Yes, it's cake.

10/06/2026

Ok so we’re all aware that whilst I can make pretty cakes, they’re just not my thing 🙈
So once I got the display piece (decorated at the Hillingdon Chamber of Commerce expo on Friday) back home, I decided to make it more me.
The corset was too….. nice, and I didn’t want to destroy it, but to add to it.
Then I had a moment.

I LOVE a juxtaposition piece, showing stark contrasts between two opposing styles.

The bright and open flowers on the skirt (showing proof of being cared for) are in full bloom, acting as a distraction from the overgrowth and decay of the corset, which has been neglected and abandoned.
Beauty drawing attention away from what is deemed as ugly.

But there’s a glimmer of what was once beautiful on the corset, with the gold embellishments still shining bright from underneath.
You can see once the vines are cleared, the moss is removed and the corset cleaned, that beauty which was always underneath it all, will be restored.

The body, which was damaged a little on the journey home, has each blemish and mark highlighted with gold.
The scars will always be there.
There’s no hiding them.
So emphasising those with something as valuable as gold, shows they’re not to be hidden, but showcased with pride.
Proof of a journey made, and survived.

I think we can all relate in one way or another.
Our lives are a journey. We get bumped and bruised along the way. We neglect parts of ourselves which should have always been nurtured. We put a lot into keeping the focus on the things we want people to see, in the hopes they ignore the things we don’t.
Maybe one day what was allowed to decay will be restored, and the beauty that is you will be bright and shining.
Because we all deserve to love every part of us, no matter what it’s been through, or still going through. ❤️

Anyway! That’s enough of that.
Look at the pretty cake!

Quite often, I’m asked “what’s your favourite cake you’ve made?”, and honestly, that’s such a difficult question!

When you love your job as much as I do, there’s so many favourites, and they all have their reasons.
Cthulhu is on the list, as it was my first gold at cake international. At the time, one of my idols (now my friend), said it was their favourite, and I was so taken aback!
Lloyd the Llove Llama is there too. He’s so full of character and charm, and every new detail I added, had me fall in love with him.
Pikachu was my first structure supported only by just one point at the toe, so he was an achievement I’d unlocked on my structure journey.

There’s many more, but these are definitely my top three.

I’d love to see your most favourite cakes you’ve made, and your reasons why.
Have you also got more than one? Let me see them all!
And tag your cake pages so we can all follow!

About yesterday at the Hillingdon Chamber of Commerce business expo!

In the words of Harvey Price “what a day”

A huge thank you to everyone who came to our stand. We took 500 business cards, and we’ve come home with about 20!
I prepped over 500 samples of cakes, brownies, cinnamon rolls and focaccia, and came home with NONE!
We made so many connections, spoke to so many people, and had an audience the whole time watching me finish my display piece live all day, chatting to me, and coming back again and again to see the process and progression.
We had friends come to support us, strangers cheering us on, and I don’t think I stopped smiling and talking the whole time!
Everyone was just AMAZING!

SOMEHOW, despite being shockingly unorganised, and having a stand I threw together in 10 minutes from a hoop I bought on Vinted for £15, the flowers from my studio walls which wouldn’t stay in place on the hoop, and two net curtains I’ve had for years still in their packages, we won the most creative and engaged stand!
🤯
Even the cake I was working on was dreadfully finished 😂🙈
Good thing there were no cake judges!
Lloyd the Llove Llama came with us, and I’m surprised he made it back home, as so many people wanted to steal him! He was the real star of the day!

Of course I acted a prat when my name was called for best stand and immediately had cameras in my face 😂🙈
It wouldn’t be me if I didn’t.
I’m nervously waiting for the video to be posted to socials so I can see just how stupid I was 😂🙈 (sorry Kai 😬 embarrassing mum alert)

The Mayor of Hillingdon, Reeta Chamdal, spent so much time talking to us, and she’s honestly one of the nicest, kindest, and just utterly beautiful people I’ve met!
Thank you so much for your kindness, laughter and genuine conversation. It was like talking to a friend I’d known my whole life. ❤️

We are absolutely exhausted today, so whilst I would usually be working in the studio, I’ve decided to have an admin day, and not move from the sofa, which has now fused to me, and we are one. I can’t move, even if I wanted to.

If anyone managed to get any pictures or videos, please tag us in them, or send them our way so we can share them. I didn’t stop all day, so I only have these few.
We’d also appreciate a review if you tried any of our samples.

Thank you again, and you’re all WONDERFUL people 🥰🥰🥰
Same time again next year! We’ve got a title to defend now! 💪🏻🏆

Chloe and Kai ❤️

I’m absolutely LOVING sage green cakes at the moment, like this tall two tier cake I delivered Sunday for Ruben and Alex’s confirmation, comprised of my award winning chocolate fudge cake on the bottom tier, and vanilla cake on the top.

Paired with artificial eucalyptus and dried flowers, it has such a nature vibe, perfect for spring/summer.

A big thank you to Paula, and I hope everyone had a fantastic day Sunday. The food smelled absolutely delicious, and the curious children gathered around me as I set up were absolutely adorable! Such polite and helpful little angels!
Hopefully everyone survived the heat!

I absolutely LOVE making wedding cakes which are completely different from traditional cakes.
Yesterday, I got to do just that.

I delivered this three tier, all vegan, Pokémon and rainbow themed wedding cake to Dorney Court: Weddings & Events in Windsor yesterday morning, and what a beautiful venue it was!
I set up the cake in the gorgeous Windsor countryside, whilst being serenaded by birdsong and horses.
Stunning.

And what’s more, I received a fantastic email from the happy couple today, thanking me for my efforts. 🥰

Congratulations Laura and Tres!

22/05/2026

Something feel-good for your Friday!

Turn the music up loud, dance like no one is watching, and remember, we’re here for a good time, not a long time.
❤️

“How much? I can get it cheaper in the supermarket”

Well… yes! Look at the difference! 😳

Handmade costs more because you get so much more!

04/05/2026

We’re now closed until the 15th!

Thank you to everyone for collecting your orders early this week. You’re all absolute stars!

I’ll be back next week, but whilst I’m away, Kai will be manning the fort.

I’m off to mess about in the desert for a bit with the D’licious Magazine team!
See yaaaa!!!!

Yesterday, I had the absolute pleasure of delivering this dessert table to Alicia and Josh for their wedding day, at the gorgeous Southdowns Manor.

The happy couple asked for a floral cake centrepiece, with macarons, cupcakes and cookies, and gave me a little creative control.

The macaron towers have been finished with wafer paper lace and small sugar roses.
The cupcakes were made to match the brides dresses, in both colour and texture.
The cookies were finished with blush pink details on a white lustre background.
And the wedding cake, comprised of my award winning chocolate fudge cake in the bottom tier, Biscoff cake in the middle tier, and Oreo cake in the top tier, was adorned with intricate handmade sugar flowers, wafer paper lace, and delicate sugar leaves.

Kai lovingly made all the tiny paper wish stars in the heart jars, and the table was decorated with jars of sweets and meringues.

This table was an absolute labour of love, and I can’t wait to see the official photos from the big day!
Congratulations Alicia and Josh!

And a huge thank you to Debbie from Little Barn Cakes, who helped me to deliver and set up. I honestly appreciate everything you did 🥰
As always, everything used is from Vanilla Valley

Expectation vs reality 😂

Content warning: swearing, adult humour, mild violence.

On Monday, the absolutely bonkers Danielle Crich - The Cussing Caker came over for a live cake-off for her group The Cussing Caker.

Unadulterated chaos ensued!
I put together this best bits video to save everyone the torture of watching THIS for over 2 hours. 🫠
Enjoy.
(Please note, these cakes were not for public consumption)

A massive well done to Kai for putting up with us both the whole time. 🙈
Thank you to Vanilla Valley for not firing us both immediately, and thank you to Sweet Success Sugarcraft for supplying us with the cakes.
Absolute STARS!!!!

Another charity donation, this time a little smaller than the bunny 😂

Northwood Area Women’s Club held a fundraiser yesterday for Michael Sobell Hospice, and the lovely Jean who organises it all asked if I could provide some cake slices to sell for dessert after their meal.

Absolutely!

There was one or two gluten free requests, so I thought I’d make all the cakes without gluten and give those ladies a bit more choice.
And just incase anyone fancied something to take home, a batch of my all butter shortbread. 🥰

I’d like to send our love and well wishes to Jean, who was unfortunately badly injured earlier this week, and was unable to collect the order.
I hope your recovery goes smoothly, and you’re back up and feeling better soon. ###
I look forward to the update to see how much we raised!

Pictured is three loaf cakes, sliced and individually packaged. There’s chocolate cake, lemon drizzle, classic Victoria sponge, and shortbread fingers.

“Why didn’t you just use a print?”

Because I wanted to push myself out of my comfort zone, and give painting a go.

As a friend said, cake makers often find themselves saying “I can make a cake, but I’m rubbish at art”.

Well I failed my GCSE art. Catastrophically.
Not only because I was rubbish, but also because I couldn’t explain my piece in writing.
I was restricted to materials, size, subjects, and techniques, so when it came to writing about my art, I couldn’t find the words.

Creative freedom provides opportunities to grow, learn and push ourselves to try things we believed we couldn’t do, and in turn, it keeps us in love with this job.

Push yourself a little further, you may just find you’re really good at something! 🥰

Wishing you all the very happiest of Easters!

With love from me, Kai, and Barry the bunny!

Now where’s that chocolate? 👀

When the lovely Kate Hoyle asked me to make a cake for both her birthday, and to celebrate 8 years of her business, I knew it had to be special.

I was given a brief of Monet vibes, birds and feathers to represent freedom, the colour scheme of her business, and to include beautiful Noodles the Chow Chow, who sadly passed away last year.

I started with so many ideas, and at the very last minute, decided to do something I’ve never done, and paint.

Everything on the cake has been fully free hand painted with cocoa butter and Rainbow Dust Colours from Vanilla Valley, and took a total of 13 hours.
I made myself comfortable in the studio, surrounded myself with everything I needed, and fully relaxed into it.
I can’t say it was easy, but I had a vision, and was determined to see it through.
I needed to break free from the doubts I had about the final result, and just go for it.
I’m so glad I did. ☺️

Thank you for trusting me with your cake, Kate, and I truly hope you have the most wonderful birthday ❤️
Here’s to another 8 years of setting people free from the things that hold them back.

🎉THE BIG REVEAL!!!!🎉
Please read to the end!

Some of you guessed correctly, but some of your guesses were WILD! 😂
A swimming cap?! What?! 😂😂

Here is Barry the Bunny!!!! (Named by my TikTok live audience)

He was delivered this morning to Bumblebee children’s ward of Hillingdon hospital, for the children, families, and staff who may be unable to celebrate Easter at home this year.
Being in hospital is absolutely rubbish, but I just know this has brought some joy and smiles to everyone on the ward.
We had a visit planned from the Easter Bunny himself, but unfortunately, our mascot was taken ill earlier this week and has been admitted to another ward of the hospital 😞 (sending our love to Becky ❤️)

Because of that, there was a mad scramble yesterday to try and get this cake where it needed to be this morning, and I can proudly say that a solid team effort has saved the day!

Barry is made from chocolate cake, filled with chocolate buttercream, and milk chocolate spread. Obviously. It’s Easter. It HAD to be chocolate!
He’s covered in white Callebaut chocolate ganache, and Sweet Success Sugarcraft modelling chocolate, before being coloured with Rainbow Dust Colours.
On the board is gluten free vanilla and chocolate nest cupcakes, and vegan lemon daffodil cupcakes.
The cute little ‘bunny trail’ sign from Sweet Stamp - Amy Cakes finished it perfectly 🥰

A massive thank you to The Purry Godmother for helping with delivery! You’re an absolute STAR!!!

As always, the amazing Vanilla Valley is where I get all my supplies. (Link in bio for discount if you’re a cake maker in the UK)

❤️A little but important side note;

Whilst we choose to make these cakes, and donate them to various causes and charities, it is becoming increasingly difficult to fund them.
Supplies are expensive, and we can only make cakes like this for as long as we can afford to.
So, to try and help a little, I’ve set up a donations page.
All donations go directly and solely to cakes for charities, hospitals, and to feeding the homeless.
We strongly believe in doing what we can to make the world a little bit better, and we do it via the medium of cake.
There’s a link in the comments if you’d like to help fund cakes like these, or if you’d just like to show your appreciation for what we do. Any donations, shares of this post, and comments to boost it are greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Xx

Pretty Easter vibes 🥰

Easter and pastels go hand in hand, so when I designed this sheet cake, I knew exactly which colour palette to choose, and Colour Mill had every shade.

Sage was used to cover this 7 layer chocolate, Biscoff and mini egg beauty.
The ruffles had a drop or two of lemon, the piped shells were baby pink, and I added a little aubergine to the leftover pink buttercream to make a pastel lilac.

And how cute are those Stamp n Cut mini floral eggs from Sweet Stamp - Amy Cakes!

This cake wasn’t quite finished without some sprinkles, so I used some PME Cake Decorating daisy cake charms leftover from Mother’s Day.
🌸

We won’t mention the mortgage I had to take out to buy the mini eggs 🫠
(Side note. I won’t tell anyone if I ever win the lottery… but there will be signs. I’ll be walking around with pockets full of mini eggs)

Find everything you need at Vanilla Valley, including all the piping tips, and the rectangle Masonite board.
