Two custom birthday cakes with beachy vibes in a week is making us feel all sorts of warm and fuzzies. And major FOMO. While we can't have the sun, sea and sand, we can at the very least live vicariously through cake.

The first of our beachy themed cakes was this statuesque 2-tier bespoke surfing birthday cake for Fiammetta. It had multi-textural waves made of rice paper, buttercream and sugarpaste, and lots of other cute hand-sculpted models.

But you don't need multiple tiers for maximum impact. We made a 6" beach-themed bespoke cake for Amaan based on his inspiration images sent to us.

He wanted to have a lounging figure of himself in a light linen set, palm tree, coconuts, and beach-related accessories.

We created a cake canvas of buttercream waves in tones of aqua blues and frothy white with a cookie crumble sandy beach. The sponge flavour was Cookies & Cream with crushed oreos baked into the Hero Sponge cake layers.

The finished cake with Amaan's figurine, palm tree with rice paper leaves, coconuts, flip flops, a beach towel and a sand bucket filled with cookie crumble, all sculpted out of sugarpaste looked SO FAR from the inspiration images sent to us that I was worried that there might have been a chance of the customer being disappointed.

So it was quite a relief to receive this nugget of feedback from the customer.

If you'd like to enquire about our bespoke birthday cakes or custom cakes for any occasion get in touch with us via email or WhatsApp and we'll make the cake magic happen and deliver it straight to where you need it in London or Surrey.

Love,
