Creating Together, From First Chat to Final Slice

 The most common comment I hear as a cake maker is, ‘I hope the cake tastes as good as it looks’ My response – “ I always aim to create cakes that are just as delicious as they are beautiful. While the design is crafted to wow at first sight, the real magic happens when you take that first bite. I hope your cake tastes every bit as amazing as it looks – because for me, flavour is just as important as the finish.

The cakes are amazing, she listens to every detail you ask for. She also goes the extra mile for you. Oh and the cake tastes amazing & so light. I will be ordering again 100%


I ordered 2 cakes from Sarah for my wife's 40th birthday. They both tasted amazing and looked exactly the way that I wanted. My wife herself is a former professional cake maker with very high standards and she too was very impressed and loved the cakes. We will recommend Cakes by party entertainments


Just want to say a massive thank you for my beautiful baby shower cake and cupcakes my mum had ordered through yourself! They was an absolute hit... and the chocolate, WOW! Could smell this coming through the cake before even cutting! Saved some for home and for a few family members who couldn't attend and my brother Actually said "this is the best cake l've ever had!!!" So thank you again! Will 100% be using your services again.

Your questions answered

Common questions

Yes! We can work with you to design a cake around you, it’s the joy of bespoke cakes.

We can work with either, the finish is down to your personal preference.

Collection of cakes is from CO2 however big stacked cakes would require delivery and set up, this is priced accordingly. 

We work with artificial flowers only, occasionally, we use sugar flowers however our preference is always artificial, unfortunately we do not offer to put fresh flowers on cakes. 

Layers are the number of sponges inside a single cake, I almost always use 3 layers of sponge in each cake. Tiers are the number of cakes stacked on top of each other.
