege to create.

To all the lovely couples who have chosen me to make their wedding cake, thank you. Your trust, kindness, and support mean more than you know. While the process can be challenging at times, the happiness that comes from creating something beautiful for your special day makes every moment worthwhile.

I truly feel blessed to do what I love and to have shared in so many unforgettable celebrations. ❤️

Happy 6th birthday to Eliza!

I hated piping for so long until I started using chocolate ganache instead of buttercream, complete game changer!
I shared a video of the process of decorating this cake, decided to add some little mouldings to finish it off, so here’s the final result.
Love how it turned out ❤️🎂

I was going to do a voice over for this video but the tunes are way too good! 😂
I used white chocolate ganache for everything, what a dream to work with!! ❤️
More to do today, will share soon 😘

What looks delicate and effortless actually takes hours of meticulous hand work.

Each edible ruffle is individually created, carefully shaped, and layered one by one. No shortcuts. No moulds. Just time, patience, and craftsmanship.

The beauty of sugar art is that every tiny detail is temporary… and entirely edible ❤️

Usually I’m a fondant girly through and through, so buttercream piping definitely takes me out of my comfort zone 👀

This cake was a bit of a challenge for me — especially working with mock SMBC and focusing on piping instead of fondant finishes — but I actually really enjoyed pushing myself creatively.

It’s not my strongest skill set (yet!) but I think growth comes from trying the things that don’t feel easy. Every cake teaches me something new ❤️
