Choosing the Perfect Cake Size
Determining the size of the cake is another key decision tied closely to the number of guests. For intimate gatherings, a small 6-inch cake might suffice, serving approximately 8-10 people. If you’re hosting a larger party, consider opting for a tiered cake to make a statement as well as cater to more guests. A standard two-tier cake typically serves around 30-40 people. For even larger events, a three-tier or a grand four-tier cake can become the highlight of your celebration, serving 75 or over 100 guests respectively. It’s always better to have a bit more cake than you think you might need; leftover slices never go to waste!

What to Look For in a Cake Shop
When we’re on the hunt for an outstanding cake shop, we focus on a few key attributes. Experience is paramount; we aim for bakers who have a rich history of crafting cakes. It’s not just the years, though—vision and the ability to translate ideas into an edible form are just as vital. We seek out shops where cakes are made to order and freshly baked, guaranteeing both taste and personalisation.
Quality can often be gauged by looking at a shop’s portfolio, which can typically be found on their Instagram or other online galleries. These visuals allow us to see if their style matches our expectations. It’s about striking that balance between aesthetics and flavour. The expertise of the bakers comes through their handling of details and finishes on each cake, which should be nothing short of exquisite.
Reading Reviews and Testimonials
We don’t underestimate the power of reviews and testimonials. Honest feedback from previous customers gives us invaluable insight into the level of service and product satisfaction. It’s not just star ratings; we read through comments to understand the experiences others have had. We’re looking for consistency in excellence, with mentions of both product and service quality.
Online platforms are an excellent place to start, but we also consider word-of-mouth recommendations. Social proof through customer stories can highlight a cake maker’s ability to deliver on promises, their responsiveness, and overall reliability. When a cake shop receives heartfelt praise regularly, it’s a strong marker of their credibility and reputation in the market.
