So when i first spoke to Melanie about what kind of cake i wanted, i kind of didn't really give her straight answers, i was very um and are about a lot of things. After a lot of messages & emails about wanting to change things and add things, come my wedding day and i couldn't have been happier with what she had come up with. Was very pleased with… the presentation & flavour of it.

I'm very grateful & thankful for the time and effort that she had put into it to make it look beautiful and yum for my big day. So a big thank you. Defiantly recommending Melanie to anyone who needs

Melanie went above and beyond with my cake design. Even though it was totally different to whatever she has done before, she was so excited when I told her about the design and I new she was the cake maker for me. The cake looked more realistic and more beautiful in person and was sooooo much better then I could ever hope for. Everyone at the… wedding thought our cake was apart of the decorations and didn't realise it was our wedding cake until we went to cut it or we told them. It was the most unique and beautiful cake and I am so lucky to have found such a talented lady. Please everyone
