Whether it's vanilla or chocolate sponge you're after, I am confident you'll love the taste and texture of my sponge recipe. Trialled and tested to perfection, my sponge can come in any flavour or colour like.

This will either be buttercream or chocolate ganache (milk, dark or white) depending on the flavours, colours and theme to be achieved.

Generally, buttercream is a popular filling to have on a cake, but if covering the cake with fondant, then a chocolate ganache would typically be used due to it setting more firmly.

You can also have other filling added to the cake too, like jam, nutella or even biscoff. Whatever you fancy!

As a cake artist, the decorating is the really fun part. The decorations can be as basic as a chocolate drip around the edges of the cake, or fully loaded with lots of your favourite chocolates and sweets. It can depend entirely on your theme, colours and flavours, and is ultimately up to you.

However, no cake is ever the same, since it's the personal touches in the decorations that make a cake unique. You may have an idea or a picture of what you are after, but it is important to remember that you can't make the same cake twice.

Picture: Cake was covered with a white chocolate ganache filling since the client did not like buttercream. Decorations included a fault line containing love hearts, a drip, lollipops inserted in to the cake on top, and some of the birthday girl's favourite sweets (flumps, bubblegum bottle etc)

Toppers are the final touch of any cake. Personalised with a name, age and the type of celebration (birthday, anniversary etc) the topper is as important as any other part of the cake.

I am happy to provide a cake topper with your cake to match, saving you sourcing it elsewhere.
