Brought up making cakes with my Mum and Nan, with Mum always making fantastic cakes for every single birthday I decided I would have a go myself.

Moving to Middleham, North Yorkshire in March 2008 I made a big Racing Colours Cake for Kate Walton Racing at the Middleham Stables Open Day Event. The cake went down a treat with visitors to the yard and this cake lead to another, then another...

Since, I've done all kinds of Novelty Cakes, Cupcakes and Wedding Cakes. Whatever my customers have asked for, I've designed and made with much success.

A Celebration Cake is such a special thing, which is why I feel it is important to discuss each customer's cake so I can make exactly what they want.

I take lots of care and meticulous attention to detail to make sure each cake is as good as it possibly can be. From the sponge underneath to the finishing touches on top, it has to be perfect.

An NVQ Level 2 in Professional Cookery, experience in Professional Kitchens, working with trained Pastry Chefs and College Cake Decorating Courses have helped me to define and improve both my baking and presentation skills. An NVQ Level 3 in Pastry and Confectionary is the next step.
