The Designer
Every Cake Begins at My Worktable
Every Thistleberry cake is personally designed and created from the first conversation to the final detail. I take on a limited number of commissions so that each celebration receives the attention it deserves.
Years of wedding and luxury celebration work sit behind every design — an eye for proportion, a love of colour, and the craftsmanship to make ambitious ideas stand beautifully on the day.

The Thistleberry Experience
How a commission comes together
- 01
Tell Us About Your Celebration
Share the occasion, date, number of guests and any initial ideas — however formed or unformed they are.
- 02
Your Cake Is Designed
A bespoke concept is developed around the celebration, the setting and the way you want the day to feel.
- 03
Handcrafted for Your Day
The cake is made entirely by hand and prepared for collection, or delivered and set up professionally where applicable.
Milestone Celebrations
Some Birthdays Deserve More Than Just a Cake.
A 40th, a 60th, an 80th, an anniversary — the cake becomes part of the room, part of the photographs, and part of what everyone remembers about the night.
