Don’t just take my word for it – read what my happy clients have to say about my cakes.
Chris thank you for making a pink champagne bottle cake for my daughter’s 50th birthday. It is a work of art. The detail on this is outstanding. The vintage to coincide with her birth year, product of where she was born, the small print with an alcohol level making it all look so authentic. The sheen on the ‘bottle’, the edible ‘foil’ around the top, every aspect was perfect. We were almost reluctant to cut it. But we did and the cake was delicious. Leonna managed to preserve the label as a reminder of an amazing birthday cake. It made the occasion so much more special.

Chris created an incredible cake for my girlfriend’s 30th birthday. As a massive dog lover, the cake was based on her childhood cuddly toy. The attention to detail and customer service Chris provided throughout the process was excellent. Most importantly the cake tasted delicious and was eaten in about three minutes!

We worked with Chris for a special gala performance of TINA The Musical in the West End, and the resulting cake was an absolute triumph. Everyone at the event was thrilled and wanted a selfie with it – including VIP guest Prue Leith! The design was spectacular and absolutely spot-on with our branding, we were particularly impressed with the detail. Chris made the whole process incredibly smooth, and we will definitely be recommending him in future. Thank you Chris.

Chris, thank you for the amazing Lego and Spiderman-themed chocolate cake I ordered for my two nephews’ Christmas present. They absolutely loved it and were gutted when it was all gone. My brother said he couldn’t believe how delicious it was, and that normally cakes that look good on the outside aren’t as good on the inside. Your cake blew that theory out of the water.
Vicki | Essex
Thanks Chris for making the most delicious and spectacular looking cake for Charlie's christening. It went down so well with all our guests especially our 2 year old son, who loved the Paddington Bear design. It was exactly what we wanted. The flavour was amazing and so moreish, particularly with the marmalade filling. Your attention to detail and colouring on the cake was brilliant. Would absolutely recommend you for any cake making occasion!
Lorraine Mount | Balham
We contacted Chris to design and make a special jungle themed birthday cake for our son’s 1st birthday. When we explained our ideas, Chris took the brief and delivered so much more than we ever could have imagined! The cake was simply amazing – everyone was asking who we had make it and complimenting not only the design but the scrumptious flavour! Chris was extremely professional throughout and was super fast with all communications. We certainly will be recommending him to all our friends and family and will be calling upon him for many more birthdays and celebratory cakes to come!
Sarah Hogarth
The cake was brilliant! The wine bottle and grapes looked so realistic and the lemon sponge cake was absolutely delicious. My husband (who ordered the cake) said that Chris gave helpful suggestions on the design – to customise it to really make it special for me. Thanks Chris!

I work for a global PR agency and we commissioned Chris to make a hyper-realistic cake to use on our client's social media feeds, leveraging the recent 'everything is cake' trend. With an admittedly annoyingly short lead time and uncomprehensive brief from us, Chris pulled off the best cake I've ever seen and our client was absolutely thrilled. He used techniques during the project none of us even knew existed and he basically made the cake look more like a prawn ring (with packaging) than the genuine article. Absolutely phenomenal work from the nicest guy ever – we'll be recommending Chris to all of our clients, everyone we know and beyond!
Connor Jones | Weber Shandwick
Chris hit the nail on the 'head' with our cake! The brief was a strange one but he did not disappoint! It tasted absolutely delicious and has been the talk of the office all afternoon!
Nadia Flanagan
Chris designed a golf ball cake for my husband’s 50th. It looked absolutely amazing and tasted even better! Will definitely be ordering again. Thanks Chris!
Mhairi Lowry
Chris made a fantastic cake for my girlfriend’s 50th. It was three tiered, each reflecting a stage of the triathlons my girlfriend loves to compete in. Both the design and the taste of the cake was amazing. It fed 80!
Adrian Searle
We had the party for my mother's 90th birthday yesterday and the cake was an outstanding success. My mother really appreciated the Bridge theme, in fact it made her giggle! The edible cards were amazing and the cake was devoured by all, especially the younger one’s. Thank you for such a wonderful design capped off with such a fantastic cake to eat.
Paul Druckman
Chris made a fantastic cake for a birthday celebration. The detail was incredible and the flavour of the cake was delicious. Chris kept me informed all the time and responded to all my queries. If you want a cool cake, don’t forget to contact Chris. A cake to remember!
Hugh
Chris made the most amazing cake for my husband's 30th birthday. I went to him with very little idea of what I wanted – just that I wanted it to taste yummy. Chris was fab, asked lots of questions and we were able to land on a really cool concept that captured my husband's love of coffee. Chris created a great design of a coffee cup and pastry and was able to incorporate my husband's name. When it arrived the cake looked and tasted great! I would highly recommend Chris for anyone who wants a really delicious, unique, bespoke and great value cake.

I wanted to get a bespoke cake made for my other half for his birthday but had left it slightly late to organise... Thankfully Chris saved the day! I discovered Chris via Google and reached out to him through his email. He responded quickly, taking a brief and then sharing a design which was spot on with what I had pictured. It was slightly unnerving using a someone I hadn't heard of before but it was worth every penny and more. The cake was exactly how I pictured, arrived on time and the service was impeccable. I cannot recommend Chris highly enough – everything was perfect with this bespoke cake! If you're considering getting a cake made - please use Chris! Happy to give this recommendation verbally too! :) Thank you again Chris – truly talented!

Chris made a beautiful woodland themed cake for my daughter’s first birthday. I didn’t quite know what I wanted but I wanted it to be something special. He listened carefully and came up with a lovely design for my approval, with recommendations and options for the flavour and buttercream. We loved the final result and everyone at her birthday party complemented both the appearance and taste. My only regret is that I didn’t pick the cake up the day before the party so we had it for longer before we cut into it! It was delicious!
Jayne Brockton
Chris made a safari/jungle themed cake for our daughter’s first birthday. He came up with such a beautiful design and absolutely nailed it in terms of bringing the design to life. The animals were so realistic and the animal print tiers were so stunning. We had sooooo many compliments on the cake and importantly it tasted just as good as it looked! Perfectly moist sponge with delicious buttercream and jam to sandwich the layers. We will definitely be asking him to make another cake next year!
Emma Vetter
Chris was great from start to end. After an initial phone consultation I sent some imagery across for ideas and inspiration. The cake I wanted was for my wife’s Birthday; it was important to capture her love of fashion & Chanel. Chris took the time to understand my needs, he was considerate, and worked with me with re. a few tweaks to the design along the way. The end result was right on the brief, design was spot on and the taste of the cake was absolutely superb [Red Velvet]. I would also note that Chris' communication throughout the process was great. He also turned the cake around in a short timeframe without comprising taste or quality. I highly recommend using Cool Cakes By Chris, and I will use them in the future!
