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 😍

Superb cake and service!

Helen was brilliant from start to finish in making our wedding cake. It was three tiers and a real statement on the day - not only being gorgeous to look at but equally gorgeous to eat! She was great in hosting a tasting session before to allow us to choose our flavours. I would recommend Helen to anyone thinking of using her. Thank you!

Wedding cupcakes

We contacted Helen one week before our wedding as we hadn't really thought about a cake and what we wanted. To say Helen was helpful is an understatement. She was amazingly professional and offered her advice. We all had dietary requirements to cater, also not a problem. Helens cakes absolutely added to our day. Everyone that had them totally loved them. Unfortunately we didn't actually have one ourselves!
We want to say a huge massive thank you to Helen for getting us out of a sticky situation t shirt notice. Faultless service from start to finish and Helen even managed the source some particular flowers that my bride to be had asked for.
Amazing. Thank you so much Helen.

The most delicious cake I've ever tasted!😋

Me and my Husband had a intimate wedding and wanted a small cake. We met with Helen at her home and she was fantastic from start to finish. She understood our needs and we couldn't have been happier with our wedding cake! We had a white chocolate and raspberry cake, raspberry blondies and chocolate brownies decorated with fresh strawberries. We had so many compliments from our guests and it was all delicious. We got married during a heat wave Helen did a fantastic job transporting and setting up the cake at the venue. Would 100% recommend her for your wedding cake thank you so much Helen.
