Hey, I’m Hester.

I create bespoke buttercream wedding cakes, as well as celebration cakes and seasonal & corporate bakes, all made from my kitchen in Alfold, Surrey.

Every cake I make is baked to order using fresh, high-quality ingredients, with flavours that are carefully developed to taste just as good as they look.

My personal favourites? Lemon & white chocolate and banana & Biscoff - although it’s hard to choose!

Whether you’re planning your wedding, celebrating a birthday, welcoming a new baby or simply gathering your favourite people together, I love helping bring those moments to life through cake.

I like to describe myself as a baker rather than a cake artist.

Of course a cake should look beautiful, especially for a wedding, but for me the real magic is in the bake itself - the flavour, the texture, the moment someone takes a bite and goes back for another.

Hester created the most beautiful and divine tasting cake for our wedding. The cake design - complete with pressed edible flowers - was simply stunning and all the guests were in awe of how beautiful it looked.

We received so many comments on how tasty it all was; there was no cake left by the end of the evening, testament to how much it was enjoyed!!”
