Distance is no barrier when it comes to celebrating the people you love. 💝

Jacqui wasn’t able to travel to be with her family for her dad Bob’s birthday, but she was determined to make sure he felt celebrated. From afar, she organised a custom cake and delivery, trusting me to bring her vision to life.

The process was simple because Jacqui was wonderful to work with—she answered my questions, communicated clearly what she wanted, shared the special message for the cake, and then trusted my creativity to take care of the rest. Together, we created something meaningful for Bob’s special day.

Whether you’re just around the corner or on the other side of the country, I provide the same personalised service to every customer. If you’re unsure what you need, you’re always welcome to enquire about your cake order and we can discuss whether a Cake Consultation would be beneficial. And if you’re choosing from my Ready To Order Cake range, no consultation is required—simply order and leave the baking to me!

Making celebrations special, no matter the distance. 🎂✨

🎣🎉 40th Birthday celebrations done right! 🎉🎣

May has been an incredible month filled with colourful custom cakes for both new and loyal customers, and Ben's 40th birthday cake was no exception!

Shanen was an absolute delight to collaborate with from the very beginning. We met in person for a Cake Consultation to discuss all the details, and before long, the plans were coming together beautifully. Shanen emailed through the photo she wanted featured on top of the cake, which I then sent to the talented Donna from Deezee Designs to work her magic and create the edible image.

For maximum impact at Ben's celebration, we chose a single-layer A3-sized cake designed to serve around 50 guests. The fishing and ocean theme came to life with textured waves around the sides of the cake, while Shanen arranged a personalised cake topper to complete the design.

Inside was my light Chocolate Fudge Cake, covered in Vanilla American Icing. This style of icing is ideal for edible image cakes as it provides a smooth finish, remains stable, and doesn't require refrigeration—perfect for party celebrations!

Thank you, Shanen, for your wonderful review and for trusting me to create such a special cake for Ben's milestone birthday. It truly is the little details that make every cake unique and meaningful.

If you're dreaming of a personalised cake for your next special occasion, it all begins with a Cake Consultation and enquiry through my website. Together, we'll collaborate to bring your cake dreams to life! ✨🎂

✨ A Cake Filled with Love, Memories & 62 Years Together ✨

Colour is such an important part of our lives. It tells stories, sparks memories, and reminds us of the people we love. One of my greatest joys is creating cakes that capture those special connections.

A few years ago, Hans asked me to create a brightly coloured cake covered in roses—Sarena's favourite flower—for her 80th birthday. The cake was adorned in her favourite colours and reflected the vibrant, beautiful person she was.

Sadly, Sarena has since passed away, and this ANZAC Day, 25th April 2026, marked Hans' first wedding anniversary without her by his side.

Wanting to honour their remarkable 62 years of marriage, Hans asked me to create a smaller version of Sarena's birthday cake. A cake filled with the same bright colours and beautiful roses she loved so much.

When I gave Hans the cake at the Good Food Store, we were both doing our best to hold back the tears. No words needed to be exchanged. The emotion of the moment said everything that needed to be said. Hugs were definitely in order. ❤️

A few days later, I saw Hans again and he told me that the cake tasted even better than it looked. Those words meant the world to me because this cake was never just about butter, sugar, flowers and colour. It was about celebrating a lifetime of love, treasured memories, and a woman who will always hold a special place in his heart.

Moments like these remind me that cakes aren't only for grand celebrations. Sometimes they're for quiet remembrance. Sometimes they're for honouring a loved one. Sometimes they're simply a way to say, "I remember."

No matter what your special occasion is—or how small it may seem—I am always happy to work with you to create something meaningful. The key is collaboration and trust. I will always have your best interests at heart and will do everything I can to bring your vision to life.

If you'd like to discuss a cake for your next celebration, remembrance, milestone, or special moment, I'd love to hear from you.

✨🦋 Gigi’s Beautiful 7th Birthday Cake 🦋✨

Sometimes creating a special cake takes a village, and Gigi’s gorgeous 7th birthday cake was the perfect example of how collaboration can make magic happen! 💕

Kerry contacted me to create a beautiful birthday cake for her daughter’s celebration. It was a particularly busy week in the kitchen, so we worked together to bring Gigi’s dream cake to life.

Kerry organised the stunning fresh flowers from Rosita Floral Service and sourced the beautiful butterflies she wanted incorporated into the design, while I baked four luscious layers of Vanilla Butter Cake filled with my signature Raspberry “Jam” and silky pink WCIMBC. 🌸✨

Kerry delivered all the floral elements to me so I could complete the decorating, and the finished cake was then delivered to Pacific Palms Bowling Club ready for Gigi’s birthday dinner the following evening.

The best part? Hearing how much everyone enjoyed it! 💖

“The cake was AMAZING! Nothing went to waste; we had all the kids in the bowlo lining up for a piece. And two elderly couples were out for dinner, so I shared the cake with them, they said it was delicious. That jam was out of this world! Thank you so much again xx”

Messages like this make my heart so happy. Knowing that every last crumb was enjoyed and shared with others is what cake is all about. 🎂💕

Collaboration is key for every cake, but especially for extravagant short-notice creations. Thank you, Kerry, for trusting me to be part of Gigi’s special day and for helping make it all come together so beautifully.

Happy 7th Birthday, Gigi! 🎉🦋💗

✨ Not every occasion requires an Extraordinarily Extravagant Cake… sometimes you simply want your favourite cake to share with the people you love most. ✨

One of the things I love most about my Ready To Order Cakes is being able to create beautiful cakes that feel personal, special and delicious without all the fuss.

Madonna used to enjoy my Hummingbird Cake at Country Palings Petals & Pots Cafe & Gifts Green Point and was so excited to discover she could order exactly what she wanted from my Ready To Order List for her birthday! 🎂 Instead of edible flowers, we created beautiful dehydrated pineapple flowers for a tropical touch that suited the cake perfectly. 🍍✨

Mika chose a Victoria-Style Sponge inspired by his mum’s favourite colours — a soft yellow glaze with delicate purple fondant flowers. Simple, elegant and quietly beautiful without needing all the extra frills. 💛💜

Thank you so much to Madonna and Mika for your beautiful reviews and for allowing me to be part of your special birthdays. It truly means the world to me when my cakes become part of your celebrations.

And honestly… with this wet weather, doesn’t it feel like perfect cake-eating weather? ☔🍰

If you’re craving something delicious, my treats are also available at the Good Food Store in Smiths Lake, or you can browse and order directly from my Ready To Order range here: https://www.thecakequeen.com.au/ready-to-order.

🍺 30 years calls for a cake that looks good enough to crack open! 🎉

Stacey contacted me to create a special cake for Dylan’s 30th birthday and what better way to celebrate than with a Tooheys New beer can cake! 🍻

This cake featured layers of Vanilla Butter Cake and Chocolate Butter Cake, layered and covered in Chocolate American Icing then iced with handpainted fondant and a Tooheys New label beautifully created by the incredibly talented Donna from Deezee Designs.

It’s hard to capture all the little details in photos, but the goal was to make this cake look as close to a real beer can as possible while also working within the allocated budget. And this is exactly why talking openly about budget during a cake collaboration is so important. ✨

Knowing what you’d like to spend helps me guide you through what’s possible, where to focus the details and how we can bring your cake vision to life in the best way possible. Sometimes cake dreams and budgets line up perfectly, sometimes we tweak the design a little…either way, my job is to help you make an informed decision and then work my magic. 🎂

All of this is discussed during your Cake Consultation so we can create something amazing together. Bookings at https://www.thecakequeen.com.au

And the best part? Hearing how much everyone loved it! 💛

From Stacey:
“Loved the cake. He thought it was amazing! So many people did. Thanks again for everything.”

Happy 30th Birthday Dylan! 🍻🎉

There’s something so special about creating children’s birthday cakes… the bright colours, the fun themes, the excitement in their little faces when they see their dream cake come to life! ✨🎂💙🧡

For Hugo’s 3rd Birthday, Lauren asked me to create a fun-filled Blippi cake to celebrate her adventurous little boy. Hugo originally wanted a rainbow cake 🌈 but with a smaller party size, we decided together that a delicious Vanilla Butter Cake with the iconic bright orange and blue Blippi colours would be the perfect fit instead.

I always love finding creative ways to make every cake extra special, so while decorating, I coloured one layer orange and the other blue inside the cake too! 🧡💙 And because I had just enough cake mix and silky WCIMBC left over, I created 3 matching cupcakes as well. I absolutely love it when the stars align perfectly like that! 🧁✨

One of my greatest joys is collaborating with my clients to create cakes that not only suit their celebration beautifully, but sometimes turn out even better than imagined. Every cake begins with a conversation, ideas shared, inspiration explored, and together we create something truly memorable.

If you’re dreaming of a custom cake for your special celebration, it all begins with a Cake Consultation through thecakequeen.com.au ✨

Thank you so much, Lauren, for your beautiful review & photo and for trusting me to be part of Hugo’s special day. I can’t wait for more collaborations together! 💕
