I wanted to create a cake that felt like theatre—something that didn’t just sit on a table but demanded attention. The Burn Away Birthday Cake does exactly that. Strike a flame and the top melts away, revealing a hidden photo beneath. Guests gasp, cameras flash, and suddenly the birthday has a moment of pure wonder.

It’s not only the spectacle that matters. Each cake is crafted from light sponge and smooth Swiss meringue buttercream, in flavours from lemon to pistachio. The finishing touches—classic piping, rainbow sprinkles, a name on top—add charm and wit to the magic. It’s Instagram-worthy, yet grounded in real craftsmanship.

This is for people who love surprises, for those who want their party cake to be both indulgent and unforgettable. Think milestone birthdays, surprise gatherings, or the friend who has everything—except a cake that bursts into flames to reveal their face. Freshly baked and delivered across London and Surrey, it’s a magic birthday cake UK audiences will never forget.
