Custom made cakes and cupcakes made in a home kitchen in Cape Town using only quality ingredients. Contact us to get a quote
Based in Claremont Cape Town, I bake custom cakes and cupcakes from my home kitchen. I am passionate about baking with only quality fresh ingredients such as Nomu 70% organic cocoa, Belgium chocolate, Nomu vanilla, Usana free range farm eggs and quality butter. I also strive to bake cakes that are not too sweet and celebrate natural flavours. I do not work with fondant but prefer the silky swiss meringue buttercream as my main frosting of choice, it has a light velvety texture and not too sweet creamy flavour. It is made with cooked meringue, farm butter and vanilla extract. It holds a beautiful shape. I also love working with creamcheese in my fillings and frostings. I decorate my cakes with swirls, sweets, chocolate, fresh flowers, meringues and custom made cake toppers. If you would like a fondant topper I have a trusted supplier I work with.
I love creating peoples dream cakes that suit their style and party theme. Please send me your ideas, pictures, pinterest boards and together we can create your dream cake. You are welcome to scroll through my cakes for ideas but know that each cake will be unique and custom made.
I have always felt cakes symbolise happy celebrations and good memories and I feel blessed to be able to add to someones special occasion with my cakes. I started baking as a hobby in 2013 when I decided I had to learn to make the perfect the cupcake and it just evolved from there. I have been blessed to attend workshops from well known and incredible cakery Sweet Lionheart and Crumb Cakes. Over time my hobby became something more and today I offer custom cakes and cupcakes to cater for any small to medium sized occasion.
Feel free to contact me here or on [email protected] to order your cake or cupcakes. I look forward to hearing from you.
