Having a Halloween wedding we needed a cake that was both statement and magical. Toni was the only one I would trust with such an endeavour. The cake was absolutely breathtaking - everything I had dreamed of and more. Down to the tiny details such as the stars and moons to match my veil in which Toni suggested. It tasted as incredible as it looked and all our guests were talking about this wonderful cake for the weeks after! Toni managed to safely transport this cake over the Irish Sea for me - it's fair to say she is a Baker that truely goes beyond. Thank you so such again Red Velvet Bakery ♥️ More...

We met Toni just a year before our wedding day for cake tasting. We instantly felt her passion & when we tried the cakes we were blown away. We chose chocolate, lemon & banoffee for our 3 tiered wedding cake (the banoffee surprised us!). All her flavours were amazing, making it so hard to choose from. On the day itself, the cake was better than what we imagined, both in looks & in taste. We had many compliments from our guests. Would definitely be recommending! Thank you again Toni. More...

Genuinely the BEST cake I've ever tasted and I've eaten a LOT of cake! Toni's salted caramel cake is simply divine 😋 She really has a passion for what she does and it comes out in her cakes. Can't recommend Red Velvet Bakery highly enough 🙌 More...

Toni did our wedding cake, amazing service from first meet. Great comms, easy to deal with, fitted in with dietary requirements. Cake 3 tiers were moist, incredibly tasty, lasted really well. The consultation went well and we were able to get eat we wanted and Toni absolutely delivered on that. The service on the day was amazing, in there early setting up, liaising with kitchen on what to serve and what to save for us. I cannot recommend Toni highly enough. By random chance, her husband is a wedding photographer, we benefited from a huge synergy in Toni supporting the photographer, great service for free or the love of the craft. Toni & photographer husband Stuart (Portfolio photographer) were certainly our best wedding decision, I would use again in a heartbeat. Love your work Toni x More...

Being a wedding photography I know from tasting alotta cake through the years it is so important to get this right ! Guests really do love the cake and when I myself got married this year I knew without in any doubt Red Velvet Bakery was going to making and designing my wonderful cake. Toni is the only cake maker that I recommend to all my Bride and grooms and it was so exciting for it to be my own turn! Not one crumb was left and everybody said it was incredible ! More...

Our wedding cake from Red Velvet Bakery was absolutely amazing! It looked beautiful and was exactly what we asked for. It also tasted incredible- we went for layers of raspberry & white chocolate, chocolate orange, and blackberry & elderflower. The tasting beforehand was great fun and Toni was such a lovely person.

Toni was very open to our unusual idea for our wedding cake in June 2024. We knew what we wanted to make for the middle tier but apart from the shape we had no idea about the top and bottom tiers. We went for a consultation and tasting, all the flavours were amazing, and Toni's experience and knowledge helped us decide on the rest of our cake. Everyone commented on the look and the flavours of our Wedding cake (lemon for top tier and salted caramel for the bottom). Toni is very responsive to messages and we would highly recommend Red Velvet Bakery to anyone and she us a lovely person to deal with. More...

Toni The minute I met you and your sparkly boots at the Burton Town Hall Wedding Fayre I knew you were the one! Your personality won me over before I’d even tried your cake. Then came the socially distanced cake tasting, wowzers, the whole process from the initial consultation and design through to the cake tasting was really superb, but how hard was it to make a decision from all those wonderful flavours, it could have gotten out of control very easily. Nevertheless we managed to reign it in and choose our 3 flavours, and we cannot thank enough for making the most amazing cake for our wedding day!! It looked stunning, it tasted amazing and was just as we’d dreamed of and we’d chatted about, you really are a phenomenal artist and baker. Your advice to keep some aside to have together later was perfect, we enjoyed it with fizz when opening our presents and we’ve still got the flower, the topper and the menu, such lovely little touches which we’ll treasure. You were an absolute diamond to deal with, we really can’t recommend you highly enough. As you know we had a few difficulties in the planning of the wedding but one thing that wasn’t difficult was knowing we wanted you to make our cake, we both agree that if we had to do it all again, there is no doubt we’d choose you…. feel free to call us if you ever need any help with cake tasting in the future.

Right from the start Toni shaped the vision that was to be our wedding cake. My husband and I are both gluten free and I have a few other allergies, which cause issues with eating all the time, however, Toni didn't bat an eye lid. We wanted something different and dark, but romantic and delicate, and Red Velvet Bakery nailed it in every way. The taste was to die for and it was moist, light and tasty, which, in my opinion, is difficult to achieve for gluten free cakes. Toni's creation showed our personality, had everything we wanted and more, and was a complete show stopper that people are still talking about! Im sorry to be adding this review so late, but unfortunately, I've had health issues that caused quite a few hospital stays.

OMG the best cake I have ever eaten! I booked Red Velvet for my Wedding Cake after trying the Cherry Bakewell flavour at a Wedding Open Evening and there were no regrets! Toni was so lovely and the cake tasting was amazing; everything was so delicious and we were able to pick whatever flavours we wanted (even bespoke ones) and completely customise the cake to our theme. We went with the Cherry Bakewell, Banoffee and Rum and Whiskey and Orange and I enjoyed every single bite. The guests were blown away by how good it tasted and it stayed good for a whole week - which is how long it took us to finish what we’d bought home! Not only did it taste great it also looked amazing, again we got so many compliments on this! Toni was lovely to work with and took the time to message me the night before the Wedding and to say hello and congratulate me on the morning which is really going above and beyond on the customer service.

Q&As

I get to bake, create, have fun and make people smile. I've got the best job in the world :-)

My husband has an extremely sweet tooth so weekends would be spent baking. I was made redundant and couldn't find a job that I really wanted so I'd be bored at home on my own and my weekend baking graduated into weekday baking so he ended up bring treats into work most days.

One of his work colleagues suggested I started a business and here I am !!

I am all about personal service and going the extra mile. It's not just about baking something yummy, it's about making clients happy

As an EHO 5 star rated business I already operate with high standards of cleanliness in my kitchens, including washing my hands very often. I also ensure I wear a face mask and gloves then delivering orders so as to protect myself and others
