Amazing time in the reindeer workshop. Toni was very patient and fun and day just whizzed by. If anyone gets a chance to attend one of her tutorials you’ll be pleased you did.

Toni is absolutely wonderful, her cakes are gorgeous and she's just so lovely! We had cupcakes and a single tier to cut for our wedding and every single flavour was incredible. We had chocolate orange, vanilla, cherry bakewell, blackberry & elderflower, red velvet, and salted caramel and we couldn't pick a favourite they were all so tasty 😋 I would highly recommend Red Velvet Bakery! 💖 Mr & Mrs Wright xxxx 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. I know we’ve said it before but we don't think this review quite covers just how awesome we think you and your cakes are! Mr & Mrs Butlin More...

Toni is fantastic! From the moment we met her at a wedding fayre, up to the day of our wedding, she was just a delight! Our two tier, square wedding cake tasted amazing, and looked so beautiful with the addition of an acrylic box, full of beautiful artificial flowers and fairy lights.

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. We wanted to say a huge thank you so much to Red Velvet Bakery for making our day so special and our cake so amazing!!! Thank you so much Toni. More...

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.

Red Velvet Bakery created the wedding cake of our dreams. We had a particular theme we wanted (Disney and Harry Potter) and Toni worked closely with us to ensure it fit our theme but wasn’t over the top. Communication was absolutely fantastic all the way through the booking thing process, even when I requested last minute changes. We met Toni at a wedding fayre and after tasting her cakes, we knew there was no one else we wanted. It is the most delicious cake you will ever eat. She has a fantastic range of flavours to choose from as well. We opted for vanilla, chocolate fudge and lemon and raspberry. She also made us cookie wedding favours which were amazing! She is an absolute pleasure and a joy to work with. Don’t walk, RUN to book Toni if you are looking for an amazing bespoke wedding cake. More...

What can I say other than I wouldn't suggest anyone else for your wedding/birthdays in fact any cake making really! Right from the start Toni took on my design (which other cake makers wouldn't) and made my wedding cake everything I wanted it to be and more. She is friendly, bubbly, warm and welcoming from the moment you speak to her. The cake tasting was amazing (my husband still talks about it!) the communications we're brilliant (we postponed a few times due to Covid) and right to delivery and set up it was brill! Now to the taste of the cake... we had red velvet and another tier of rum and ginger. The guests loved it, they ate it at the wedding and took some home! They said it was the best wedding cake they had eaten! Thank you so much! More...

Toni provided a two tier cake plus a few dozen cupcakes for our ~60 guest wedding this month, all delivered to the venue on the morning of our big day. The cake was absolutely stunning, exactly as we had agreed, and the cupcakes were beautifully decorated. We got a bit excited during the tasting and wanted to have several different flavours, all of which Toni accommodated without issue. Our guests were very complimentary about both the appearance and, crucially, the taste of the cakes! Even days after the event, the leftover cake is still delicious. We will most certainly be back for more in future, thank you Toni! More...

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
