Hi, I'm Hannah and I'm the owner of Handmade by Hannah Wedding and Celebration cakes. I set-up the business in 2008 after making and baking cakes as a hobby for many years. I now have over 15 years experience of creating and designing wedding cakes and working within the wedding industry.

 

As for so many people, my love of baking began as a child when I would bake with my mum in our family kitchen. Being allowed to try the remains of the cake batter and sneaking a little of the buttercream before it filled the delicious Victoria sponge cake! I continued to bake throughout my teens and twenties but life and work meant that I could not indulge my passion for baking anywhere near as much as I would have liked. A substantial spell of poor health saw me turn to baking and decorating  cakes more regularly, as much for therapeutic reasons as any other! 17 years ago I embarked on the adventure of setting up my own cake making business and haven't looked back since

​

I absolutely love my job and consider it an honour to design and make beautiful cakes for my customers. I take great pride in making my cakes taste absolutely fantastic and ensuring that they all leave my bakery looking as good as they taste. 

​

There is so much variety involved in being a cake maker but it's definitely not just about the baking and creating of the cake. I'm very much a people person and my ability to communicate well with my customers makes the process of choosing and booking a cake much more enjoyable.
