Rachel was amazing to work with from start to finish. Our wedding cake was absolutely outstanding, the finished cake was exactly as I had pictured and tastes delicious. We had a 3 tiers of sponge - coffee with Tia Maria cream, chocolate mud cake and a vanilla cookies and cream. All were fantastic our guests have all said how wonderful it looked and tasted. Couldn’t recommend any higher! More...

Rachel made our wedding cake for us last week and the cake was stunning and tasted delicious. From our first meeting with her, Rachel was very patient and understood exactly what we were looking for and together we designed the 5 tier wedding cake. She had a lot of flavours for us to choose from and every single one was delicious, our favourite one was the coconut cake! On the wedding day, it was stress free as she delivered and set the cake up before we even arrived! If you are looking for a birthday or wedding cake, I definitely recommend her. Thank you Rachel!

Rachel did our wedding cake on the 28-06-19 after a lovely meeting at her house my other half designed our cake and Rachel agreed to do it. Fast forward about a year later and with the temperature creeping up and up with I think a day to go I messaged Rachel to ask if she thought our buttercream layer would survive the day, after a few new design ideas she saved the day and changed the buttercream tier into something more beautiful then the original! All I can say is thank you so much Rachel so much got eaten before I could even get my hands on it More...

Where other cake makers declared they were too busy or not interested to do our bespoke wedding cake, Rachel walked through our ideas with us and delivered the perfect cake with amazing details and most importantly, the chocolate and Cointreau buttercream filling was moist and scrummy to eat!

Rachel truly made our ‘cake dreams’ come true! I cannot begin to describe just how seamless the entire process was and nothing, literally nothing was too much trouble (and we had some pretty extraordinary ideas!
). Not only did we want our wedding cake to have different colour layers, different shaped cakes and different flavours we wanted it to be covered in all sort of objects and decorations to reflect our hobbies and characters. Yikes! We simply sent our ideas to Rachel and she sketched us a drawing. The end result - the photographs say it all....
Rachel’s cakes are so personal and unusual that there seemed only one person that was suitable for the task and we are so lucky that she agreed to take on the challenge. I dread to think of the hours it must have taken to create the masterpiece.
It really was the talking point of the wedding and was beyond our wildest dreams. There was not one person who did not comment on just how amazing it looked. As for the taste, wow! We had chocolate, fruit, lemon and carrot. I don’t think anyone could decide which was the best but I think the carrot cake was quite simply the best carrot cake I have ever tasted and I know I was not alone in thinking that.
I could wax lyrical for days but if you are in any doubt of who you should ask to make your cake there is simply no choice. Rachel is a super star and her cakes are out of this world.
THANK YOU!

We tried Rachel's cakes at a wedding fair & from the taste alone, decided we wanted her to make ours. At our consultation she was patient and friendly, we gave her some ideas of what we wanted on our cake and she designed the perfect cake for us. All of our wedding guests made lovely comments about the look and taste of the cake. Would definitely recommend Rachel's cakehouse to others! More...

Rachel herself came across as a lovely lady, very calm and sincere. Rachel helped us to design the perfect cake for our wedding day.
, We decided on 5 tiers with 3 different types of cake. Chocolate mud cake with layers of chocolate ganache and vanilla butter cream, Lemon Madeira cake with layers of lemon curd and vanilla buttercream and Carrot cake with layers of lemon butter cream. All 3 of them tasted amazing! (I couldn't even choose my favourite as they all tasted amazing!) I myself as I'm sure most brides are... very particular about the fine details for my big day and it was very important to me that my wedding cake was visually perfect! Sharp edges, extra depth and a very delicate colour with intricate lace detail! I felt that the end result and my happiness was very important to Rachel and although this gave me confidence that the cake would be exactly as I wished I was still slightly apprehensive about seeing my ideas made into reality on the day! Well those feelings was totally blown away when I actually seen the cake! It was absolutely stunning! Perfect! I could not of wished for anything better! The compliments from the guests was lovely to hear and although our wedding was over a month ago I am still receiving compliments about the look and taste of the cake from our guests! Rachel made the whole experience very easy and enjoyable! I couldn't recommend her enough!
Thank you Rachel!
