When it's a milestone 60th birthday, you have to go all out with the details! 🚘 🍟

We had so much fun bringing this custom creation to life for a Porsche enthusiast.

Featuring a handcrafted edible Porsche crest, a bottle of Jack Daniel's, car keys, their dog, and a top layer piled high with fish and chips……this cake is packed with personal touches.

Can it get anymore personal!

Happy 60th Birthday! 🎂

My lovely client came to me wanting something elegant and simple for her husband’s birthday, with a subtle nod to his love of cricket.

So we kept things classic with a clean white finish, delicate cricket inspired details, a handmade bat pads and stumps, pops of red and, of course, a very special 70th birthday topper ❤️

I absolutely love how this one came together — sometimes the simplest designs make the biggest statement. ✨

Happy 70th Birthday! 🥂🎂🏏

I absolutely loved making this special cake for Brody’s first birthday.

There is something so fun and sweet about a cowboy theme for a very first birthday celebration—it’s just the best!

Happy 1st birthday Brody!

Mummy did the most fabulous job of theming your first birthday, it looked amazing 🐮💕

From a Full Moon, to a Half Moon, to a Solar Eclipse… all made from cake!

Which one would you choose?

🌕 Full Moon
🌙 Half Moon
🌑 Solar Eclipse

Think I know the answer! 🤣 Because let’s be honest… the only eclipse we really want to see is one made of cake! 💕

There is something so effortlessly elegant about pressed edible flowers on a crisp white cake, and this design was pure joy to create for a truly wonderful couple!

Delivered to the stunning Goldsborough Hall, this three-tiered creation features individually hand-placed pressed blooms-vibrant pansies, delicate cornflowers, lavender stems, and greenery-creating a natural, garden-meadow look that fitted the venue's beautiful setting perfectly. 🌸🌼🌺

Wishing the happy newlyweds a lifetime of love and happiness! 💕

It's not every day #95 himself speeds into the kitchen! 🏎️

I had so much fun carving and creating this 3D Lightning McQueen cake for a huge little fan's special day.

From the iconic flame decal to the Rust-eze logo on the bonnet, every single detail was a blast to work on. ⚡️

Wishing a very Happy Birthday to the birthday boy-hope your day was as fast and fun as McQueen! 🎂 🏁

Everything you see is handcrafted and entirely edible-perfect for celebrating a true beauty lover's special day!

Yesterday was a special one ✨

I had the absolute pleasure of delivering this beauty to the gorgeous Manor House in Lindley for Laura and Jake’s wedding.

Setting up in The Coach House with that stunning rustic backdrop was a dream! This was my first visit to the venue and I was so very impressed.

They wanted total romantic, soft pink vibes, so the delicate sugar paste flowers, their gold monogram which was on their invitations and finishing it off with that flowing blush ribbon just gave it the most elegant, dreamy feel.

Huge congratulations to Laura and Jake—you truly are a beautiful couple and it was an absolute honor to create this for you. 🥂💕

P.S A big thank you so The Big Red Oven - Wood Fired Pizzawho kindly let me use their fridge van for the delivery….this week has been a hot one in the kitchen!
