Wedding Cake - three tiers and flavours

The service provided was really excellent. We were able to try a selection of flavour combinations before our wedding, and the studio managed to accommodate a huge number of vegan options. In addition, the website was easy to access and use, and the price was incredibly good value. The setup of the chosen cake on the day was efficient and quick, we were really impressed. Everyone at the wedding said how delicious every layer was: including the vegan layer, with many not noticing it was vegan! We would strongly recommend Thistleberry Cake Studio.

Amazing wedding cake!

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful or delicious wedding cake! The cake was moist, flavorful, and perfectly balanced—not overly sweet, just indulgent in the best way.

Thank you for being such an important and memorable part of our special day. We highly recommend Thistleberry Cake Studio to any couple looking for a wedding cake that tastes as amazing as it looks!

Absolutely Amazing!

Sophianna's Bakery was the perfect choice for us! I wasn't sure what I wanted for a wedding cake but I had cake decorations already as I had planned to make our wedding cake. After deciding this was I bad idea, I reached out the Sophianna's Bakery and was blown away by the help she gave me.

On the day the cake was delivered and all the decorations I put out were added to the cake and it looked beautiful!

The cake turned out 1000x better than I even imagined and everyone was complimenting how delicious it was!

110% recommend!

When choosing a Wedding cake for a family member, the pressure is on. I was instantly put at ease with Sophianna's Bakery. All my questions were answered quickly and suggestions were made to assist in making the cake absolutely perfect. The attention to detail and delicate touches were beautiful. We were so thrilled with how it looked and ofcourse how delicious it tasted! Thank you so much Sophianna's Bakery!

Hi, I'm Bola.

I started baking almost 17 years ago when my first daughter was born. I loved eating cakes but I hated the taste of store bought cakes and so i started to play around with different flavours. I then took a diploma in cake decorating and 12 years ago, I started my first cake business.

Since then I've had the pleasure of being part of many important milestones, creating cakes that not only taste divine but also look beautiful and mazing. I work closely with couples to ensure that they get a beautiful cake regardless of their budget. I believe that cake is the last thing any bride or groom should have to worry about on their wedding day and so i have processes in place to give every client I work with peace of mind.
