I'm passionate about creating tasty bespoke cakes with a flair for colour and natural form & can't wait to make the perfect dreamy cake for you.
My flavours are DELICIOUS, if I do say so myself! And so many couples tell me that their cake is the best they and their guests have ever tasted.
My prices are very reasonable - I want you to know as when I was planning my own wedding it was one of the first things I'd be looking for when choosing a supplier. I don't believe in charging more just because it's a wedding, I will give the same love and attention and always work with what's achievable in your budget.
Whether it's a 4 tier cake, a simply sweet single tier, a cake table filled with lots of yummy bakes, favours & kitchen cakes, the choice is yours & I love to get creative. I've been professionally baking for over 14 years & produced thousands of cakes for London's top bakeries (Hummingbird Bakery & Konditor) before setting up Bakerlu in 2017. Catering to a wide range of dietary requirements. Be sure to follow me on Instagram (@bakerlu_thecake) on Facebook & Pinterest where you'll find lots of images of previous creations & top reviews. Get in touch with any questions or to arrange a tasting & design consultation. Look forward to hearing all about your big day!

Do you deliver?
Yes I do, I travel with your cakes in their own boxes, keeping cool in my air conditioned car and assemble them on site on the day - because let's face it, who wants to think about collecting on their wedding day?!
Delivery is worked out on an individual basis so just get in touch with me to tell me where your venue is so I can do aa quote.

What about your business are you most proud of?
The feedback I receive from couples is incredible, makes me feel so proud to create something that is such a special and memorable part of their day.
Are you a gay-friendly wedding supplier?
I am just friendly in general, whatever your scenario - you don’t have to ask here. I want it to go without saying but just to assure you I am a LGBTQ+ friendly supplier.
Some of our guests have allergies - can you tell me what's in each product or cater for them?
I can supply your venue with a list of allergens or even a whole product specification sheet, I recommend having labels next to the cake to say what's in them especially in this scenario. I can make separate cakes to cater for dietary requirements but cannot guarantee anything is completely free from any traces of other ingredients used within the bakery.
There's often a real mix of couples who want to cater for absolutely everyone and couples who say 'oh forget Aunt Mary she'll just have to not have any cake'
The choice is yours - minimum cupcake batches of 6 start at £18 and they can be individually boxed and can look nice at a place setting.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
A quick chat to discuss initial requirements and a guide price, then if it's all sounding good we get to the best bit- eating cake!!! And a more in depth chat about your day, colours and design ideas that are unique to you as a couple. A rough sketch during the cake tasting and consultation followed by a quotation emailed after with a 2 week grace period to confirm booking. If you go ahead then the cost of your taster and consultation is deducted from the final total, win win.
What is your signature cake?
People LOVE my White Chocolate & Berries, it's like a pimped up Victoria. It's a firm favourite for weddings with a scrumptious Italian meringue buttercream which is light and not as sweet as traditional buttercream and a good tang of berry compote.
Another stunner is the Ginger and Rhubarb!
What is the most original creation you have baked for a wedding?
A zombie themed scene hidden at the back of a cake was pretty unique! And recently a gothic black coffin shaped cake with Till Death on top!
Describe how you got into making wedding cakes.
After traveling around Europe and North America, discovering incredible bakeries along the way, I embarked on a Bakery Course. After receiving my Level 3 Diploma I moved to London to work in the top bakeries there and loved the buzz of creating showstopping cakes that taste amazing. When I moved back to the Midlands to set up my own bakery, the enquiries cake in thick and fast and I'm loving bringing London standard cakes to the local area.
How much for a 3 tier cake?
The golden question! The smallest size 3 tier I make starts from £380 for approx 60 wedding portions. Bespoke prices aren't as scary as you think. Of course prices will depend on how many people you need to feed, what other food choices you might have available and how much you happen to adore gold leaf. Feel free to ask me anything and I'll always have a nice open chat about what's available and what suits your budget.
