Hello everyone, just wanted to introduce myself - I have recently decided to concentrate purely on wedding cakes and have changed my name accordingly. As White Hyacinth Cake Design I have been supplying cakes for any occasion for the last 35 years, however, this severely restricted the amount of weddings I could be involved in, which is my true passion.

A HUGE THANK YOU to the lovely Debra White Hyacinth Cake Design
We can not recommend her highly enough for weddings and special events.
Our experience was 10/10. Debra designed our wedding cake and created a variety of different cakes to cater for our dessert for 150 guests. All the different flavours were delicious and she was super helpful in catering for so many different dietary needs.
It was a beautiful surprise to see it presented so beautifully when we arrived at our reception. I’m so pleased we chose White Hyacinth Cakes

Debra was a delight to work with. We were arranging long distance which didnt cause any problems. She knew how very important it was for my Nieces Wedding cake to be perfect and Debra delivered more than any of us could have imagined. When I saw the finished cake I couldn't stop telling the wedding guests about this lady. Supreme throughout. Highly recommend More...

Debra was so helpful with ideas for our wedding cake. We had in mind what we wanted and she helped bring it to life, keeping in with our rustic theme.
The cupcakes all disappeared with people going in for seconds which tells you everything you need to know on taste.
Debra also kindly make a separate cake boxed for my dad gluten free as not to miss out.
Thank you Debra!

What a lovely experience dealing with Debbie to whom I was recommended when wanting a bespoke 60th birthday cake for my sister. The cake was wonderful - the decoration was superb, incorporating a framed photo of my sis which was all in icing, and the 3-layered sponge was to die for. Thank you Debbie and may you enjoy continued success. More...

I can’t rate Debra highly enough. I had the strangest of requests, asking her to make a vintage car cake, but on top of that to model a gear box! The cake was superb & the gear box was even to scale. The cake was so good that no-one wanted to eat it (until they had a piece, then they wanted more!). It was delicious and a real show stopper More...

Hannah
Wedding Cakes
Totally amazing cake, really professional, we arent cake people so offered loads of advice about flavour combos etc. The cake was delicious. We went for two tier and cupcakes as we had a topper, in the colours of our football team. Everything was delivered directly to the venue, and all sorted through the wedding coordinator. Thanks so much! Would definately recommend!! More...

Our wedding cake from White Hyacinth Cakes was delicious and perfect! Debra was great and easy to work with. At our taster session we were provided with a large sample of great flavors to choose from. Our 4-tier cake was as beautiful as it was delicious. We received loads of compliments from our wedding guests on both appearance and overall taste. Thank you Debra. More...

I went to an open day that Debra held with her Husband. They were so warm and welcoming and the cake tasted amazing (especially the red velvet). Placed my order there and then for my wedding cake, can't wait for it. The price was really competitive too, will definitely go back for celebration cakes More...

Tracey
Wedding Cakes
Debra is really friendly, and welcoming. She helps you design your cake without any pressure to accept the ideas she puts forward. Her cakes are beautiful in their design and I was amazed that the cost was far less than anticipated having looked at other cake makers. Every element of the cost is broken down for you to see. We had a taste of some of the flavours and they were delicious,. We chose 3 different flavours for our cake. I am very happy with the consultation, the price , the design but mostly the lovely warm welcome we received. More...

Debra was so lovely, understanding my needs and guiding me through the cake process, without at any point making me feel obligated to place an order nor did she try to steer me down a preferred route. She simply listened to my vision and has helped me craft the most perfect cake for our big day. Total professional and you can see in her work that she loves what she does. I am beyond excited for our wedding day now! More...

Debra is lovely, amazing pricing and genuinely customer focused and willing to help
What do you love most about your job?
Absolutely all of it! I love the whole process from the first Idea of a design to delivering the finished article, but I suppose the best bit is the look on the customers face when they see a cake that they'd only seen a drawing of before. I'm very lucky to have such a wonderful job. It's not work at all!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I had been decorating cakes as a hobby for over 20 years and the orders just kept coming, so I thought I'd take the plunge. Sometimes you've just got to have faith in your ability.
Why should our clients choose you?
I suppose because I like to keep the customer as involved as possible. I know I'm doing the work but it's a big event for them and I like to think that we work together. I'm very open to ideas and try not to be pushy.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Absolutely. I have found more recently that a lot of couples are getting married in this area but actually live in another part of the country. They are purely coming 'home' to get married near their families. Our consultations can be conducted through the internet now, taster cakes can be posted, and emails/'phone calls are always available. I have catered for may weddings and events where I have not met the customer at all! It's not a problem.
