Cakes we have made

Past commissions, photographed by Tinu in her own kitchen. Each one was designed around a brief — a name, an animal, a colour, a date. Yours would be too.

Single-tier cake in terracotta velvet, topped with one large white sugar magnolia and scattered small white sugar hearts, a pair of white sugar swans facing each other at the base, and a silver glitter topper cut as a stag and a doe whose heads and antlers form two interlocking hearts around the words Mr & Mrs, standing on a confetti-print board

Wedding

Terracotta velvet with a sugar magnolia and swans

Pale blue velvet cake on a matching blue board, with a modelled grey elephant holding a blue balloon and a mirrored silver "Happy Birthday" topper on top, white fondant letters across the top spelling out a child’s name and "turns one", small white parcels tied with navy ribbon, and a white fondant train with navy wheels running right around the base

First birthday

Elephant and train, turning one

Tall cake in matte black icing flecked and streaked with gold leaf, topped with a chocolate-coated ice-cream bar standing on its stick, a fan of chocolate-dipped nut-studded wafer sticks, hazelnut truffles, malted chocolate balls, broken chunks of milk chocolate and halved fresh figs, with a second ice-cream bar, a wafer bar and more figs propped against the base

Showstopper

Black and gold chocolate indulgence

Pale grey velvet cake dressed with pink fondant daisies, one white and one pink sculpted heart, two small white fondant roses and one small pink one, finished with a piped pink pearl border around the base and a rose-gold mirrored Mr & Mrs topper of two interlocking hearts, with loose daisies and petals scattered on the white board

Wedding

Blush blossoms for Mr & Mrs

Deep teal-blue velvet cake on a mirrored rose-gold pedestal stand, with a silver number 21 candle and a cluster of silver pearls on top, two tall thin silver candles behind, the birthday guest’s name spelled out in small silver letters across the front, a graduated fan of silver bars rising up one side and a mirrored acrylic plaque reading "happy birthday"

Birthday

Teal and silver, twenty-first

Round cake stood upright on its edge, finished in coral velvet, with hand-piped buttercream blossoms in dusty periwinkle blue and cream massed down both curved sides and thinning to loose petals across the bare centre, the flowers centred with silver pearls or piped cream, and a row of mauve piped shells and one piped mauve rose along the top curve

Celebration
