Cake details

What’s inside

Ingredients, allergens and a note from the chef.

Two layers of fluffy freshly baked sponge in your chosen flavour, filled and finished with vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream, then topped with a custom caricature portrait of you or someone you love. The artwork is professionally created from your photos, printed on icing and framed with piping for a polished finish.

This custom portrait is created by an illustrator using your photos and can feature you, your partner, your child, a colleague or anyone who deserves the spotlight. It is the perfect custom cake for birthdays, anniversaries, retirement parties, office celebrations and anyone with enough humour to enjoy seeing themselves on dessert.

Please note, the caricature is limited to one person only. Get in touch if you would like a custom quote for additional characters or pets.

From the Chef

I do not mean to be rude, but I find photo cakes naff. Many others disagree, clearly, but I wanted to make a cake that puts someone centre stage without making the room quietly wince.

The answer is caricature: playful, flattering and full of character. This cake is custom because the portrait is illustrated from your reference photos, not simply printed as supplied.

The result is personal without being lazy, funny without being cheap, and still very much cake rather than office printer incident.
