Something special 💕

To be asked to make cakes for your most special occasions makes my work so enjoyable and when it’s a combination like this I love it even more! This was for a christening celebration but could easily be tweaked for a birthday or baby shower? A few ideas between myself and my customer and this was the result, just perfect!

When a large amount of cake is needed and a specific cake style is wanted, going large on the cake can often spoil the look especially on something sonoretty as this so I often advise adding cupcakes which makes a lovely display alongside the main cake. There’s also the option to have 2 tiers or even just have an undecorated cutting cake in the background ready for your guests. Lots of options for those larger parties.
If you would like to book a cake for your next special occasion, whether it’s a smaller gathering or a large get together then use the links above and I can make you something just as stunning 💕

I think I’m in love!

I’ve been waiting to find some spare time & the right flowers to make the ever popular long cake & hallelujah! After yesterdays visit to cressingflowers I knew these were just perfect for what I had in mind. It needed to be rustic, textured, romantic & a bright pop of colour and I’ve ticked off all of those I think! Inside there are 4 layers of light strawberry sponge with alternate fillings of freeze dried strawberry buttercream & strawberry jam & vanillabean buttercream with sliced peaches, then coated with a rustic styled swiss meringue buttercream.

The flowers were individually wrapped & using food safe pics applied to the cake to avoid any contamination.

This style of cake has proved very popular this year especially for weddings when you can go all out & make the cake as big as as you need to serve your guests, so if you’re having a big wedding, go longer!!

It’s one that is definitely going on my wedding menu for 2027 and can’t wait to see how they look with all of the spring and summer blooms next year.

This is the kind of wedding cake I love to create, it’s classical, graceful and the subtle textured detailing just adds that little something.

Setting up my cakes at wedding venues always makes me feel quite emotional, I’m a bit of a softy for a wedding & being there in the background quietly putting together my contribution to your special day whilst others are bustling around me doing their part is a lovely feeling, and the most special thing is creating that moment when a couple sees their cake and thinks, “This is exactly what we wanted”. I would love to be a fly on the wall & catch that moment, there would definitely be tears 😂!

If you would like me to be part of your special day with a cake created just for you then get in touch via the links in the bio or better still come and see me on Sunday 11th October between 12pm - 4pm at Prested Hall Wedding & Events Venue where they are having a venue open day. There will be some cake tasters available with me and we can have a chat about your cake requirements.
There is a link on their page Prested Hall Wedding & Events Venue where you can RSVP to register your interest in attending.
Look forward to seeing you there! 💕

(Please note the background to the photo is AI but the cake is not altered or changed, it’s not something I like to use but so often at venues the background to the cake just doesn’t compliment the cake in photos such as a colour clash on the wall behind or even a firedoor so if needed the background can be blocked out)

A special cake request for a joint husband & wife’s 60th birthday party at the weekend.
This was 4 layers of light vanilla sponge with a delicious strawberry jam & vanilla buttercream filling decorated with textured buttercream & finished with vanilla macarons.
Followed by a lovely message from my customer ‘that cake was absolutely delicious!’
A cake shouldn’t just look great it has to taste amazing as well 💕
