Tiger Lily Cake Company

Tiger Lily Cake Company Bespoke hand made cakes for any occasion. Designed and decorated to your requirement to a high stand

My company is based on the belief that the cake forms the centrepiece of most occasions, and as such I strive to create above and beyond my customers expectations. I am totally committed and understand what an honour it is to be a part of any special occasion. Whether it's a Birthday, Anniversary, Christening or Wedding, I think it's essential to work together to ensure that the final piece is exa

ctly what you would like. There is still the on-going argument as to whether the look or taste of a cake is the most important; I say why not have both?! As a result, a high percentage of my business is from repeat customers and referrals. Each cake is priced on its own merit; some require more intricate detailed work than others, and therefore the cost will reflect this. If you have a particular budget, we can discuss options for designs, keeping within this. I have successfully completed the PME Professional Diploma Courses in Royal Icing & Piping, Sugar Flowers and Sugarpaste, and in doing so achieved my Masters Certificate in Cake Decorating. As well as these, I have a Level 2 CIEH Award in Food Safety in Catering, Liability Insurance and have the maximum 5 rating with the Local Environmental Health Team, for hygiene and business standards. I would welcome the opportunity to earn your trust and become an important part of your special occasion. I am able to offer cakes that are dairy/gluten free for those that are affected by an intolerance, but not for those that are allergic and at risk of anaphylaxis. All customers must state upon ordering if there are any dietary requirements or ingredients they may react to. I use strawberry jam in all vanilla cakes unless an alternative is requested, and under most celebration cakes I use a layer of ganache - white choc for vanilla/lemon etc, and milk/dark for chocolate cakes. If you would prefer to have a buttercream finish under your sugar paste can you please make sure you advise me when ordering. In order to secure your order I require a 50% deposit, to be paid upon confirmation of your order. For Wedding Cakes, the same applies but is required at least 6 months in advance, due to their complexity. The balance needs to be paid in cleared funds upon collection/delivery. Delivery is free within 2 miles of my home address in Stowmarket, and beyond this I charge the current rate set by HMRC.

I’m still getting a lot of messages regarding new cake requests. I hate being rude by not replying, so I shall again share this status.

It’s incredibly hard for me as I utterly adore making cakes; but when your family breaks apart sometimes there’s no other option.

It is with exceptional sadness that I have to write this post. As I mentioned before Christmas, things have been very tricky at home. My husband & I separated at the beginning of November, which means I am unable to carry on with my little business as well as juggle the finances & work load that being a single mother and full time carer for my son entails.

All of the cakes that are booked in with me will of course still be honoured, but I will not be taking any further bookings at this time.

It has been such a privilege to be a part of each and every one of your lives and amazing celebrations. I have absolutely loved this job, it's not one you do for financial gain by any means; but to be trusted to make each and every cake has been an honour, and I will so miss it and all of you.

Thank you in advance, for your patience and understanding at this difficult time.

Cheers to everyone who has ordered a cake from me this year; for all those children whose cakes I’ve made and watch grow up too fast for their parents liking, the most special wedding days I’ve been a trusted part of, the anniversaries celebrating at times the battle that life throws at us, the beautiful baby showers & christenings, the milestones and non-milestone birthdays for people (still young) old and (I’m so not) young, and my absolute favourites - the first ever birthdays. I also hope all the cakes I’ve made for free to donate to causes close to my heart, have done some good and helped in any way. My last work cake went out this evening so this is the solo Christmas Party for Tiger Lily!

This year has had its fair share of difficulties for me. One of the hardest was when I had 5 weeks of hell from the 9th October when I found a thumbprint size indent on one of my breasts, and was sent for urgent mammograms, ultrasound and an MRI. Thankfully I’m fine but after watching my adopted dad die of the disease it was the most frightening time of my life.

I have had another major life change in regards to my marriage, which I will keep private but means that it may take me slightly longer to reply to messages and send over quotes.

I have many cakes still to upload from the last few weeks, which I will try to do over the next couple of weeks. But I’d like to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas - cheers! xXx

Aware that it’s been a little while since I last posted! Have had some personal issues that have taken up my time the last few weeks but am back to caking this week. Looking very much forward to seeing lots of you on the 25th at the Cedars Park Community Centre Christmas Fair - will post details nearer the time!

James & Hayley’s Wooden Wonderland 💖

Final wedding of the year for me, and I absolutely adored this from start to finish. 7” tall chocolate, and white choc & raspberry flake covered with chocolate ganache. Hand painted silver birch effect finish, with their initials ‘carved’ into the top tier. Completed with handmade sugar roses, dahlia, eucalyptus leaf strands and dahlia buds to match the brides bouquet. Many, many congratulations to you both - I’m so glad you had a fantastic day xXx @ All Manor Of Events At Manor Farm Barn - The Venue With A Difference
