Report
We thoroughly recommend Catherine and her team to anyone searching for a wedding cake provider. Our wedding cake was beautiful, and tasted amazing and was so popular we had very little leftover to take home ourselves! The choice provided by Catherine is immense, with a vast array of flavours that made choosing very difficult. In the end we chose Lemon, Carrot cake, champagne and strawberry and a traditional fruit cake layer, all tasted very good and many of our guests commented on how good the cake was. The service we had from Catherine was amazing, especially during COVID when we were rearranging

Catherine's incredible England rugby cake, complete with personalised figures of my husband and I, was a huge talking point at our wedding. Many said it was the best cake they had ever seen! Wonderful detail and an even better taste - red velvet and toffee/salted caramel. Catherine was a delight to deal with and very kind with all the covid changes. Thank you Catherine for making our day even more perfect!
