BIRTHDAY CAKE FAQ's
How far in advance should I book my cake?
I recommend that you get in touch as soon as you know the date of your celebration or event. Dates can become fully booked months in advance so early booking is advised to avoid disappointment. I do take last minute orders when I have availability, however for any bespoke elements, ideally I require at least two weeks notice.
Do you offer 'free from' cakes?
Many of my flavours are available in 'made without' alternatives, including gluten and dairy free, as well as vegan options too. However, I cannot guarantee my cakes are free from allergens as my cakes are produced in a kitchen where ingredients containing these allergens are used, including nuts.​​
I can't find what I'm looking for, can you still help?
All my cakes and treats are made to order, so the likely answer is yes. Please send through your request and I will let you know as soon as possible whether I can make what you're looking for. If I can't help, I may be able to suggest someone who can.
Can you provide personalised cake toppers?
Absolutely! Please let me know if you would like a topper when booking your celebration, and I will ensure a topper us custom made to compliment the design of your cake.
Do you make fondant cakes?
My cakes are hand crafted using buttercream or chocolate ganache, or a mix of both. Fondant isn't my speciality, so whilst I don't tend to use it in my design, I will be able to work with you to create something just as beautiful and (in my opinion) more delicious, using buttercream and ganache.
Can you make my dessert table?
Of course; I'd love to! I offer a range of items for your dessert table, including blondies, brownies, cookies and iced biscuits, to name a few. They are fully customisable, so if you'd like to find out more, please feel free to contact me to discuss the options..

Katy’s confectionaries are a delight. Not only are they beautiful, they’re absolutely decadent. The cakes are sumptuous and moist with the perfect balance of flavours. My friends would say I’m fussy and Katy definitely exceeded my expectations.
