Helen the super star Baker

I chose Helen as my wedding cake provider, and all I can say was she was fantastic from beginning until end.
Helen offered us a wedding cake tasting trial, which was not only amazing due to the beautiful cakes, but she welcomed us into her home, and it gave such a natural and more personalised experience. Helen was such a lovely lady, who was easy to get along with.
The cake Helen made for us was beautiful. In the end we chose a cherry bakewell, chocolate and a carrot cake foe our 3 tiered cake. The decoration was beautiful, she lent us a cake stand and it was decorated exactly how we wanted.
I couldn't recommend Helen enough for anyone who is looking for a wedding cake which is amazing value for money!!!

Beautiful Wedding Cake! 🤍🍰

Helen is lovely and communication was very easy and clear. We were recommended Helen Bakery by some friends.

We had a cake tasting session, in the lead up to the wedding planning, which was really fun to do. There were so many great choice of cake flavours, we ended up going with 3!

Our wedding was in May and was almost 30 degrees. The cake stayed up ok in the heat, with a bit of help from the aircon at the venue.

Helen was willing to travel an hour to our venue, which we were super grateful for. Thank you so much again Helen!

Best around

Helen was increadable from start to finnish. From inital contact she made us feel so relaxed. We spent months trying to find someone to do our wedding cake. All eaither wanting to charge £2000+ and the flavours didnt wow us. But then we found Helen her cakes tasted increadable. Full of flavour and soft. After the tasting she even sent us home with some cake. We finally had our wedding day the cake was set up beautiful and was a massive hit with all the guests.
Cant rate her any more great value for money and amazing flavour and communication.

Absolutely amazing! ❤️

We couldn’t be happier with the cake we ordered! Not only did it look absolutely stunning, but it tasted even better than we imagined. The attention to detail was incredible, and you can really tell how much care and creativity went into making it. Every layer was fresh, moist, and full of flavor.

Communication throughout the process was smooth and professional, and everything was delivered right on time. It truly exceeded our expectations and was the highlight of the celebration!

I would highly recommend this cake Helen to anyone looking for something special and memorable. I’ll definitely be ordering again in the future!

Nice vegan cake

Helen was nice and helped us with our cake for the day. Sadly there was an issue with the bottom layer of our cake but we spoke with her and she kindly did her best to make it up. The cake looked lovely and tasted very nice.

Lemon delight

Helen was lovely - we got to try a good range of flavours at the cake tasting, and Helen was very knowledgable about numbers and logistics. Her cakes were tasty and not dry. Very easy to work with throughout. We had so many compliments about the cake from guests - would highly recommend.

Absolute perfection!

Helen created the most magical and stunning cake with twinkly lights for our Christmas themed wedding. It was truly magnificent and tasted absolutely amazing.
From the first meeting with tasting session to the end product - everything was first class. We cannot thank Helen enough. 100% recommend. Xx

Three tier wedding cake

Thank you so much to Helen for a beautiful and delicious cake. We had a tasting session and decided on lemon, carrot and caramel. We planned the design together and it was absolutely spot on. The weather has been very hot around the wedding and Helen had organised back up plans with the venue and planner to make sure the cake was not at risk and help with the fresh flowers left by the florist. Everyone loved the cake and it was gone within a day of the wedding.

Perfection!!!

If I could give 10 stars, I would.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Helen for my wedding cake in August, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Helen is simply wonderful, warm, diligent, and genuinely committed to creating a cake that perfectly matches your vision.

During our consultation, I was quite undecided about the design, but Helen came prepared with thoughtful suggestions that made the process so easy. She truly went above and beyond with the flavours too, allowing me to have a different flavour for each tier; something my guests are still raving about!

If you’re looking for a wedding cake that’s elegant, delicious, and crafted by someone who listens carefully and delivers exceptional quality without breaking the bank, look no further than Helen’s Cakery.

You will not be disappointed!

Amazing Wedding Cake

We were let down by someone booked and our wedding planner found Helen’s Cakery. At short notice they sent us a 6 flavour sample box we picked from an amazing list of cakes. They were all delicious and we selected what we thought would be crowd pleasers. The cake looked amazing and was absolutely delicious. Can’t recommend enough. Thank you for a spectacular wedding cake

Wow! Amazing!

I would highly recommend! Communication has been great from day one and was given lots of different options on styles and flavours. Even a tasting session to decide on flavours! Delivered to the venue on day of my wedding. And the cakes, brownies, cookies and cupcakes tasted incredible 😍
