Absolutely Loved Our Wedding Cake!!

I've always wanted the experience of visiting a cake maker and tasting the different flavours like you see in the movies and Helen made that happens for us. We booked a tasting consultation at her home and was able to try all her available flavours and it was just what I wanted. Our wedding cake was absolutely perfect and tasted even better. We even had the bridal party visiting us after the wedding to collect more cake to bring home. We ended up having to change our venue and Helen was very accommodating. Delivery was on time and our cake looked beautiful all set up on its table. Highly recommend 10/10.

Great Gluten and Dairy Free Cakes

From start to finish Helen has been a pleasure to work with. She invited us to her house, where we tried so many delicious cakes in her beautiful kitchen. We took them home and ate for days!
She gave us so many options for gluten and dairy free versions which was perfect. She also gave us the idea of a cupcake tower, instead of a traditional wedding cake, which worked amazingly well. No cake was wasted, as guests could easily eat the cupcakes the next day. We loved salted caramel, carrot cake, lemon and black forest gateau, but Helen makes all the flavors well! She delivered the cake on time, the morning of the wedding, and it was so easy for us knowing everything was already in place.

Best cakery in the area!

We discovered Helen’s Cakery through her impressive website and Instagram page, showcasing her exquisite cake designs. After reaching out, Helen promptly responded and kindly invited us to her home for a cake tasting.

From the moment we met Helen, she was incredibly welcoming and friendly. She invited us into her home and had prepared a delightful selection of cake flavors for us to sample. We had pre-selected the flavors we were interested in, and after tasting them, we chose our top three favorites. Helen’s artistic background was evident as she sketched a design for our wedding cake, perfectly incorporating inspiration photos we provided.

Throughout the planning process, communication with Helen via WhatsApp was smooth and efficient. We needed to adjust some flavors due to guest allergies, and Helen handled these changes seamlessly. On our wedding day, Helen delivered the cake directly to our venue and set it up beautifully, integrating some of our floral arrangements into the final design.

In our opinion, Helen’s cakes are the best in the area. After considering various local vendors, we found that others couldn’t match Helen’s quality, or flexibility with flavours.

Overall, we were thrilled with our wedding cake and highly recommend Helen’s Cakery!

Absolutely fantastic

It was an incredible experience from first message to follow up one after the wedding. She was kind and patient with our disabled daughter at the cake tasting. The final cake was incredible we chose oreo&chocolate. The cake was stunning all the intricate details were incredible. We had sugar flowers. The woman went above and beyond. We couldn’t be happier. Our guests loved it.

Superb, stress free & tasty!

This was a last minute request for a wedding cake for an extra celebration. I asked Helen only 1 week before the event! She very kindly agreed to squeeze us into her busy schedule & made everything so easy. Between us we decided upon a design. She was extremely helpful. She came up with the best filling ever! Chocolate sponge with vanilla & chocolate chip buttercream! One week later we picked up the beautifully boxed up cake. It looked absolutely amazing & tasted delicious! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Helen & would definitely use her services again!

Helen is a Star!

Helen supplied a beautiful and delicious anniversary cake! The ordering process was super easy and stressful free (despite time zone difference). I shared a couple of photos of designs I liked and Helen brought those ideas to life.
We picked Chocolate orange cake which went down so well. Absolutely everyone had cakes and some of us had seconds!

We were absolutely blown away by the amazing wedding cake Helen created for us. From start to finish, the entire process was effortless thanks to her professionalism and attention to detail.

Helen really took the time to understand our vision, and she completely nailed what we were after—both in design and flavor.

The cake was not only stunning to look at, but it also tasted absolutely incredible! We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Helen to anyone looking for a beautiful, tasty wedding cake!

Thank you, Helen, for helping to make our day so special!

Absolutely incredible cakes!!

Our family has used Helen a few times for cakes now so I knew I needed them for our wedding day. We had cupcakes with a cutting tier and it was all absolutely amazing. Special shout out to the white chocolate and raspberry flavour, amazing! We will definitely be using Helen for future events!!

If you have a vision, Helen will do her best to make it happen!

We came across Helen's Cakery whilst looking for someone to make our wedding cake and we are so thankful we found Helen!
Unlike others we spoke to Helen took the time to fully understand our vision for our wedding cake.
Others gave quotes based on party size and would only provide smaller cakes whereas Helen listened to us and understood we wanted a "showstopper".
She invited us for a tasting, of our selective flavours, and made us feel welcome.
On our wedding day, all of our guests commented on how amazing the cake looked, since the wedding everyone has had multiple servings of cake.
From start to finish Helen has been fantastic, we will definitely be ordering cakes from Helen in the future.
