How much do cakes cost?

One of the first questions couples and families ask me is: “How much do cakes cost?” The honest answer is that it depends on size, style and level of decoration.

 

As a guide:

 

  • An 8" buttercream cake with a simple design starts from £105-£115.
     

  • The same size cake with lots of intricate detail will cost more, reflecting the time and skill involved.
     

  • Multi-tier cakes also include extra costs for stacking and safe internal support.
     

This page gives you a transparent guide to my base prices, so you know what to expect when planning your wedding or celebration cake.
