Cakes

Cat Sheppard has been making spectacular wedding and celebration cakes since 2008. Each one is tailored for your individual event and we can take inspiration from the colours, flowers, dresses and themes for the day. Cakes can be made in any flavour you desire, but we can also help you decide by sending you options. Ideally we like to meet our clients prior to booking to go over the details and do a tasting. So that we can ensure we can commit the necessary time to create your masterpiece, we ask that wedding cakes be ordered at least two months in advance, and birthday or christening cakes at least a couple of weeks before the big day. 

Here’s a selection of our favourite flavours:

  • Chocolate mud cake with salted caramel icing
  • Delicate lavender and lemon cake with white chocolate icing
  • Carrot cake with orange (flavour not colour!) icing
  • Espresso and walnut cake with mocha or salted caramel icing
  • Chocolate biscuit cake with Cantuccini biscuits and drunken cherries
  • Lemon & thyme drizzle cake with limoncello icing
  • Traditional and very moist fruit cake with marzipan
  • Gin and tonic cake with lime and cucumber icing

Our price list and terms & conditions can be found below:

Please note that wedding cake orders must be placed at least 2 months ahead of the delivery date and birthday cakes at least 2 weeks in advance.

 

Here is a selection of comments from our very happy clients...

“ I can’t thank you enough for our amazing wedding cake – it was beyond all my expectations – it was incredible! We both just loved it and it tasted even better! Have had so many people complimenting it, so you must feel very proud of yourself. Thank you again Cat”

"I can truthfully say that our wedding cake was the most delicious that we  have ever had! So much so that it has been a staple part of our diet in the few days since we have been married. Suitable for breakfast lunch and tea..... The biggest thank you. Not only did the cake look completely stunning but it was so delicious too and people were having multiple helpings.”

"I just wanted to write and say thank you so very much for such a stunning and delicious cake for our wedding. It looked truly beautiful and the colours with the grey icing, the white pumpkins and the pinks and greys in the flowers just looked amazing all together, you decorated it so creatively and the effect was just stunning. So many people commented on how beautiful it was.  Then to talk about the actual taste of it, it was so delicious, we literally had none left by the end of the wedding day and the drinks the following day... with people taking more home for seconds later that day, much to our dismay, but we do have the top tier still for another special time hopefully!

It was just so beautiful and so delicious so thank you so much”

"We would like to thank you so very much for a truly magnificent wedding cake! From start to finish you make the whole process so easy. Arriving back from the church, the cake was the first thing we saw and we were just amazed. It was even better than I had imagined and had that lovely 50’s feel to it.”

"A big thank you from me and my sister for that wonderful cake. My sister June thought it was beautiful as did the other guests at her party.  It tasted absolutely delicious - one of the best fruit cakes I have ever tasted.

I certainly know where to come should a I need another cake at any time."

Cakes & classes

I first met Cat when she designed and produced my son’s christening cake. Her talent was obvious then and it was a much photographed and admired cake! Her plans to pass on her skill to the next generation will no doubt be a huge success - with my culinary ability, I’ll be first through the door!!
