No longer baking cakes.......  

A lot of people ask me if I can recommend someone who may be able to make a cake for them but unfortunately I can't, simply because I've never tasted anyone elses cakes so wouldn't be able to say for sure what they might taste like.

If anyone did want a cake, I would suggest logging onto the "We are from Hitchin" Facebook page and asking the question on there as I'm sure people would be only to happy to recommend someone who may have made a cake for them.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Kindest regards

My photos are in a real mish mash order - I just post them as I do them.  Have a little look through the pages and see what you think (wish I had a smiley face option here!) x

And this one was an 8 inch .....

Vegan chocolate cake - not so sure I would want to do one of these as a celebration cake as it was a little crumbly but for afternoon tea or for someone who cannot or chooses not to eat eggs and dairy, this isn't a bad option.  Would work perfectly as cupcakes too.

Two tier baby shower cake. Lemon sponge with white choc butter icing and seedless raspberry preserves on the top and vanilla with vanilla butter cream and seedless raspberry on the bottom. x

For a gorgeous 7 year old who loves puppies and kittens

Penny and Brenda are 70 year old twins who love stopping for a cheeky wine when shopping.  They are off to New York to celebrate their birthdays (hence the Macy's bag at the back of the cake) along with Penny's daughter Jo, who is 50 and loves shoes and handbags :)

Not everyone wants all the bells and whistles - this is an 8 inch rich chocolate cake, with butter cream and maltesers and it stands at about 5 inches tall including the icing.

A Christening cake!

A cake for a trainee plumber!

These cakes were made for a wedding fayre that a very nice lady I know attends; her stall is for wedding cosmetics but she always likes a little something sweet to pass out for customers.

Holy Communion cakes and cupcakes; 10 inch chocolate cake with an 8 inch lemon cake on top.  Cupcakes were vanilla.

A first for me.....cupcakes to celebrate an adoption.......

Peppa looks incredibly odd!  She was actually looking at Kevin the Minion but in hindsight, perhaps she shouldn't have been (raised eyebrows!)  For the gorgeous Franklin who especially loves 3 things; Peppa, Minions and Thomas.

For the everso gorgeous Lola; a chocolate cake for her to take home and share with her family and some individually wrapped biscuits for her friends,

And now for something completely different.....Darth Vader cupcakes!

 A little late night baking because there is nothing at all to put in pack ups for the family!  I do enjoy a scone :)

/Sticky toffee puds - my sister in laws favourite; she can eat three of these whilst she's here and still be happy to take home left overs lol.

This little girl loves parrots....and just one penguin.  The small cake was made in tropical colours to match the theme of the cupcakes.

For Rio who was 14 .....where have those years gone :)

Joint celebration cupcake board; she likes pink and pretty, has 4 cats and was 30 and her brother works with computers and enjoys scuba diving and rifle range shooting!

Jack Daniels, music, fast cars, weights and 21  :)

1st Holy Communion cakes for some very good friends. x

Chocolate lovers  I think for the cake above!  Four layer vanilla cake filled with milk chocolate butter icing and drizzled with white and pink melted chocolate as per their request.

I really do enjoy doing the personalised cupcake boards!

Banana and caramel cupcake you say? 

 

Jungle themed celebration!

I did like doing this pick and mix cake!  Lots of left over sweets too :)

For the everso gorgeous Katie.......who is appearing in the current version of The Railway Children at Kings Cross.

Cupcakes for Valentines Day - I love using my edible printer alongside my hand made decorations; I think it gives you endless possibilities.

Something a little different for me!  Decorated cookies - having discovered yet a new baking obsession, I'm under the impression that if it can go on a cupcake, it can go on a cookie.

Fabulous for a childrens party!  No mess and believe me, you can drop them and they still look perfect - I know this for a fact :) Different coloured vanilla sponge with vanilla butter cream.
******
My new favourite thing to do  - cupcakes boards.  I think I could do these all day long and be happy.

Popular little beggars, these!  These one's are choc sponge with a white choc buttercream.

Something a little different for me; a decorated cupcake board!  Looked even better in 'real life'.  Could be done for any occasion at all.

I think perhaps, that I love doing cupcakes above all else, especially when they are for such a lovely lady.

I absolutely loved making these colourful wedding cakes!  I think Gerbera's are my new favourite thing. The cakes included 1 x 12 inch and 1 x 6 inch rich fruit cake, 2 x 8 inch madeira cakes and 1 x 10" square madeira cake, just in case.  The theme of the wedding was 'Rainbow'.

I did a wedding for a lovely couple at the beginning of December but due to poor light etc., I didn't get a good picture.  Andy and Joy were kind enough to send me the two pictures above.  Lovely couple in a lovely venue.
**Sue, your cup cakes and fruit cake tasted as amazing as they looked. Your help bringing them to our venue, and loan of your stand, took a great deal of hassle away from both of us, and helped us be worry free. You took our ideas for colour and design and created the most beautiful cakes, which we were 1000% happy with! Our guests were talking about them the next day, which is always a great compliment. Thank you for being so lovely and having an amazing talent. Andy & Joy xx**

Burger cake and shortbread chips for the very lovely Joanne's son Tom

.Veggie pizza, single layer, chocolate cake with Malteser olives!

The cake above was made for my niece Christine who is allergic to many things including; dairy, gluten and nuts.  The top tier of this cake was a GF, dairy and nut free chocolate cake just for her and the bottom tier was a vanilla madeira, just for us :)

The teddy bear cake matched the party invites......

A good bit of lustre, some snowflakes and some ice shards :)

Not the best picture I have ever taken!  It was a dark and gloomy morning and we've had so many lateley.  Really need some winter sunshine to top up the vitamin D levels :)  Anyhow, Peppa and George enjoying a muddy puddle!

Footie fans :) and one of them also likes tennis!

For the lovely Lisa :)

Tiara cake for the very lovely Summer xx

Can't believe these are the first Frozen cupcakes I've done :)

I loved doing this cake - It's such a happy theme :)

This nautical cake was based on the decorations and birthday stationary that the very lovely Lisa was having to celebrate her son's 1st birthday. When someone jumps up and down in your hall way and gives you more than one huge cuddle, you know they are happy.  Love baking for this lady - she never fails to give my confidence a massive boost.

Farm themed cake with Bailey, Nanna's golden labrador.

Those 1D boys get everywhere!

A golden wedding cake

Small cutting cake and loads of cupcakes for a London themed wedding.  The bride and groom collected the cakes themselves, to set up at a venue the following day.  Rather than put the cake topper into the cake and risk it falling out in transit, I packaged it separately so they could assemble it when they got on site.  There were a mixture of carrot and philly, chocolate and white choc butter icing and vanilla and vanilla butter cream cupcakes along with a maderia sponge cake which was filled with vanilla butter icing and seedless raspberry preserves.  I loaned them my 7 tier stand and I have my fingers crossed for a photo sometime later in the month :) One of the requests from the bride and groom was rather than have red, white and blue, the colours I should use would be burgundy, navy and a very pale gold.

Mulberry and sage were the colours for this wedding.  The tiered cake consisted of a vanilla madeira with vanilla butter cream and seedless raspberry preserves on the bottom and a lemon drizzle, with lemon curd and lemon butter cream on the top.  The cupcakes included half a dozen gluten free but all of them were the same flavour - lemon.

I've been asked for similar cakes to this before but I'm not very brave so if I think I can't do something, I say no as I would hate for people to be disappointed in something I did for them but......this lady is so lovely, I knew that if it wasn't OK, she would still enjoy a nice bit of sponge lol, so I said yes. x

Happy birthday Spiderman fan :) xx

Strictly 50 cupcakes :)

Lego Cake and Ninjago Cupcakes :)

For the very lovely Lola

Zoo themed cake :)

This request was.......Something not too fussy, with perhaps the odd blossom and a few sprinkles.

Shocker of a photo lol.  I completely forgot about taking a picture until just before it was due out of the door and just before the Mother In Law arrived :)  Still, it was a nice cake and the lady was very happy with it. x

Garden party themed wedding - they had real turf on their tables

Best thing about a little bit of left over butter cream is finding a spare cupcake in the freezer and when eating it, finding out it's a lemon one :) x

 I wanted something jolly and spring like for my sister in laws birthday and it's been such a beautiful day.....can't say I'm unhappy to see the back of the rain! (March 2014)

Oh Lordy, the smell of chocolate in my house!  You may notice that there are dribbles of white chocolate all over the box, this is because I decorated them when I'd put them in position as otherwise, my thumbs get in the way when the cakes are so fully loaded.  In this case, the cakes are for a very nice lady who I'm sure will be picking off the dried white choc to consume it after the cakes have all gone (big huge smiley face here).

I love this combination of colours....the invitations were navy, ivory and champagne gold.  Rather than do a dark colour in the decorations, I chose a navy cupcake case and then did the toppers in the lighter colours.

The first time I saw Tye, he was about two and he's still as gorgeous as he was then!  Tye doesn't like white icing or jam but he does love Tennis!

The names Bond.......

And for Bond's daughter.....

Lemon cupcakes with lemon butter icing

 

I don't normally do toppers on their own but these were for one of my daughters friends.

Adventure before dimentia!  Camper vans .......a family joke. x

And you can tell a lot about my daughters choice of music from the toppers she chose for herself!  Not sure who any of them are but she was chuffed to bits lol.

For the gorgeous Georgia xx Mr Tumble on his bag with a dozen cupcakes to match

Wonder where they are off to?

Got a bit of a theme going here!

150 cupcakes with a rich fruit cake - to go on my 7 tier stand.  Half of the cakes were chocolate sponge with white choc butter cream and the other half were vanilla sponge with vanilla butter cream.  I also iced half with fondant and half with piped butter cream and added half a dozen gluten free cupcakes for one of the guests.

"Thanks again for your amazing cakes.  All of our guests were in awe when they saw them and all commented on how stunning they looked as well as how delicious they tasted.  I've bought cup cakes before but none were in anyway close to how wonderful your cakes were.

Your stand showed them off to there full beauty, and really suited the venue for the party.

Thank you for making the order and pick up so easy and straight forward."

Gluten Free Vanilla Cupcakes

I did this for my Niece who had her first baby a week ago.  The name has been kept a secret and so Paula asked me to make up some blocks and she bought the letters on line and stuck them on herself......I can tell you now, that my newest Great Niece is called Bethany (smiley face) xx

My Other nieces wedding cake - 12 inch carrot and walnut with orange butter cream, 10" choc cake with choc butter icing and an 8 inch rich fruit cake.  Different shades of pink roses (you can't really see them all in this pic), silver leaves & butterflies, with silver ribbon.....oh, and a picture of her cockatiels! xx

No introduction required I think!

Twin's first birthday.

For a Scrabble fan :)

Getting the hang of these tiered cakes now :-)  Can't take the credit for this one as it's heavily based on a picture that the customer supplied.....although the udders are all mine - well, not literally but you know what I mean :-) The bottom tier is a 12" Madeira sponge with vanilla butter cream and seedless raspberry preserves and the top tier is a 10" double chocolate sponge which rose beautifully in my Alan Silverwood tins that I've had for years and never used! They're coming out again for sure. xx

"Chocolate" she said, "My mum loves chocolate".  That should do it!
" I must say this cake was amazing!!! Went down so well and everyone commented on how great it looked. They got even more excited when they tasted it  

Huge thank you! Oh and it cut beautifully ... Xx"

These cakes above were made for a friend who wanted to entice people to her non cakey display, at a recent wedding fayre.

Cupcake Message board.  I really like the idea of these and look forward to doing more of them.  There's so much potential in a pretty board and pretty cupcakes!  In addition, this lady had loads of home bakes and cakes for an afternoon tea party to celebrate her special birthday.
"THANK YOU SO MUCH for the wonderful cakes, cup cakes, scones and shortbread you made for my party (in the rain) on Sunday.  What an array!
 
Your cakes were not only a sight for sore eyes but were a delight to the tummy and everyone enjoyed them thoroughly.........indeed absolutely fabulous and very little left over.  Your really are very talented - well done.
 
The little cup cakes on the board with my name and age on went down a storm with the children and looked wonderful with the flower cake.  As soon as I have some pictures I will send them on to you.
  
Once again, thank you so very much".

The lady wanted cupcakes but also wanted something she could carry in like a cake but something easy to portion up for the kids to take home.  These are edible images on a covered board.  Next time, I would cover the board in icing.

Photo image cake - a man and his hobby!

Birthday present from the man's wife and a very nice lady she is too!

A Sonic Cake?  Had a quick word with my daughter to ask her what she thought I should include and we decided on trees, hills, gold rings, the fella himself and clouds.

Not everyone likes fondant - this was for a very special boy on his birthday and his order was for chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate and it had to be Cadbury's.  Very specific in his design requests too!

Happy Mothers day.  I did a selection of these; some carrot with a Philly topping, some double chocolate (white chocolate butter cream), some vanilla and some Gluten Free.  Everyone was happy!

Gluten Free Vanilla cupcakes (apparently, these were the best GF cakes she had ever tasted which was a lovely compliment after a bit of a difficult weekend!)

A little 6 inch round Madagascan vanilla bean cake with white chocolate butter cream and seedless raspberry preserve - baked especially for my friend to take skiing - honestly, my cakes travel further than I do!

What a nice way to send a message to someone. I can add these to any cupcakes

Simply stunning Sue. So many compliments on the look and the taste of your amazing cakes. You are a very talented lady x (Bride)

Gorgeous cakes sue. Thank u so much from a very happy mother of the bride

This cake was for someone who had been in the Grenadier guards and who had also been a builder - can't have a builder without a cup of tea!

I was worried about this one as the lady who reuqested it is a great fan of Choccywockydoodah - I had a lot to live up to!  Thankfully, they loved it..........

"James absolutely loved it, as did everyone at both his parties.  And it was truly delicious – thank you!  Will be recommending you to everyone"
With my cake dedicated printer, I can do edible images on cakes too......

Moshi Monsters

Thomas and friends

 This man was 60 and his interests involved Welsh rugby, Wales, Beer, Cigarettes and his guitar.  My dad is a huge rugby fan and luckily I could remember a few names from the 70's to go on his cakes....Gareth Edwards is in there somewhere, scoring a try....

 

Sports themed cupcakes for a huge cricket fan

Not sure what the owl was for though.....

All things bright and beautiful!

Mixture of edible prints and hand made decorations for a huge Chelsea fan

Handbags and shoes, I could do dresses as well for a prom celebration.

Something to do with a hobby perhaps?

And if you want to know what goes on underneath the icing.....these are my naked cakes, fresh from the oven!  It's really important to me that my cakes taste as good as they look.......

Sometimes I have to do a bit of research....Octonauts - I had to look these little fellas up on the Internet; 

I love doing birthday and celebration cakes - such happy occasions don't you think?

For the most gorgeous 4 year old....I could have run off with her (well not really but you know what I mean).  Where is that smiley button when you need it?!

Crown green bowling anyone?

For beautiful Alice....happy birthday.

I liked doing this one although I have to admit, I did have to do a lot of stamping out of circles.....

This one was a 9" Gluten Free Madeira Sponge cake - 3 layers for additional height, with pearlised flowers and pearl beading around the edge.

"My parents absolutely loved the cake! My mum was so happy to be able to eat proper cake, definitely the best gluten free cake all of us have tasted. So thank you so much for your beautiful work, really made their day"

You are very well priced too and we were so glad that we chose you to provide our wedding cakes.  We will definitely recommend you to everyone we know.

 Thank you.

I do love compliments! They make me smile so much, my cheeks ache.

4^th May 2012 Wedding – The Sun Hotel, Hitchin

Wedding at the Sun Hotel, Hitchin.  Red and Gold

I can add ages to cupcakes if you like.....
"Just wanted to say that the cupcakes went down a treat at our party - everyone thought they were beautiful and my mum and dad loved them

 This is an 8" rich fruit cake and as always, all of the decorations are edible
A big, big thank you for the most wonderful cake you made for our party!!!!!!   It was much admired by all, and very good value indeed!  I will certainly recommend you to anyone and everyone, and will "like" you again on Facebook.

10" Madeira sandwich cake

They don't all have to be fondant.......

This is a 9" round cake and you can get a good idea of how many it would serve by the amount of chocolate fingers (3 packs!) around the edge and the Maltesers on top.  This is a very versatile cake and could be done in different flavours (raspberry and white chocolate, lemon, coffee etc), perhaps using white chocolate fingers or by using chocolate cigarillos around the outside and covering the top in luscious chocolates.

Huge chocolate cake, made into an Ipod.....

Something simple .....

Mr Tumble Cake

 

Ipod and .....

.........App cupcakes

Chocolate Giant cupcake.....could do better.  Must make another one!

9" round Farm Cake

I've used these animal faces on cupcakes before and they look really effective but this customer sent me a picture that she had found online and asked if I could replicate it so it's not my original design.
