As you’d guess from our name, we make cakes to order – but not just ordinary cakes. The ones we make are beautiful and delicious. Every cake is handmade to the highest standard. We can create almost every type of cake you could possibly imagine – and even some that you couldn't. Our original designs include bespoke hand painted, hand carved and hand modelled cakes.

We have a superb selection of beautiful handmade wedding cakes in a variety of designs to suit any theme, including classic, contemporary, novelty styles and individual fairy cakes. We can also create a unique, custom-designed cake for you, incorporating any colours, fabrics, theme or personal touch you wish into the design.

Although our company is based in the South of England with our shop in Reading, we provide an on-line service to cater for all areas of the UK. Our cakes can be delivered all over the UK (mainland only). Each cake by post is carefully gift wrapped for transportation and delivered next day by courier. The cakes can be also be hand delivered locally or collected from our shop in Woodley.

We still maintain a dedicated telephone service line. Our experienced team of staff are available to assist and help you and your ideas become a reality. We are also delighted to offer a personal consultation in our shop at the customer’s convenience.

Our Sugar Craft Shop has all the equipment and supplies for creating your own cakes at home. We stock a wide variety of products which include cupcake cases, sugarpaste in every colour, cake boards, a range of cutters and tools and much more. We also offer a stand and tin hire service.
