We absolutely love making fondant children’s cakes here @midlandcakeco

Some bakers will only make buttercream cakes but we’ve got years of experience of working with fondant. Be it an elegant wedding cake or a colourful novelty piece, we love creating them all! #mcckids

Subtle but beautiful. We loved the hives, busy bees and spring blossoms for this wedding cake we created last year #mccwedding

Having had my spinal surgery this week I can safely say there is a very long road to recovery ahead.

I had the exact same surgery nearly 7 years ago but had a 1 year old baby to try and look after too at the time. I wasn’t allowed to pick up my baby for the next 12 months. Undoubtedly the hardest year of my life.

This time round I’m determined to take it easy. We will be very limited with what we’re able to do, I don’t want to risk making any mistakes with my health. Safe to say we will be very selective with what we take on over the next 12 months with the possibility of some changes regarding operation and the business model itself.

Thanks to all our loyal customers for their well wishes, patience and understanding.

Missing the main wedding season this year because of ill health has been a hard blow to deal with.
•
Thankfully we were able to get some beautiful weddings in before I had to suspend the business for the next few months.
•
This wedding cake was created for Emma & Mathew who’s wedding had been postponed a few times because of COVID. I was so glad they finally had their special day after all the planning and effort they’d put into their day.
•
Next year may mean we limit the number of weddings we take on. We still have some spaces though so you’re welcome to send across your enquiry if interested.

🌊Dreams of blue seas and soft sand…🌊

Another adaption of our St Ives seascape cake. This really makes me want to be on holiday🌊🐚🍦#mccadult #stives

Big isn’t always better.
•
A lot can be said for a box of our “posh” piped cupcakes being given for that special occasion.
•
Remember to keep your 👀 peeled for when the books reopen #mcc #mcccupcake

Things just need to P A U S E for a little while.
•
Unfortunately I’ve had to suspend the business. Hopefully not for too long, but long enough for me to recover properly this time.
•
2022 has really thrown me. It’s been so hard with COVID in January and two long hospital admissions and I really can’t wait for it to be over.
•
I rushed back into work too quickly after I was discharged in March, using crutches and a prop stool to work day & night to make sure I didn’t let anyone down. There’s no way round it now, I need to stop and look after myself.
•
Since the latest hospital admission at the start of June I’ve been bedridden and am now at home awaiting Spinal Surgery on 18th July. I will need some time to recover post surgery and going by last time (I’ve had all this 6 years ago) it will be at least a good few months. Of course we will keep you updated to let you know when the books will reopen.
•
In the meantime, I will hopefully be able to start posting some of the 100’s of cakes we haven’t posted and always intended too!
•
It’s not like us to do a long winded post but felt I needed to let all our lovely, loyal customers and followers know what’s going on. Thank you for your support and understanding.

Thank you for all of your lovely comments and messages, it really does mean a lot🥰

I’m out of hospital now and have had a few days recuperating so getting there!! Thankfully it looks like I will be able to continue on as normal within a few weeks and am able to honour all bookings from next week onwards.

We will try and reply to enquiries as and when for next week but please do bear with us if we’re a little slow!

Thanks again

Hello to our old and new followers 👋We hope everyone had a great Christmas and have settled into January already!
.
.
As per usual it’s been a little busy here @midlandcakeco so we’re currently behind with our email replies.
.
.
Please, please do send through a reminder if you’ve not heard back yet and it’s been over 5 working days (so sorry for this delay!) and someone will get back to you ASAP.
.
.
Needless to say we’re waaaaay behind with even thinking about posting any pics of the gorgeous cakes we’ve done, but at some point soon you’ll be inundated with our cake spam-I promise!!😂
.
.
FYI Dates had already filled up with limited spaces free for the first half of the year. Due to COVID though it’s always worth checking with us so see if there’s any space. We’ll try and do an availability post soon to give you more of a heads up and all enquiries will be dealt with in order of date received.
.
.
Thank you once again for support and here’s to another fantastic year! 🥂🍰

We loved it when Joe’s wife got in touch about a birthday cake to include all of his favourite things.

His love for his children, sports, favourite podcast and of course his beer, were all used in the design for the cake to celebrate his 30th birthday!
