“I started making wedding and celebration cakes when my own wedding cake (which I didn’t make!), was an absolute disaster. You couldn’t cut through the icing and when we finally broke through it, the two sponge tiers were both mouldy.

I never wanted a bride to go through the disappointment I felt on what was supposed to be one of the most important days of my life. That was back in 1980 and I still take great pride in seeing the joy people get from my cakes on their special day.”
