Welcome!

From the beautiful (and sometimes unexpected!) journey of creating luxury wedding cakes, to the lessons I’ve learned along the way, there’s plenty to discover here. You’ll find a little more about my approach to sustainable cake design, the thinking behind innovations such as BLOOMbase™, and honest reflections on what it’s really like running and growing a creative business.

The Made With Flower BLOOMbase™ is the world’s first flowering cake tier. A plastic-free alternative to traditional polystyrene cake dummies, designed for more sustainable wedding cakes and modern celebrations. After the event, it biodegrades and grows into wildflowers creating a stunning floral memory for your clients and a meaningful wedding memento that lives on in their garden.

I’ll also take you behind the scenes of some of the experiences that have shaped my journey — from discovering how changing the way I show up can transform my business, to the excitement of Cake International and my experience at The Great Malvern Cake Off Theatre. These opportunities have given me the chance to step outside my usual creative space, meet fellow cake makers and creatives, share ideas, and experience the wonderful world of cake from a different perspective.

So, whether you’re planning your own celebration, curious about what goes on behind the scenes, interested in more sustainable cake design, or simply love beautiful cakes and the stories behind them, have a browse and make yourself at home.
