Best wedding cake

We met Toni just a year before our wedding day for cake tasting. We instantly felt her passion & when we tried the cakes we were blown away. We chose chocolate, lemon & banoffee for our 3-tiered wedding cake (the banoffee surprised us!). All her flavours were amazing, making it so hard to choose from. On the day itself, the cake was better than what we imagined, both in looks & in taste. We had many compliments from our guests. Would definitely be recommending! Thank you again Toni.

Exquisite

We had a fabulous consultation with Toni about what we would like to do for our wedding cake. She gave us lots of options that we could go with to suit our budget. The end result was an exquisite cake that was enjoyed by us and our guests

Marvel Wedding Cake

"Toni was amazing every step of the way! She took our initial idea and gave us several options to choose from. We chose quite basic flavours but after we received the samples we changed our minds! The cherry Bakewell is incredible! She accommodated our needs including vegan cupcakes for some guests and delivered the perfect cake for our Scottish marvel wedding ☺️ thank you Toni! We will be coming back for more cakes!

Just ..... thank you!

Thank you so much for our beautiful, unique wedding cake. We couldn't have picked a better person to create such a perfect cake for our special day. From the initial cake tasting to the cake reveal, we were relaxed and reassured that everything would be perfect! So many of our guests commented on how different and unique the cake was with the hexagonal base and how fantastic it tasted!

Not even the crumbs were safe!

Thank you Toni for the most beautiful wedding cake. You looked after us every step of the way. The cake was delicious, all three layers. All the guests were asking at the wedding who made the cake and at the end of the night there was nothing left…even the crumbs were not safe!

Best Cake Ever

OMG the best cake I have ever eaten! I booked Red Velvet for my Wedding Cake after trying the Cherry Bakewell flavour at a Wedding Open Evening and there were no regrets! Toni was so lovely and the cake tasting was amazing; everything was so delicious and we were able to pick whatever flavours we wanted (even bespoke ones) and completely customise the cake to our theme. We went with the Cherry Bakewell, Banoffee and Rum and Whiskey and Orange and I enjoyed every single bite. The guests were blown away by how good it tasted and it stayed good for a whole week - which is how long it took us to finish what we’d bought home! Not only did it taste great it also looked amazing, again we got so many compliments on this! Toni was lovely to work with and took the time to message me the night before the Wedding and to say hello and congratulate me on the morning which is really going above and beyond on the customer service.

The most amazing wedding cake!

Toni was absolutely amazing in delivering what we envisioned our cake to be for our big day. We decided early on that we wanted a gluten free wedding as I am coeliac and we wanted to reduce the risk. Toni talked us through our options and made additional samples for us to choose from. The flavours were completely bespoke and the cake turned out to be so amazing. The perspex cake menu was also so cute! Everyone loved it!!! Thankyou so much 💓

cakesFaqQuestion1

I delivered a Star Wars themed wedding cake recently and seeing both the bride and groom cry when I took it out of the box absolutely made my day!

What is your most memorable wedding?

All weddings are memorable for their own reasons. For me, getting to do a cake reveal with a couple and seeing their reaction makes my heart smile

Tasty, fun, stylish, unique, colourful

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Elegant, quirky, colourful, modern, beautiful

cakesFaqQuestion3

I am so proud that my business was born from a love of baking for my husband who has an extremely sweet tooth. I baked so much he ended up bringing cakes to work everyday! One day, I received a telephone call from his boss asking me to make his daughter's birthday cake and the rest as they say, is history .......

What about your business are you most proud of?

How much we have grown, especially during lockdown. Moving into purpose built premises in 2022 was a huge step for us, but this allows us to have my creative space, room for teaching and somewhere fabulous for couples for come along and meet with us for consultations

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Have the wedding cake you want, not the cake you think you should have! Your wedding cake maker is here to make the whole process easier so ask lots of questions

cakesFaqQuestion4

Wedding cakes cost more than you think so try and set yourself a realistic budget. Don't choose someone because they are the cheapest. Choose the person you are most comfortable with. Your wedding cake will probably be the most expensive cake you'll ever buy!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

I recently made a cake for a bride who has lost both her mum and her grandma in the run up to her wedding. We included embellishments from both their cakes on her own cake, even though it didn't work with her chosen style, but the significance behind the items meant so much more than the cake itself.

cakesFaqQuestion5

I have seen so many but little things like water bowls for dogs at a teepee wedding, storm trooper table decorations, hand made Marvel comic table flowers .... I could be here for hours!

cakesFaqQuestion6

I love cake consultations with couples. It's a great opportunity for me to get to know the couple and for them to get to know me. These consultations are a great way of pulling lots of ideas together, making each cake personal and making sure it's all in the detail. It also means cake tasting!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Whether we chat on the phone or via email initially, I will always arrange a face to face with couples. We can do this in person at our studio in Melbourne or online via Zoom. These chats are a great way of getting to know each other and for me to find out more about what kind of cake is required. It also helps me to find out that must haves and the don't wants, along with helping a couple to start the design process of their cake.

We also offer sample boxes which all couples receive as part of the process (the best bit!!).

Once a quote has been accepted and deposits paid, I will keep in touch with a couple in the run up to the wedding to ensure that everything is still how it should be and ensure that any last minute requests are accommodated.

What is your signature cake?

Red Velvet has always been my favourite and signature bake but it's quickly becoming cherry bakewell and rum and ginger!

cakesFaqQuestion7

My most popular flavours are chocolate fudge, lemon + raspberry, salted caramel, red velvet and sticky toffee

cakesFaqQuestion8

A star wars themed wedding cake with one tier stencilled to look like the death star!

cakesFaqQuestion9

My business was born from a love of baking and the need to satisfy my husband’s very sweet tooth! I was made redundant just after getting married and had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do next. I was bored at home and still in that fabulous newly wed stage so thought I'd bake my new husband a cake. Once I started that was me, I'd got the baking bug! I couldn't wait to try different flavours, go on cake decorating classes to pick up hints and tips. And that feeling hasn't changed. Initially I took it slowly, it was just cupcakes I offered. Then came birthday cakes and then wedding cakes. I didn't want to jump head first and get it wrong so I took my time, built my business up slowly and learnt some valuable tips along the way. Wedding cakes are now my favourite to make because of the thought process, the love, the meaning that goes into each and every one.

Chocolate fudge cake with lotus biscoff buttercream - my absolute favourite!
