About Cakey Cakes
“I feel the greatest connection to friends and family when they all can have a piece of cake and share the moment.”
The Problem We See Every Day
Too often, people arranging a major celebration settle for a beautiful but generic cake. They worry about satisfying everyone's taste buds, and the guest of honour ends up with a dessert that doesn't truly reflect who they are. They want to make someone feel deeply seen, but the standard bakery menu just doesn't offer that level of personalisation.
The Solution I Created
I founded Cakey Cakes because I believe your cake should be as unique as your story. I'm Gianna, a professionally qualified chef with over 17 years of industry experience (including training at Nobu). As a pastry chef, I use this expertise not just to bake, but to engineer edible memories. I seek out the inside jokes, the favourite flavours, and the unique passions (like a love for Heinz mayonnaise) that make a person them.
The Cakey Cakes Approach
I believe everyone should be able to say, ‘Yes to the cake’. So, as well as the usual fully loaded cake flavours, I’ve worked hard to refine my recipes to make them fully inclusive. My cakes can be deliciously gluten, egg, nut and dairy-free. I even make the gluten-free flour from scratch.
Through testing, tasting, tinkering, each cake is made from the finest, natural ingredients inspired by your design. My experience with such incredible, talented chefs taught me the value of baking from scratch with seasonal local produce. I don't use packet mixes or artificial preservatives. → How that helps
The Unforgettable Result
When you work with me, you're not just ordering a cake; you're commissioning a moment. We partner to create a design that guarantees that reaction: the one where everyone says, "This is so them!" Skip the stress and compromise. Let's design a cake that ensures your celebration is the centrepiece everyone remembers for all the right reasons.

Cake Size Faq
Plan 60 to 75 serves for a three-course dinner using coffee portions, or 85 to 100 if cake is the dessert.
Dessert is about 1" x 2" x 4". Coffee is about 1" x 2" x 2" which is roughly half the height and gives about twice the number of serves.
Celebration tiers are about 4" tall. Wedding tiers are about 5" to 6" tall, so the same diameter wedding cake serves more people.
About 24 dessert or 48 coffee serves, based on a 4" tall tier.
For dessert-size slices, a single 11" cake gives about 50 dessert serves or 100 coffee serves.
For coffee-size slices after a meal, a two-tier 5" + 7" works well at about 52 coffee serves.
Yes. Every cake includes a printed cutting and care guide.
Only if you want every child served. Otherwise reduce the expected uptake slightly.
