Ladies Birthday Cakes

Dad and daughter birthday cakes

Rebecca’s Mum (and Rob’s wife!) ordered these 2 12″ cakes for a joint birthday party. Rebecca rears award winning cows, and her Mum brought us photos of the cow and calf to put on the cake. They are made from cutting out sugar paste and painting over the top. We even made their tags and rosettes to match the photos! Rob’s cake has a 2D rugby ball on sporting the logo of Rebecca’s work place. The logo is made from sugar paste too! Joint birthday cakes can be done as one massive cake or 2 smaller ones – come and see us for more ideas

Lesley’s Mulberry bag

This shaped Mulberry bag cake is made from a medium chocolate sponge which would feed roughly 30 people – it can be made larger or smaller and in a choice of flavours. We’ve made quite a few handbags here at the shop – always a pleasure, we love our handbags! Please bring us a photo of a handbag when you order your cake as there are loads of different types and patterns and it can really affect your quote

Highland cow cake

This adorable highland cow cake is a 6″ lemon cake which I’m taking to a wedding tomorow! It’s the brides birthday and this is her special birthday cake with a little edible highland cow model on top! 

Jan’s Caravan Cake

Jan loves nothing more than getting away from it all in her caravan! Her work friends brought us a photo of her caravan and we made it out of vanilla sponge. This is a medium sponge which will feed 30 but there is a larger size available if you like. This caravan cake is sponge but can also be made from chocolate or fruit cake. All the things on the board are edible. It was left to me what to make on the board – so I made trees and shrubs, a little camp fire (and a pan with sausages and an egg!) and a few animals (see if you can spot the bunny, bird, squirrel, bees and ladybirds!)

Facebook Cake

This is a first – a facebook cake! Jonathan asked for the cake for his fiance, whom he chatted up with the line ‘I’ve got a facebook’. So with that knowledge, and the order of a 6″ cake, he left me to it! Some of this is cut out of sugar paste, but the most of it is drawn on with edible pens. There’s loads of little details on it – even a nod to our facebook page in the bottom left hand corner! We specialise in the more inventive cakes… We’ve got creative coming out of our pores! If you have an idea no matter how random, just ask us for a design and We’ll show you what we can do for you.

Cool music cakes

There’s loads of ways to show you love music on your birthday cake so here’s a few ideas – to the right is an acoustic guitar model, to the left is a pair of beats headphones, and underneath is a 2D logo of DJ Dead Mau5. All of these models are made from sugar paste! If you’d like anything made on to your cake – just ask and we can think of a way to do it for you.

Nurse cake

We’ve made quite a few nurses recently, so I thought I would post up a photo of one! This lady is a district nurse – but we’ve made midwives, doctors and all the different types of nurses. If you’d like a nurse or any kind of professional in uniform – bring us a photo. (We only make toppers for our own cakes)

Truro train (shaped cake)

Most of the time when we get asked to make trains or cars we make a flat cake and make models for the top. It’s really nice to get asked to make a shaped cake version – you can fit a lot of detail onto them (and a face if we’re asked!) but they are a lot more work! If you’d like a specific train like Lizzi – photos are appreciated, but if not we can google it. Just make a note of the name of the train for us if you can.

Chocolate parcel cake and cupcakes!

Amber’s 21st birthday cake was a 6″ parcel cake with 21 matching cupcakes for her friends! If you’d like a smaller cake with matching cupcakes rather than a big cake by itself – here is a nice way to do it. Speak to us and we can design cupcakes to match your cake and show you all the ways to do it

Flag cakes

We sometimes get asked to make the cakes into flags – We’ve done loads of different types but here is a rectangular cake as a German flag and a square cake as a Union Jack. We can add a message onto the board in front, in whatever language you like!
