Just done this fabulous chocolate feathered wedding cake - decorated entirely in Belgian chocolate paste, with strawberry-flavoured chocolate roses. It even smells chocolatey!

Had a really busy day at Prested Hall wedding fair on Sunday - tiring though!

Just added this airplane cake for the 40th birthday of an ex-stewardess. To give an idea of the size of the plane, the board it's on is 20in x 20in, and the cake will give 40-50 portions.

Did a very rude x-rated birthday cake today, that I couldn't possibly post a pic of on this blog!

Just added pictures of this year's Christmas cakes

This novelty cake was for a crossword fan. The crossword clues & answers are personalised & the mug is a replication of the recipient's favourite mug. As always, everything is edible  :O)

Spent a mad weekend Christmas baking!  :O)

This is a casino cake I did for a James Bond-themed 18th birthday party. The roulette wheel & board are anatomically correct (to the best of my knowledge!) and even the gun & diamonds are edible.

Got a few wedding fairs lined up for the new year - come and see some of my wedding cakes at:

  • Sun 15th January 2012 @ Prested Hall (Feering, Essex)
  • Sun 5th February 2012 @ the Ivy Hill Hotel (Chelmsford, Essex)
  • Sun 4th March 2012 @ Great Hallingbury Manor  (Bishop's Stortford, Herts)

When this customer came to collect her circus birthday cake and coordinating circus cookies for her son's 1st birthday, I asked why she'd come all the way to me from London (in nightmare Friday evening rush hour traffic too) when there are so many cake makers more local to her. She said that she'd looked around for ages before deciding on me as she liked my cakes the best. What a lovely compliment!  :O) Circus cakeCircus elephant cake topperCircus elephant cake topperCircus cookies

 

 

 

Finally... I am moving!  From 1st October I'll be based in Sible Hedingham, Essex 

Just booked onto an airbrushing course in August - wish it was sooner as I'm not good at waiting! Look out for lots more airbrushed designs after that when I get carried away ;O) ... In the meantime, check out my Autumn Leaves wedding cake which was done this way.

Now fully booked for cakes in the following weeks this summer:
- week ending May 7th
- week ending June 11th
- week ending July 30th
- week ending August 20th

Come & see me at the Prested Hall wedding fair (Feering, Colchester) on Sunday 26th Sept, where I'll be displaying some of my wedding cakes

Most popular colour scheme for weddings at the moment seems to be overwhelmingly purple! Although you might not think so to look at the wedding cakes currently on my site, orders on my books already as far as 2012 are purple, purple & more purple, from lilac to Cadbury.

Still hoping to move to Suffolk/Essex asap, have found a place to buy but haven't yet managed to sell - property market seems to be dead right now. Doesn't look like I'll be going anywhere before Christmas at this rate  :O(

Been a busy week this week - had 3 cakes on the go including two wedding cakes & a birthday cake - but loved it  :O)

Recently had the 10,000th visitor to my site!

I still hate doing mini cakes... life's too short... but they do look good!

Now full for 2010 and taking wedding cake orders for 2011/2012.  Later this year I'll be relocating to Essex/Suffolk - hoping to be there well before Christmas!  If you're an existing customer though, don't worry, as I'll still be taking & fulfilling orders for Stevenage & surrounding areas   :O)

Here it is... the guitar cake!

Yesterday's wedding fair was a great success (but hard work!). See some of the wedding cakes featured here

Booked solid for summer - now taking wedding cake orders for November 2010 onwards

Just taken an order for a two-and-a-half foot guitar cake! Watch out for that one on site in July

Full up for wedding cakes in October now too
