It tasted as beautiful as it looked!
Helen was amazing from the get go! She went above and beyond in our cake tasting so we could fully evaluate all options.
She instantly got the vision and look we were going for and made recommendations based on her multitude of experience and artistry.
She set up incredibly quickly and beautifully (despite the heavy rain!) and the cake was even better than I could have possibly envisioned.
As beautiful as the cake was, I can’t even begin to describe how wonderfully it tasted. The glowing reviews from the guests and how quickly all the cupcakes (especially the chocolate ones) disappeared was just a testament to how amazing they were. I personally, absolutely recommend the salted caramel, it was absolutely divine!
Helen is fantastic and I can’t recommend her enough!

Love is sweet, what a treat!
Helen of Helen's Cakery delivered superior quality in every area of service! We couldn't have asked for a better person to be part of our day and the cakes themselves were 10/10. Absolutely zero fault and such fantastic value for money. The added support of hand delivering and setting up the cake, gave us peace of mind for the whole process. We will be holding onto Helen for all of our future cake needs!Helen of Helen's Cakery delivered superior quality in every area of service!

Stunning Wedding Cake
Being lovers of cake, it was really important to find the right supplier for our wedding. Having looked around at a few suppliers, we found Helen on Facebook and straight away knew we wanted to meet her.
A little further out than our local area, we visited her house to sample some of her bakes from the flavours that we had requested. As soon as we met Helen, we knew that she was the right person as she seemed so lovely. We then tried her cakes and were blown away, it was a lovely experience in her kitchen and the cakes were delicious.
We booked her as soon as we left and felt that her personal touch, cost and quality were too good to miss out on. The next stages were seamless, great communication and Helen made sure that in the days leading up to the wedding, we had nothing to worry about.
She delivered the cakes as agreed and set them up with the flowers that were provided by the florist. It all looked so perfect and tasted even better than we remembered. All guests were so complimentary and we are so happy we booked Helen. We would recommend her 100% and will definitely use her again in the future for any other special occasions.

Helen is amazing!! To highly recommend her would be an understatement. I am a huge cake lover so our wedding cake was an important part of our day (to me anyway) and she did not disappoint.
She went above and beyond for our wedding in March from meeting for a cake tasting to setting up on the day she kept in touch not just about cake but to ask how the planning was going in general which was so lovely a real personal touch!
We had a 3 Tier cake our flavours where Pistachio, Chocolate and Lemon all of them where absolutely perfect and so delicious!
She accommodated important guests who where gluten or dairy free and made us beautiful cupcakes to go along side our wedding cake and also made the beautiful gypsophelia spiral for us that you can see on the picture all I have posted.
I will absolutely be using Helen again for birthdays or events in future I can’t wait to work with her again she’s a gem and a cake genius. 💕

Perfect Wedding Cake!
Helen produces the most magnificent cake I have ever seen! We had so many compliments about the design, not to mention how delicious it was (we served it for our pudding and it went down a treat!). It was so lovely to meet Helen and she kindly let us try lots of tasters ahead of making our flavour decisions. A really personal approach to the most professional cake production.

A masterpiece in artistry and culinary excellence!
I have no idea which higher being was guiding me when I was looking for someone to make our wedding cake, but I’m eternally grateful to have found Helen’s Cakery!
From the second we made contact with Helen, to the moment we laid eyes and tasted the finished product, it has been nothing short of perfection…if not beyond so.
I asked for a Mexican wedding cake design, and boy, did Helen deliver that, and more (including gluten-free cupcakes for our niece)! The wedding cake was a surprise for my now wife, with flavour tiers consisting of chocolate, St Clements and classic Vanilla (Victoria Sponge). {This is where I blow a IMMENSE chef’s kiss!}.
The hugely detailed and intricate design work blew us away. I knew it was going to be good, I just didn’t realise to what extent! My now wife, upon seeing the cake, had her breath taken away, then cried tears of joy! It was so emotional, even the cake was in tiers! (A joke from my wedding speech!)
Helen’s professional, patience, advice and above all else friendliness and care, is second to none.
One last thing. And nobody tell Helen I said this next bit, because I’ll deny it…. I was terrified about how much the cake might cost to make, appreciating how much time and effort would need to go in to making it. When Helen gave me her price I was very pleasantly surprised. It was a LOT less than I expected. And when I finally saw the cake on our wedding day, I would have happily paid double the amount!
Please, please, please, I implore you to ask Helen to make your cake, whatever the occasion. We, for one, will not even consider going elsewhere for any of ours.
Finally,, to Helen: Thank you! You are nothing short of wonderful and amazing. A true master artist, who cares deeply about her profession and clients.

Absolute perfection.
Helen was outstanding throughout the whole process. Our cakes looked so perfect, we almost didn't want to eat them. How we did and they went down a treat with all our guests. We certainly would use Helen's business again if we have any other special occasions. Thank you.Helen was outstanding throughout the whole process.

Helens cakes
Helen was a joy to work with and a lot more reasonably priced than other quotes we had. I sent Helen a picture of the exact cake I wanted her to make and she replicated it perfectly. We had a free cake tasting session where we had multiple flavours to choose from. We picked 4 to try and then picked our three favourite for our three tiered wedding cake. I’m not a cake fan and definitely not usually a fan of raspberry, but we tried the white chocolate and raspberry and it was absolutely delicious, I could not get enough of it so choose that for our bottom tier. We were torn between the red velvet and salted caramel for the top tier and went with the salted caramel which was beautiful. We played it safe for the middle tier and went for vanilla and strawberry.
Usually after a wedding, the bride and groom have plenty of wedding cake left to take home and freeze, not a single slice of ours was left. Luckily my groom had asked the hotel to save us a quarter of the bottom tier 🙌🏽
I cannot recommend Helen highly enough, her cakes are 2nd to none.Helen was a joy to work with and a lot more reasonably priced than other quotes we had.
