Hello

As a child I loved to bake, however, my passion for baking really started when I decided to make a cupcake tower for my own wedding in 2011. I chose 4 different flavours and got to work testing and perfecting my recipes... as if I didn't have enough to do the day before my wedding. Baking and decorating 150 cupcakes was a challenge and I had no idea at that time, that this would set me off on a creative journey.

I work part time as a secondary school teacher and have always made cakes for family and friends in my spare time. My boys always love to push me creatively and design their own show stopping birthday cakes for me to make. This led me to snapping photos and sharing my bakes on social media. After many years I have honed my recipes and mastered the art of decorating.

I always wondered if I could build a success business making cakes so in 2024 I made the decision to give it a go and registered Shadz Cakes as a business.

I bake from home in my kitchen, and make custom cakes to order. I usually make buttercream cakes and love to work with wafer paper to create unique, one of a kind designs.
I make wedding cakes, birthday cakes, cupcakes, cakes for all occasions as well as the most incredibly tasty, stuffed cookies. So if you like my designs and love to eat deliciously moist and flavourful cakes and cookies, you have come to the right place.
