I’m so in love with this set. As soon as this theme was requested I knew what I wanted to design. The colour scheme was perfectly matched between edible prints and buttercream piping too ! And those prints are so crisp and clear can you believe it’s all edible !!

Good morning everyone. How are we nearly at the end of August ! This year has flown by. Wow ! 😮

Thank you

Beautiful cake from the weekend - these colours were 100% behaving themselves too.
Colourmill green, and then colourmill candy with a bit of hot pink !
Pink is such a hard colour to do as it always wants to turn peachy so was so happy with this final product for a lovely little girl turning 7
More wicked themed cakes please ! X

Hi everyone.
I’m getting a lot of enquiries for the next few months - please remember it’s first come first served - you only secure a slot with a PAID 50% deposit or £25 save the date - please don’t be disappointed if you don’t reply or pay for your slot then it’s given to someone else.
Also Balances - they are due 4 days before your collection. Please keep to this as it makes everything run smoothly.
Wedding orders - your balance is due 4 weeks before your delivery.
If you have any problems or issues please communicate with me, and we can work things over.
Thank you
