I originally set up the business in 2017, with a short hiatus in between, and relaunched and rebranded in January 2020. I needed a work from home opportunity due to disability, and a few friends told me I should start selling my cakes, so I did and the business has gone from strength to strength. My business is based in Totton and working alongside me is my husband Darrel who is in charge of branding and design, and my son who assists me in the kitchen and at events. We love making weird and wonderful celebration cakes, cupcakes and chocolate gi s, no request is too unusual and I think that’s what makes us a little bit di erent! We cater for all budgets and dietary requirements, including gluten free, vegan and sugar free cakes and work closely with our customers to make every order personal and as close to their request as we can get it! We can o en be found selling bakes and treats at festivals, community sales and wedding events, and can be booked to attend these events. Charity work is really important to us; we regularly donate to local small charities including Parklife Community Café and Sophie’s Legacy. In addition to our cakes, we also provide catering services including lunch boxes for children’s parties, and bu ets for baby showers, christenings and small weddings of up to 50 guests. All of our orders come boxed and wrapped with some personal touches, we can supply anything from individual favour boxes to acrylic cake display stands!
