🎂 Well… that was one for the books!

We were recently asked to create a cake measuring an incredible 1 metre long and ½ metre wide… and we couldn’t wait to say YES! 🤩

It was one of the biggest cakes we’ve ever made, and watching it come together from the first mix to the final decoration was an adventure all on its own. Every centimetre was handcrafted with the same care and attention we put into every cake that leaves our kitchen.

Big cakes bring big smiles, and this one certainly made an entrance! ✨

If you’ve been dreaming up a cake that people will be talking about long after the last slice is gone, we’d love to help bring it to life.

At Gourmet Cakes & Platters, no idea is too big… sometimes it’s literally a metre long! 🍰🎉

Our cake fridge is constantly changing, which means there’s always something new to tempt your taste buds. 🍰

One of this week’s favourites? Our Pistachio Basque Cheesecake. Rich, creamy, beautifully caramelised, and packed with pistachio goodness, it’s the kind of slice that disappears faster than we can keep it in the fridge!

Pop in to Gourmet Cakes & Coffee and see what’s waiting for you today. The cabinet changes often, so if you spot your favourite… don’t wait too long! 💚

The Boss is back… part-time anyway! 💛

After a little health break, she’ll be easing back into the office over the next week.

If you’re waiting on an email, quote or estimate, never fear… it’s on its way! Thank you for your patience while she took some much-needed time to recharge.

And let’s be honest… we all know she’s not very good at sitting still! 😅 So enjoy the calm while it lasts, because once she’s back full-time, she’ll be making up for lost time.

Thanks for all your support and patience. ☕🎂
