Celebrations_marbella_christma

One of our regular cake makers, Daniella from Celebrations Marbella makes Christmas cakes to order that are worth a mention.

These traditional fruit Christmas cakes really are a special festive treat.

The Xmas cakes are made to order with 3 weeks notice (up until 1st December or there abouts!) so they can be regularly "fed" with brandy and left to mature.  Delicious!

Daniella is also making mince pies to order as well as other festive cakes & goodies.

For decoration, the Christmas cakes come either traditionally decorated in Royal Icing or you can order one of our seasonal personalised Christmas cake toppers.

A mumpreneur business - edible photo cake toppers

About


Something Cakey started in 2008 by Nicky, a mother of twins.

Having young children always brings back memories of your own childhood.  One particular memory being birthdays.  Birthday cakes were always such a monumental deal, the focal point of any birthday party.  Nothing much has changed over the years and children, no matter how young, are always keen to have a totally themed birthday party with a wow birthday cake.

Unfortunately, Spanish birthdays don't seem to be the huge affair they are in the UK and therefore the choice of cakes in keeping with the latest crazes, simply isn't readily available in the supermarkets.  The options are pretty much limited to either a homemade cake or a chocolate gateau.  

Well, there are family traditions to be upheld - the birthday child's cake of choice  being one of them.  So as each birthday rolled around, we donned our aprons, dusted down the weighing scales and gave our amateur icing skills our best shot!

Baking a cake is easy enough. A plain sponge cake is pretty foolproof or it's easy to cheat and buy from a supermarket or bakery but it's trying to ice a novelty cake so that it even vaguely resemble that beloved children's character that sets the stress levels soaring.

Iggle Piggle, Nemo and Dory, now they were relatively easy all things considering.   But when the favourites requested started to be more challenging like Buzz Lightyear, Upsy Daisy or Power Rangers, it was time for a new tactic...

And so the idea of Something Cakey was born.   Personalised edible cake toppers.  Any picture, any design you want.  And with a personalised message too.  The perfect solution for that perfect birthday cake!

Our first cake topper, Toy Story, was met with absolute delight from the children. An instant hit...the adult guests were equally impressed.   And so the idea snowballed into a thriving, successful "mumpreneur" business.

We realised pretty quickly that our edible cake toppers weren't just for kids as the next order was for a Steven Gerrard cake topper, for a lady whose husband is a big Liverpool fan.   

So we hit the ground running and haven’t looked back.
