We strive to produce a celebration cake, no matter what the occasion, that you, and your friends, will talk about for years to come and make your special occasion that little bit more special.

About Us

Baking delicious cakes since 1719

Neil trained in his Father’s bakeries working alongside his Grandfather. His Mum and Dad met at bakery college and his Mum’s Father also had bakeries, in fact the baking ‘gene’ can be traced back approx. 300 years in the family, and this legacy continues with Neil’s daughter now working along side her Dad.

All our cakes are baked and decorated on the premises, we use only the freshest of ingredients, we use only vegetarian products, we do not use any preservatives in any of our products and do not knowingly use genetically modified ingredients. All the cakes are made to order specifically designed to the customers requirements.

We do however from time to time have special offers for example Mother’s Day cakes and Valentines cakes which you can look out for on Facebook.  At Christmas time we have an array of products for sale including rich fruit Christmas cakes, rum truffles and of course our famous mince pies which are a firm favourite amongst our customers.

Please feel free to visit our studio in Marple at any time to discuss your dream cake.
