Last update: April 2026

Hello from Ollie & Helen, the husband-and-wife team behind The Incredible Cake Company.

From our Eastbourne shop, we design and create elegant, bespoke wedding cakes that are crafted to feel like a natural part of your day — not just a dessert, but a true centrepiece.

With backgrounds in art and design, our approach is thoughtful and detail-led. We’re known for our flawless finishes and for transforming ideas into beautifully crafted cakes — especially when couples have something they love but aren’t quite sure how to bring it to life. Each design is carefully considered to create something that feels both personal and visually striking.

We believe the process should feel just as special as the cake itself. From your first ideas through to the final design, we take the time to understand your vision and guide you through each step, creating something truly unique to you.

Elegant, design-led wedding cakes with a flawless finish, thoughtfully created to bring your ideas beautifully to life.

Services Offered

All of our wedding cakes are bespoke, designed around your guest numbers, styling and the atmosphere you’d like to create on the day.

We begin with a consultation and tasting at our Eastbourne shop — a relaxed, one-to-one appointment where we can explore design ideas, discuss your plans in more detail and sample a selection of our flavours. It’s a lovely part of the process and often where everything starts to come together.

Consultations are £25 for two people (including drinks and a selection of cake samples), which is deducted from your order if you choose to proceed.

As a guide, our three-tier wedding cakes (serving around 80–100 guests) typically start from £595, with most couples investing between £800 and £1200 depending on the design, scale and level of detail. More intricate or statement designs are quoted individually.

We offer a wide range of flavours, including gluten-free options and a selection of vegan cakes, and are always happy to discuss specific dietary requirements.

For peace of mind, we recommend delivery and set-up at your venue so that everything is styled perfectly and ready for your day.

We create wedding cakes across Sussex and beyond, and would be delighted to be part of your celebration.

INCREDIBLE is the right word.

The cake was stunning. I mean so stunning the photos of the cake were going viral and it was the main talking point of the wedding. Several people wanted to know who made this cake so they could have them make the cake for an upcoming occasion. I didn’t get to see the cake until quite late in the day. I was blown away. Infinity & Beyond Expectations!

A perfect cake

We asked for a Harry Potter + Lord of the Rings themed cake and they absolutely delivered! Helen was so responsive and creative with the ideas we sent over, and the final design was spot on. The flavours were amazing as well! Highly recommend the lemon one

Our Garden as a Cake

It was great. Looked amazing, tasted delicious. All our guests loved it.

We had a tasting where we chose our flavours, and Helen took note of all the details we wanted incorporated.

Communication throughout if an element needed changing or questions arose. It was an incredible cake, and we had plenty left over.

Thank you so much

Amazing and simple

We have ordered with Incredible Cake Company for birthdays and baby showers in the past and all we can say is Helen and Oliver are amazing super talented and so easy to work with.

The cake flavour options are amazing and the design process was easy to bring our theme into a cake.

Will always recommend them for all occasions especially weddings. They also put some flowers on the cake from our florist and made it look stunning.

Fantastic cake, excellent service, delivered with professionalism

I would definitely recommend the Incredible Cake Company. Helen delivered the cake on time as agreed, and she spent around an hour setting the cake up beautifully. Every guest commented on how wonderful the cake looked and tasted. It was a great experience and I would recommend this company to take the stress out of this part of your day.

They made a cake that is perfect for us

We wanted a cake that leant into all of our nerdyness. Following the first meeting and cake tasting Helen was amazing, she listened to our design ideas, and drafted up exactly what we were after.

It was one of the things that we were most looking forward, and it didn't disappoint.

The flavours were also incredible, I feel a testament to how good it tasted was that we didn't have that much.

The pictures didn't do it justice to how beautiful it looked.

Highly Recommend these gorgeous cakes!

As an April 2024 bride we first got in contact with Helen for a cake tasting in February 2023. We were able to choose a few different flavours, and it was a really relaxed session with some seriously delicious cakes.

During that session, we described our vision for the cake, and she put together a PDF for us with all our ideas. Throughout the entire process, she was very accommodating to our needs and explained everything perfectly. The quoted price was extremely reasonable as well.

We also inquired about the possibility of getting some panda toppers. This was important to me, as I wanted to keep something from the wedding, and Helen and her team delivered brilliantly!

On the day, the cake was absolutely fantastic—we were completely blown away by it! The presentation, taste, and how it held up throughout the day were phenomenal. We opted for a dark chocolate and raspberry cake, as well as a Victoria sponge naked cake with fruit all around it.

The cake looked exactly as we had pictured it when we planned it back in 2023, and it was honestly one of my favourite aspects of the whole day. We had no leftovers, and our guests are still raving about the cake today.

Thank you so much, Helen and The Incredible Cake Company team, for giving us the wedding cake of our dreams! I highly recommend them to any brides out there—you will not be disappointed!

Helen was amazing

We approached Helen at short notice to create our wedding cake and she was amazing. Despite the short notice she took the time to make sure the cake was exactly how we imagined it. The cake tasted great and all of our guests commented on how good it looked. Thank you Helen!

Absolutely amazing! Made our wedding really special.

The whole process with Helen/The Incredible Cake Company was really enjoyable. After deciding how many tiers we wanted for our wedding cake, we were invited to the café for a tasting session. During this session we spoke with Helen about our design ideas, and she encouraged us to be as creative as we wanted to, even with little details which were all taken into account. For example, we went with a cake that looked like the trunk of a tree with our initials carved into it, but we also wanted it to be winter themed because our wedding was in February, so we were able to add snow, berries and flowers (snowdrops, bluebells) which matched our wedding bouquet. In addition, Helen was very understanding of my dietary requirements at the time, and was able to cater to those. The final result was so unique and beautiful, and it tasted divine! We would highly HIGHLY recommend The Incredible Cake Company and will be back again for sure!

Perfect from start to finish

We asked Helen to help us design and make our wedding cake. A top cake and 50 cupcakes. We had 2 designs and 2 flavours on the cupcakes and the top cake was carrot and pecan. The cake not only looked incredible but the flavours were spot on too. All our guests enjoyed it as we did it, nothing was wasted. The whole process was easy and we got exactly what we wanted. We are so grateful to Helen and Ollie for our cake and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Wedding cake

We approached the incredible cake company with an idea but no clue what flavours we would want or even size of cake. They spoke us through everything every step of the way and even delivered our cake on the day to the venue.

The cake was delicious and It surpassed all of our expectations.

We had so many comments on how delicious it was and how beautiful it looked on the day.

Great cakes

The cakes were lovely and looked beautiful. Helen was very helpful during our tasting session and very receptive to changes when working on the design of our top cake. They were happy to deliver the cake on the day and it all looked brilliant.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
