​

What flavours of cake can I have?

Just about any, within reason! The most popular remain chocolate, vanilla and lemon but if your heart's desire is a banana cake, then let me know and I’ll see what I can do! It truly is a bespoke service.

​

Can I have different flavours in my tiered cake?

Of course you can! If a mixture of fruit cake and sponge is required I would advise on having the fruit cake at the base given its weight.

​

Can you just ice a cake?

We understand the sentimental significance of having a family member bake your cake and we are happy to decorate this for you however we only do this for fruit cakes. We must ask that the cakes conform to our strict guidelines so that we can achieve an appropriate finished look and you are not disappointed with the end result.
