CAKE DECORATING IS AN ART AND A SKILL, WHICH IS ALL DONE BY HAND, THERE ARE NO MACHINES TO PIPE A MESSAGE, SHELL OR SCROLL A CAKE, WE HAVE SOME OF LONDON'S TOP CAKE DECORATORS WORKING WITH US, EACH HAVE THEIR OWN TECHNIQUE AND AT TIMES THIS CAN RESULT IN SOME VARIATIONS IN THE FINISHED CAKE, PLEASE REMEMBER NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES THE SAME CAKE IS MADE.
"IT WILL BE UNIQUE"
ONCE WE TAKE YOUR DEPOSIT YOUR MONEY IS NON-REFUNDABLE, IF YOU DO CANCEL THIS WILL SAVE YOU HAVING TO PAY ANY OUTSTANDING MONEY OWED ON COMPLETED CAKES.
ALL OUR CAKES OUR BAKED FROM SCRATCH, WE DO NOT USE ANY BAKERY PREMIXES, ALL OUR RECIPES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED BY US IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR CUSTOMERS, OVER A NUMBER OF YEARS.
(we don't buy from or sell to Marks & Spencer, Tesco, Sainsbury's or your Local Cake Shop, our cakes will look and taste different from theirs)
WE HAVE A DIFFERENT RECIPE FOR EACH OF THE CAKES WE BAKE, IT'S NOT JUST A CASE OF ADD COCOA POWDER TO THE MADEIRA TO MAKE CHOCOLATE, OR ADD A HANDFUL OF DRIED FRUIT TO THE MADEIRA TO MAKE THE LIGHT FRUIT, THIS DOES MEAN THAT OUR MADEIRA IS LIKELY TO HAVE A DIFFERENT TEXTURE / APPEARANCE TO OUR COCONUT MADEIRA ETC.
WE NOW BAKE ALL OUR CAKES WITH FREE RANGE EGGS (except the egg free), WE DO NOT ADD ALCOHOL TO OUR CAKES AND USE ONLY VEGETABLE MARGARINE AND SHORTENING
WE AIM TO BAKE OUR RICH FRUIT CAKES IN ADVANCE TO GIVE THEM TIME TO MATURE AND DEVELOP A FULLER FLAVOUR, ALL OUR OTHER CAKES ARE GENERALLY BAKED THE WEEK THEY ARE REQUIRED.
WE BAKE ALL OUR OWN CAKES AND HAVE ONE OF THE LARGEST SELECTION OF TINS AVAILABLE, IN SQUARE WE CAN BAKE FROM A 4 INCH RIGHT UP TO 24 INCH, IN ALL THE EVEN SIZES AND MOST OF THE ODD ONES AS WELL.
EVEN OUR 24 INCH SQUARE CAKES ARE COVERED IN ONE PIECE OF SUGARPASTE, FOR A JOIN FREE FINISH.
WE ALSO WHERE POSSIBLE BAKE ALL OUR STANDARD SHAPE CAKES IN A TIN, TO THE SHAPE REQUIRED, THIS RESULTS IN A MUCH BETTER FINISH AND SHAPE TO THE CAKE.
MOST OF OUR NOVELTY CAKES ARE HAND CARVED FROM LARGE MADEIRA SLABS, USING AS FEW PIECES AS POSSIBLE, TO CREATE THE FINISHED SHAPE BEFORE BEING FILLED WITH RASPBERRY JAM AND VANILLA CREAM.
NEARLY ALL OUR MODELS ON OUR CAKES ARE HANDMADE FROM SUGARPASTE BY US, THE SAME APPLIES FOR THE SUGAR FLOWERS ON OUR WEDDING CAKES.
IT IS WORTH REMEMBERING THAT MOST OF THE DECORATION'S ON OUR CAKES, ARE THERE FOR THE VISUAL EFFECT AND YOU ARE UNLIKELY TO BE ABLE TO KEEP THEM ONCE YOU CUT THE CAKE, THIS INCLUDES PICTURES.
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE COLOURS ON THIS WEBSITE MIGHT BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT TO WHAT YOU GET, WE DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MAKE SURE THE COLOURS LOOK CORRECT BUT THIS WILL DEPEND ON YOUR MONITOR AS WELL.
WHEN YOU PLACE AN ORDER WITH US YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO LEAVE A DEPOSIT, YOU WILL BE GIVEN EITHER A COPY OF YOUR ORDER (if placed in the shop) OR AN ORDER NUMBER, YOU WILL NEED THIS TO COLLECT YOUR CAKE. PLEASE REMEMBER THAT YOUR REFERENCE NUMBER IS YOUR PROOF THAT YOU HAVE PLACED AN ORDER, A CREDIT CARD RECEIPT DOES NOT PROVE ANYTHING OTHER THAN YOU HAVE PAID US MONEY.
CAKES WILL REQUIRE YOU TO TRANSPORT THEM LEVEL ON A FLAT SURFACE,
i.e. car boot or floor NOT a car seat or lap.
WE ARE UNABLE AND DON'T ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR CAKES ONCE THEY LEAVE THE SHOP.
WE DO NOT TAKE ORDERS OVER THE INTERNET AS WE LIKE TO TALK THROUGH YOUR ORDER WITH YOU, THIS IS OUR WAY OF MAKING SURE YOU GET THE CAKE YOU ARE AFTER.
