My Story

Hi, I'm Lauren, a custom fondant cake specialist based in Preston

I'm the maker behind Something Sweet, specialising in hand-sculpted fondant work: realistic animals and fantasy scenes as well as clean, elegant wedding tiers. Every design starts with your idea, not a catalogue, and every order gets its own design sketch before I bake a single cake.

No templates and no shortcuts. Every bake is made with high-quality ingredients and finished by hand, from wedding cakes to birthday cakes, hand-iced biscuits and cupcakes.

How It Works

From idea to cake day

01

Tell Me Your Idea

Get in touch with your occasion, date and inspiration. A photo, a theme or a colour palette is enough to start.

02

Design Sketch & Flavour

You'll get a design sketch to approve and a flavour list to choose from, so there are no surprises before I bake.

03

Hand-Sculpted to Order

Every cake is baked, iced and sculpted by hand. Nothing off the shelf, nothing rushed.

04

Cake Day

Your cake is finished and ready to collect in time for your day.

"I've had 3 cakes made by Something Sweet and currently awaiting my 4th. I would not buy or order a cake from anywhere else. Lauren is so talented. She tailors your design ideas into the most amazing cakes. The design is always perfect with the figures exactly like the photo you send her."
