60th Wedding Anniversary.

We asked for a multi tier cake to serve 80 people. We asked for different flavour tiers and sent images We had collected from the Internet matching our surprise party theme. The cake that was delivered was out of this world! No request was too much trouble. We received regular updates throughout the making process and were over the moon with the unique hand made details of the cake down to the water droplets on the petals and leaves of the hand made roses.

Birthday cake

Special birthday cake
I gave Yvonne a short brief. Yvonne asked several questions like favourite colour, style of cake and size and Yvonne asked for a photo similar to my requirements. The cake was in fact perfect. My wife loved it Purple with flowers and lace. Yvonne put a message on the cake board which was a great idea.

Fantastic service from start to finish ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yvonne was amazing from the designing and expert knowledge in creating my parents golden wedding anniversary cake among various other since. I wanted it to be a bespoke cake with all the elements of their original cake from the 70s with a modern day twist! Incorporating all the golden wedding elements that celebrated 50 years of marriage.
Every one commented on it visually and also on the taste and texture.
I would not hesitate in recommending the Cottage cakes company and I hope to use them for my children’s weddings in the future ! Thank you and good luck 🤞

Celebration Cake

Yvonne is a very professional person and will listen to what the customer wants to get ‘perfection’ in the cakes she makes. Her customer service is brilliant and will give you updates on how the cake is coming along. She makes you aware of allergens present in the cake and will bring the cake with a smile and you know that she is proud of the work that goes into it. Her cakes and work are fantastic and I cannot fault them at all. She puts a lot of effort into making the customer the happiest when they see it.

Best of the best

Not only do these amazing creations look incredible, but once you can force yourself to cut the creation, the cakes taste as good as their creation. The finest detail on an exceptional instruction was perfection and to think it couldn't be done! We were proven wrong. As I said, the best of the best in every way. Thank you.

Couldn’t recommend enough!

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish! Yvonne did exactly what we wanted for our wedding cake and it was perfect in every way. Not only did it look beautiful, but it tasted amazing too! Every single guest raved about it.

Since then, I’ve officially made her my cake lady! She’s done my husband’s birthday cake, my mum’s, and now she’s making mine as well, and each one has been just as incredible as the last.

Yvonne is such a sweet, lovely person and will always try her best to accommodate exactly what you want. I honestly couldn’t recommend her highly enough to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and genuinely caring cake maker.

Thank you so much, Yvonne! 💕🎂

Not Just Incredible Looking! Really Tasty!

We are so glad we chose Yvonne to make our wedding cake - it didn’t just look absolutely stunning, it tasted phenomenal too!

Fantastic value for money and we could see exactly where every single part of the costs went.

Budget friendly? Absolutely, we discussed the costs of various cake options upfront before agreeing to the final order, and felt completely comfortable with what we were spending.

Yvonne was very helpful, really friendly and she genuinely showed how much she cares about what she does and helped make our wedding day really special.

Beautiful design, delicious cake

Yvonne came to the rescue when we placed a last minute order for our wedding cake. I gave a brief outline of what we wanted and she created a cake that was far better than I could’ve imagined. She crafted beautiful handmade sugar flowers and the cake itself was delicious - we had so many compliments from our guest! Couldn’t recommend Yvonne enough, 10/10 service.
