Time to celebrate with family and friends, Time to relax knowing that the exams are behind you. Time to take pride in your achievements.

These bespoke cupcakes and toppers are a particularly special way to express pride in friends and family and to celebrate their success. We would like to say ‘well done’ to all those who have graduated this summer, too and good luck with the next chapter of your life.
We’re often asked for themed cupcakes and this time we were asked to come up with some ideas for a few best loved places that have been visited for a special birthday. Spain and France are featured but we wonder how many more places you can name?

Say it with flowers – a pot full, complete with chocolate soil.

Valentine’s Day is always a hectic time of year and this year was no exception. We have lots of requests to include messages on our cupcakes or to include a special message on a card. Of course, Valentine’s Day is traditionally associated with tokens of love but other dates throughout the year are also special – the first date, the first anniversary – and sweet treats such as these red velvet cupcakes are the best way we know of making the occasion memorable. What’s your special day? – make it a day to remember.
A 2-tier vanilla sponge cake for this 30th celebration in her favourite colours of lavender and pink with floral accents.
This floral tribute was requested as a surprise for a much-loved Gran celebrating her milestone 80th birthday with family and friends. We hope it was a memorable birthday made extra special with this sweet treat.
Our mission was to give this design a 70s vibe with lots of flowers and lots of colour. Our customer could hardly contain her delight when she saw the finished design. We’re pleased to say we captured her requirements exactly and we hope her mum was as thrilled with it as she was.
We’re so lucky to be able to share in your celebrations – and here we have a celebration cake fit for a 3 year old. Dinosaurs are Kalam’s favourite thing, so we couldn’t disappoint, could we?
This egg-free 2-tier vanilla sponge features a baby dinosaur topper. We love to hear your feedback on our cakes and in the words of Kalam’s mum this design was simply ‘perfect’.
It has been an exceptionally busy year for us and we would like to send our thanks along with seasons greetings to all our customers.
We hope you all enjoyed your Christmas together with loving family and great friends and found some time among the festivities to put your feet up and relax a little! We know how difficult that can be!
We look forward to hearing from you in the New Year and to see what cake challenges you set for us in 2019. Don’t forget, whatever you’re celebrating – we have a cake for it!
We hope you all have a wonderful New Year.
No one needs to twist anyone’s arm to get them to eat more cake, – my husband, the self-appointed chief taster – is testament to that.

December is always a very busy time for us bakers. It’s also a short month so that we always advise our customers to order their celebration cakes early as – just like in the high wedding season – December is always booked up early. This year has been exceptionally busy and, regrettably, we’ve had to disappoint a lot of people. Take a look at our contact page for the suggested length of notice we usually ask for then at least double it during peak periods.
Whatever the time of year and whatever you’re celebrating – please ensure you order in plenty of time to avoid disappointment.
We’ll take this opportunity to wish all our customers the very best of the season and we look forward to providing more fabulous designs for you in 2019.
Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!
‘Red Velvet is her favourite cake’ we were told when Navi’s husband placed this order for her upcoming birthday. We couldn’t disappoint her…
A beautiful floral display of brightly coloured flowers as a fitting tribute to Madeleine – 80 years young and looking forward to a family celebration. Floral colours included pink, lemon and lavender.
Check out this awsome engagement cake! Our couple are obviously fans of Mickey and Minnie mouse. Elements of this mono design include hearts as well as Mickey and Minnie in silhouette and topped off with an ‘engagement’ ring.
We often get unusual requests – and this is one of them. But whilst it might be unusual to some of us I was assured that Gemma’s mechanic boyfriend would love it! He likes nothing better than tinkering with cars. So here we have a replica of a turbo – a chocolate cake turbo just for him. Well, maybe a few sharing.
Disney is always popular and ageless – children, couples – everyone has their favourite Disney moment.
Here we have Mickey and Minnie Mouse in this mono design engagement cake.
We all know trends come and go. There is always the next new ‘big thing’ but one request that is always on trend is the call for Superhero cakes. Here is one such request from a young man who has had a tough year. For his birthday nothing less than the man of steel would do. it had to be Superman and it had to be chocolate.
No sooner said than done! We hope it made his day.
There’s a superhero in all of us – we just need the courage to put on the cape!
Everyone has a favourite cake – or at least a cake that they find it difficult to refuse. This is one of those cakes as far as we’re concerned. Carrot cake is one of our most requested flavours and the addition of real carrot ensures a moist crumb is guaranteed.
Carrot cake is a welcome addition to any dessert table. Check out this birthday edition complete with chopped walnuts and topped off with sugar carrots. What a special treat…go on – you know you want to,,,
