Claire baked and decorated a wonderful cake for my Mum's 90th birthday which she loved. The decoration included replicas of nursing badges, Welsh cakes and jam making and love of flowers and countryside to celebrate her life. Perfect. It tasted good too !

I needed a cake to celebrate the Head of Lawrence Sheriff School having served for 20 years. It needed to serve 120 people. Claire came up with excellent design and delivered the cake to the school on the morning of the celebration. It was absolutely wonderful. The Head and the staff thought that the design was very appropriate - tasteful and understated. They were even more thrilled to learn that there were 3 flavours of cake - which suited all tastes. The cake was delicious and several staff came back for a second and, in some cases, a third slice. I cannot praise Claire's skill or professionalism
