We specialise in special dietary cakes as we recognize that people with special dietary needs also want special occasion cakes.

Gluten free cakes

We are well known for our gluten free sponge and fruit cakes and will always try to help you, we feel that we understand what is required with all the special dietary cakes. Our recipe does contain almonds as this increases the shelf life of the cake however if you also have a nut allergy just let us know and we will make it nut free as well. The shelf life is not as long so we recommend you eat it within 48 hours of receiving it.

Egg Free

This is usually for one of two reasons, either an egg allergy or because the person you are making it for is a Vegan and always has egg free cakes and food. The cause of an egg allergy is generally proteins within the egg white, but some proteins in the yolk may also induce an allergic response. All sugar paste is fine for people who need an egg free cake and we can finish the cake off without using royal icing piping on the cake and so avoid egg completely.

Nut allergy

If you require a sponge this really does not affect you as our sponge cakes contain no nut anyway. We can make sure we only use sugar paste or butter cream and we never use Marzipan under the sugar paste. For a fruit cake we omit the nuts from the cake and instead of putting marzipan or almond paste on your cake we simply use a thin layer of sugar paste first to act as Marzipan , this gives a good finish to your cake and will be suitable for all.

Diabetic Cake

This cake is made in such a way as to give the diabetic customer a treat. We fill the cake with Diabetic Jam, no cream. The sponge cake or chocolate cake is made to a special diabetic recipe. However please remember the coating icing is not able to be diabetic but can easily be pealed off.
