Celebration Cakes
Whether it’s for a birthday, baby shower, anniversary, christening, or corporate gathering, no celebration is complete without a beautiful cake!
Cakes are often the heart of a celebration, creating a stunning centrepiece that brings joy to any occasion. Just like my wedding cakes, every celebration cake is custom-made to suit the event that’s taking place.
From delicate sugar flowers and intricate royal icing piping, a variety of techniques can be used. All of these elements come together to help tell a story through the cake, making it all the more meaningful for your special occasion.
The Flavours
Selecting your cake flavour is just as important as the design, because naturally it’s got to taste as good as it looks. Only the best ingredients are used including organic flour from Shipton and Mill, the finest Belgian chocolate from Callebaut and only ever free-range, happy eggs.
Flavours are kept as classic as possible, but suggestions are always welcomed. Fondant covered cakes include a layer of white chocolate ganache beneath, sealing the cake further and evening out any colour differences in multiple flavoured tiers.
Celebration cakes are finished in fondant or ganache and very occasionally buttercream (this is weather dependant).

Allergens
Kindly inform us of any allergies or dietary requirements prior to booking. While gluten-free options are available, please note that all products are prepared in a kitchen that handles common allergens, including gluten (wheat), dairy, eggs, and nuts. As the kitchen is not an allergen-free environment, cross-contamination may occur. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate eggless or dairy-free requests at this time.
Pricing & Portions
Every celebration cake is crafted to order, ensuring it receives the same care and attention to detail as a wedding cake. These cakes are designed to be just as beautiful and unique, often requiring a high level of artistry and precision to bring intricate designs to life.
Celebration cakes start at a minimum of £200, reflecting the time and craftsmanship involved in their creation.
Portion sizes for celebration cakes are typically 2” x 2” x 5”, offering generous servings for your event. Below is a guide to approximate servings by cake size:
- 6” cake: Serves around 14

I was blown away by the cake Anne made for my daughter’s birthday! The design was stunning, and the attention to detail was incredible. It was almost too beautiful to eat—though when we did, it was absolutely delicious! Everyone at the party was talking about it.
