Customer Love: Heartfelt Reviews from Happy Couples
One of my favourite parts of what I do is hearing from my customers after they have seen their cake. The joy and excitement that comes through in their messages mean the world to me and truly fuel my passion for cake design. Here are a few of my favorite reviews that capture the magic of those special moments. Enjoy!


Wow—where do we even begin?
We booked Cakes of Curiosity for our wedding cake after meeting Melanie at a Wedding Fair as we knew there would be no one better for our special day and Melanie proved us right in every possible way.
Every single tier looked absolutely stunning and tasted even better than we could have imagined. Melanie even perfectly catered to our gluten free guest by creating him his own mini cake which tasted just as amazing as the main event!
She made the whole process feel so special and the time, care and attention to detail Melanie puts into her work is unmatched—we and all our guests were blown away that the cake was handmade. Each sugar flower and decoration was impeccably made, so perfectly delicate but so realistic looking!
What stood out even more was Melanie’s professionalism and support in the lead-up to the wedding. From our initial consultation and answering all our questions, to helping us decide on flavours and designing a cake that tied in perfectly with our theme — she went above and beyond to make everything stress-free.
Choosing Melanie as our cake maker was without a doubt one of the very best decisions we made for the entire wedding.
We feel so blessed to have found her talent and we’re beyond grateful for everything she did to make our day so beautiful (and delicious!).
If you’re considering booking Melanie for your wedding cake then definitely do it - you will not regret it!

"I met Melanie at a wedding fair, her cakes looked out of this world and tasted amazing! I knew I wanted to book her to
make our wedding cake in that moment. Melanie was so helpful and on the ball with everything, we had three different flavours which were all so delicious! Our guests could not stop raving about how gorgeous and tasty the cake was. I would 100%
recommend her "
Esther & Dan

"We just wanted to reach out and say a massive thank you for the
cake, and the entire process spent with you for our wedding day! Initially the cake was something we had put to the back of our mind and something neither of us thought much about... HOW WRONG WE BOTH WERE! I am so glad we did a complete U-turn and
reached out to you instead! The whole process from initial contact to the design meeting and then the amazing cake you created, was all so lovely and you made our scattered ideas into an incredible work of art that stood proudly
all day. And then the flavour! Having worked in weddings for a long time I've seen many wedding cakes and normally you pick one, it either looks
good or tastes good. You are definitely the exception to this, not only did your design
match the colours of the day and stand proudly, it tasted incredible. Thankfully we asked the venue to save us some of each tier which
we have sliced and frozen to extend the enjoyment!
Thank you so much again."
Ella and George

Honestly, I don’t even know where to start!
We first approached Melanie after being let down by the person who was originally supposed to make our wedding cake, and I was STRESSED. But literally within one phone call with Melanie, all of those worries disappeared and I knew our cake was in safe hands.
From the cake consultation, to all the emails back and forth, to actually seeing (and tasting!) our cake on the wedding day, everything was just amazing. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble and Melanie completely understood what we wanted.
And the actual cake… WOW.
It looked absolutely incredible. It was everything we had pictured and more, and I genuinely couldn’t stop looking at it when I first saw it! The amount of detail that went into it was insane.
But obviously a wedding cake can’t just look good, and OH MY GOD did it taste good too 💜 Every flavour was absolutely gorgeous and we had so many compliments from our guests about it.
After being let down originally, I was so worried about the cake, but looking back I genuinely think it worked out for the best because we ended up with something better than we could ever have imagined.
I honestly cannot recommend Melanie enough. From that very first phone call right through to our wedding day, she was absolutely amazing and gave us a wedding cake we’ll never forget.
Thank you so, so much Melanie, for making such a huge part of our day so perfect 💜💜

Our wedding cake from Cakes of Curiosity was an absolute showstopper and a true work of art at our wedding at King’s Chapel in Old Amersham.
From the outset, it was clear that we were working with a genuine expert. The design process felt thoughtful, creative, and completely bespoke, resulting in a cake that was both strikingly modern and beautifully elegant.
The finished cake was extraordinary. Each tier was distinct yet perfectly balanced, creating a dramatic and sophisticated vertical design. The geometric white base tier gave a clean, architectural foundation, topped by a sleek black tier and a marbled grey tier that added depth and texture. The crowning gold cylinder tier brought a sense of luxury and theatre, tying the whole design together effortlessly.
The handcrafted floral detailing was simply stunning. Soft ivory roses cascaded down the cake, intertwined with delicate gold leaves, creating movement and elegance without overwhelming the design. It complemented the setting of King’s Chapel perfectly and became a real focal point for our guests, many of whom stopped to admire it before we even cut the cake.
As beautiful as it looked, the cake tasted even better. We chose chocolate orange, red velvet, and carrot, and each flavour was exceptional. Every tier was moist, rich, and perfectly balanced. Our guests are still talking about it, with several commenting that it was genuinely better than cakes they’ve enjoyed at the Savoy. That level of praise speaks volumes.
What truly sets Cakes of Curiosity apart is that there is no compromise between appearance and flavour. This was not just a beautiful cake for photographs; it was a luxurious, indulgent experience from the first bite to the last.
If you are looking for a wedding cake designer who combines artistic vision, technical skill, and truly outstanding flavour, we cannot recommend Cakes of Curiosity highly enough. This is wedding cake design and craftsmanship at the very highest level.

The cake Melanie made for our wedding back in June was absolutely perfect. She really took the time to listen to what we wanted and offered thoughtful suggestions to help bring our ideas to life while keeping everything within budget. Her communication and attention to detail made the whole process enjoyable, and she matched our colour scheme perfectly.
We chose sugar flowers for decoration, and we’re so glad we did – they looked absolutely incredible. Melanie has such a talent for making them look so realistic, and it’s lovely to have them as a keepsake from the day. The beautiful wooden initials on top were the perfect finishing touch, and of course, the cake tasted amazing! We couldn’t have been happier and would recommend Melanie to anyone planning their wedding.

After tasting some samples at a wedding fair my husband was obsessed. And he was absolutely right, our wedding cake was one of the most talked about parts of our big day!
Not only are Melanie’s cakes delicious, she took the time to ensure all our dietary requirements were catered for and helped us design our perfect cake.
Our wedding day was perfect, and a huge part of it was because of Cakes of Curiosity!

I chose Melanie to make my wedding cake, based upon the recommendation of a good friend who had tried one of her cakes at a wedding he was the photographer at.
I met with Melanie for a consultation initially several months before the day to discuss the design I would like for my cake, including colour and details on the icing, flower themes as well as flavours.
She gave me a beautiful cake box to take away with five of her most popular cake flavours - raspberry and white chocolate, lemon, carrot cake, chocolate and red velvet. Each one delicious! It helped me decide on the flavours I wanted for the day.
I chose white chocolate and raspberry, lemon and red velvet for a 3 tier cake to feed around 90 guests.
I wanted a light pink and white themed cake in line with my wedding colour scheme and peonies and roses I had. The cake was beautifully created and exactly what I had wanted. It made a real statement in the room during the wedding reception and topped off the day when it came to cutting the cake in the evening.
The guests enjoyed the flavours including my husband and I. Baking is a hobby I am passionate about and appreciate well made cakes, to which cakes of curiosity delivered exceptionally well with.
I would highly recommend Melanie for designing and creating your dream wedding cake. She was professional, accommodating and delivered the perfect cake.
