I have been baking for as long as I can remember, and for several years now, my passion for making cakes and creating sugar flowers has become more than just a hobby. Friends started asking me to make a cake for a special occasion – a Christening, a family wedding, or a special anniversary and, after having received fabulous reviews, I decided to turn this much-loved hobby into a business.
Choosing a business name was easy – my favourite flower has always been the rose. When I realised that I could create this exquisite flower in sugar, and that it actually appeared real, my mind was made up – it had to be ‘Sugar Rose Cakes’.
Making sugar flowers and creating bespoke cakes is a unique skill which not only requires significant time and effort, but considerable attention to detail. As such, I treat every commission as an individual project – I spend hours researching designs, and experimenting with flavours until I am satisfied with the result.
It is so often the case that a cake may look amazing, but turns out to be dry or tastes disappointing. My mission with every cake is to ensure that it has a unique design, is full of flavour, and that it will be delivered as fresh as can be.
