Lil' Baker

Lil' Baker Creating designer cakes. Lil' Baker was the name my older sister gave our little 'bakery'. Selling them every weekend to our neighbours was fun. A lot.

We created five mini-doughnuts with a custard or chocolate dip for our customers to choose from. Two of my cousins were the 'delivery' girl or boy. They'd come to our house whenever we yelled across each house to one another and they would happily come and take the order to the needed place, (which was usually less than two hundred meters away). We paid them in doughnuts. Or, at least I think we d

id. But the real story behind Lil' Baker are two sisters. Two sisters who fell in love with baking. Who fell in love with the idea that food would make people so happy and therefore, wasted their mothers' ingredients.. Thankfully, their mother baked too. She was a professional - worked abroad in a bakery and whatnot, made wedding cakes, birthday cakes, made bread, cookies, mousse, puddings, trifles, tarts, pies.. You name it, she could whip it up pronto. Probably where our inspiration came from. Alas, there's only so much time you have until O Levels, A/S, A Levels, Uni, and then, eventually, life slaps you in the face. And so, it slapped me. My sister was long gone to uni by the time I started my design degree. During those four years, I baked. I made cookies and chocolate chip muffins for my friends and really really really loved seeing how their eyes lit up at the sight of the freshly baked goodies. And then they ate, and smiled and laughed. Such genuine happiness, all from one thing - food. Let's fast forward to today - the day I say 'Hello!' and welcome, to the opening of Lil' Baker. We make cupcakes, chocolate chip cookies, doughnuts and churros. (The last two, we're still trying to perfect). We hope you treasure everything that makes you happy, just like we do with baking delicious goodies for you.

The most frequently asked question I get; ‘how do I place an order?’

If you message me saying ‘pp,’ with 8 images of cakes and no other details, I will not respond to you.

If I’m taking the time to quote, bake, design and create something special for you, please return 1/100th of my efforts by reading at least the first page of this post and messaging me all details requested on page 1. I’ll get back to you asap (but this can vary between 1-3 days).

Why 1-3 days? I’m just one person (for now), and I run this page (Lil’ Baker), supply cakes and sweet treats to , and do my freelance graphics work as well, so pleeeeease bare with my response time until I hire some help 🫶

If you need a cake for immediate pick up (no design, just something YUMMMM), you can check with if they have any full cakes. Open Monday - Saturday (and some Sundays).

Kindly note that I do not take up orders via BlueSpoon. Please message me here directly for pre-orders ♡

Dhanushan’s series: The bird cake

This too had such a unique flavour profile! He always manages to come up with the best concoctions 🧪

A vanilla cake with a cream cheese-infused Italian meringue buttercream (‘IMBC’), a dark chocolate ganache dam with raspberry coulis and crushed red velvet cookies.

The outside of this was a vanilla Italian meringue but buttercream, painting included.

Can you see how many layers of colour were put over one another for each bird?

ps: all birds are local! 🇱🇰🐧

Cake is inspired by a 2-tier light blue bird painted cake sent to me by the client, I can’t seem to find the original creator though.

Dhanushan’s series: The pastel wreath cake

This had such an interesting flavour profile!
A dense chocolate cake with a triple chocolate Italian meringue buttercream (‘IMBC’), a dark chocolate ganache filling and crushed red velvet cookies. The outside of this was a vanilla ‘IMBC,’ with crushed bits of peppermint candy canes in them. You can see them in the close ups :D

Cake is inspired by Stacey’s ‘raspberry & almond’ cake on her blog,

Dhanushan’s series: The dainty piped cake 🌷

It’s been a minute since I posted! Lotssss of backlog cakes and treats to post up, but first, before I forget, let me complete this series.

A cake from mid 2024 which I was convinced I couldn’t do because of how intricate the detailing on the original was.

Inspired by another vintage porcelain cake sent by the client. Unfortunately to this day, I’m still unable to find the original creator. Please tag them below if you know them 🩵
