Dear Sarah, Thank you so much for making us the most beautiful cake, it really was absolutely perfect and so many of our guests commented on how pretty it was. And then they cut it!! We were going to only cut half of each layer but ended up having to cut more because every morsel was gone within an hour. People were raving about how light and delicious it was. We have a little bit left for ourselves that we're really going to enjoy this week. Thank you again so so much

Sarah was extremely professional, she made our cake exactly as we had requested. It was stunning to look at & SO tasty!
We opted for a 3 tier buttercream finish cake, one layer was red velvet, another jam & cream sponge & a gorgeous caramel swirl cake. The guests were raving about it!
Thank you so so much, would highly recommend!

We couldn't recommend this lovely lady enough. The wedding cake was amazing! We had a 3 tier wedding cake with 'Lovely lemon', chocolate with Baileys cream and Victoria Sponge. All of the wedding guests commented on how lovely the cake was. You will not be disappointed if you order from Miscellany Cakes.

We ordered our wedding cake from Sarah in Miscellany Cakes and we were so delighted we did. Our wedding cake was both beautiful to look at and so tasty. Sarah worked with us on flavours and we went with a 3 tiered cake with 3 flavours of lemon, red velvet and coconut & lime (my favourite!!). All flavours were divine and enjoyed by all. Sarah was brilliant to work with and nothing was any trouble. Would highly recommend Sarah to any future wedding couple. She really has such a talent and gift in baking.

Just a quick note to express our sincere delight with the wedding cake. You excelled and did a great job. The presentation / set up was a pleasure to look at. The cake colour and the sugar rose were a work of art.
The lime and coconut combination was perfect and went down a treat.
Response from Miscellany Cakes
I’m thrilled to hear that and really appreciate you taking the time to let me know.
Hope you had a wonderful wedding day : )

From start to finish Sarah was a joy to work with. She really listened to what we were looking for and worked with us to stay within our budget. Her cakes are simply gorgeous! It was very difficult to choose from the taster box she provided as all flavours were beautiful. We really enjoyed the experience. We settled with red velvet and a very simple style cake but from being in to her shop, anything is possible ! She really is amazing at what she does.

I had given up on the hope of having a gluten free wedding cake when I found Miscellany Cakes. Sarah created the wedding cake of dreams and was a delight to work with. She made the process incredibly simple and took care of everything even delivering the cake to our venue herself, assembling it and decorating it on site on the day. It was perfect - the cake itself was one of the best I have ever tasted (guests confirmed you would never have known it was gluten free!) and the decoration was stunning. We can't recommend Sarah enough!
Response from Miscellany Cakes
Aw thanks a million for this amazing review! It was my pleasure to make your gluten free wedding cake and after our long distance phone calls and emails, I loved our serendipitous meeting on the day!
All the best, Sarah

Thank you for all your help with planning and ordering the cake for our wedding and for your flexibility with Covid changes etc. It suited our colour scheme and incorporated our requested design very accurately and it was obvious a lot of time and effort went into the finer details. It looked lovely and tasted delicious.

Sarah from Miscellany Cakes made our cake when we got married in early 2021. It was a two-tier vanilla chocolate swirl and fruit cake with a semi-naked buttercream finish. The cake was absolutely delicious and everyone who tasted it commented on how much they liked it. The cake was so well-made with the perfect balance of flavours. Sarah?s attention to detail was excellent and she created the cake in exactly the style we wanted, with presentation being fabulous as well. Our wedding was a small wedding during the pandemic which involved some changes in our plans at the last minute. Sarah was so professional and easy to deal with, and very flexible with our new plans. We would highly recommend her!
Response from Miscellany Cakes
Thank you so much Aoife, what a glowing review! It was a pleasure for me to play a part in your special day and I so admired how you forged ahead with your wedding plans in spite of the challenges of the pandemic at that time!
