Afternoon tea with Barbra



This cake was designed to celebrate a special birthday. The birthday girl had been treated to afternoon tea in London followed by a Barbra Streisand concert, so the cake was designed to bring back these special memories. The vintage tea cup replicated the one used by The Langham hotel, where the family had had afternoon tea, and was filled with handmade icing flowers. The hand painted sheet music featured some of Barbra Streisand’s most loved songs.

Summer Blooms


Another milestone birthday for a special Mum. This design in delicate hues of lemon and crisp white created a perfect summery glow. The main component of the design, handmade icing roses, were complemented by drifting blossoms and petals, and completed with a personalised gift tag. The cake itself could only be a zesty lemon sponge filled with lemoncello buttercream and zingy lemon curd - the true taste of summer!
