Hands down the best cake we ever had! Helen is an exceptional and a very creative chef. Her cake was a single biggest centrepiece of a birthday party. It was a great pleasure to meet her and we will most definitely order cakes from her in the future. More...

I got in touch about a bespoke Star Wars themed, egg-free cake, for my sister's 40th birthday and the cake did not disappoint. The thought and care put into the cake exceeded my expectations. Even the lights were a lovely surprise! Highly recommend using The Vanilla Bird Cake Company - I will definitely be using them again. More...

Amazing cake! Helen was so helpful in making a surprise cake for my dad’s birthday in May. From our first phone call, she was so helpful and was excited by the idea of making dad’s cake - a Madeira sponge with white and milk chocolate ganache, dark chocolate drizzle, topped with all of his favourites biscuits on the top. Yummy! Very reasonably priced, especially as I called her a month before. His birthday was on my wedding day, so we collected it the day before, beautifully boxed so it could travel down to Surrey. His face was a delight when we all sang him Happy Birthday during the speeches and out came the cake with a sparkler in the middle! I cannot recommend Helen enough, wonderful friendly service and a bespoke creation of a cake of your choice. The cake was a work of art and thoroughly enjoyed by dad and our guests! Thank you so much :-) More...

Helen's an expert in her craft. She made an amazing flower and garden cake for my Mum's 80th. It is stunning. So lovely that we've decided not to cut it for a few days so we can all admire it's beauty, as it's just too pretty to cut. So glad I found you Helen, you deserve 5 stars for putting a huge smile on Mum's face for her birthday. More...

Helen's creativity is first-class and my son's birthday cake was much better than the idea in my head! Helen came up with lots of ideas for me to choose from. It was a great service end to end.
