How far in advance should we book a wedding cake maker?

Most cake designers recommend booking between 6 and 12 months in advance, particularly for peak season weddings between May and September. Many offer tasting sessions as part of the booking process, usually arranged a few months before your wedding to finalise flavours and design details.

Do we have to have a traditional tiered wedding cake?

Absolutely not. Many modern couples opt for alternatives including single-tier celebration cakes, dessert tables, doughnut towers, macaron walls, or a combination of smaller cakes. A good cake maker will guide you through all the options and help you find something that suits your aesthetic.

How do we work out how many portions we need?

A good starting point is one portion per guest. Your cake maker will help you work out the right number of tiers and portion sizes based on your guest count. If you're planning a dessert table with other sweet treats, you may need fewer cake portions overall.

Can wedding cakes accommodate dietary requirements?

Yes — most modern cake makers are experienced at catering for dietary requirements including gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, and nut-free options. Always be upfront about your guests' requirements early in the process so your cake maker can advise on what's possible.

Do cake makers deliver and set up on the day?

Most do. Delivery to your venue and basic setup is typically included in the price, but additional setup, cake stands, and decorative extras are sometimes charged separately. Always confirm delivery timing with both your cake maker and venue coordinator well in advance.

Meet Amber

Hi, I’m a chef-turned-baker who makes wedding cakes and cupcakes that taste as unforgettable as they look. After training as a chef and baking for friends and family for over twelve years, I now create bespoke wedding cakes from my own kitchen, each one designed to reflect the couple it is made for.

I believe every couple deserves a cake that feels personal. My work ranges from playful 3D sculptures to elegant five-tier centrepieces. Nothing is off limits. I take pride in turning ideas into beautiful, edible works of art that your guests will remember for years.

I love getting to know the couples I work with. Our process is simple and fun:

Consultation - We meet to talk about your wedding, your style and memorable details you might want to include.

Tasting - You try a selection of cake flavours from my 20-plus menu so you can choose your favourites.

Digital sketch - While you taste, I’ll sketch your cake idea digitally so you leave with a visual of what your cake will look like.

Confirmation - I finalise the design, confirm timings and any dietary requirements, and prepare your bespoke cake for the big day.

I keep the flavour list fresh and adventurous. Options include Cherry and Almond, Honey and Pistachio, classic Lemon sponge, and many more. I cater for dietary needs including dairy-free and gluten-free options, and I update flavours regularly so there is always something new to try.

I work from my home kitchen and take commissions by appointment. For the best availability please book early. Consultations include tasting and a sketch so you can see your cake before it is baked.
