Absolutely incredible, instead of a traditional wedding cakes we order nearly everything off the menu for our wedding and everyone loved it, so much so that the wedding cake got demolished before we could save some!
Love finding coffee shops and sampling his latest creations - chocolate and avacado is amazing!
Can’t recommend you enough!

What do you love most about your job?
Food is my passion! I love the art of food and experimenting with flavours and colours. I can bake all day and still enjoy cooking for my wife and children in the evening. Working from my home, I thrive on being in my family environment, with my three young children and another due in July, seeing my work and learning from what I do. So here I am, loving life and baking cakes for you to enjoy!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been in the catering industry for the past twelve years, working in a variety of settings including The Abode in Canterbury and Mrs Jones' Kitchen, where I stood as Head Chef and Head Baker. This role involved a LOT of baking, some of which became famous around Canterbury (such as the popular Jiffy Slice). All the food was freshly cooked on the premises and we received a five-star food hygiene rating whilst the kitchen was under my care.
In 2015, equipped with a plethora of skills and experience from my time working in such high-quality restaurants and eateries, I made the decision to take a risk and go it alone, and with the full support of my wife, Beardy Baker was born.
