Pia did such a wonderful job with our Wedding cake exactly what we asked for! The taste of all the cakes where heavenly!
We highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Thank you Pia for creating a truly wonderful birthday cake for my mother's 90 birthday, it was stunning and truly delicious. The beautiful roses you created and the white chocolate dribble over the whole cake really made it look something fabulous. The little chocolate cupcakes were the best we had ever tasted. Would recommend anyone to have Pia create a cake for you.

We asked Vanilla Pod Bakery to make our wedding cake for our wedding at The Barn at Upcote- Pia and the team came highly recommended and we weren't disappointed!! We had a lovely cake tasting with Pia where we got to try lots of delicious flavours and discuss in detail the design of our cake. Pia and her team stayed in touch with us over the months, making sure to finalise all the details a few weeks before and even send us a sneak peak of the cake-making process which was such a nice touch. The wedding cake Pia created was absolutely perfect - it looked beautiful and tasted amazing. She even made some gluten free cupcakes for my sister so she wasn't left out on the day (and she said they tasted great too!) Thank you so much! - We came to Pia with the ambition to do our wedding cake a little differently, traditional, beautiful and elegant on the outside but yummy and quirky and so us on the inside! We ended up with a beautiful Naked cake designed by Pia with three outrageously yummy flavours: Snickers, Oreo and Classic Victoria Sandwich. We ordered the cake to serve 120 portions, even though we only had 55 guests… every last piece went! Every single guest commented how yummy the cake was, all debating the quirky flavours and laughing at how us it was! We honestly could not recommend Pia enough, she is so lovely, cool, calm and passionate about cakes! The cake tasting was a dream, and she truly bought all of our thoughts to life better than we could have ever imagined! THANK YOU THANK YOU Pia, for making us the yummiest cake of our dreams! Xxx
- Pia was fantastic from the very beginning and we knew we had found the right person to make our wedding cake from our initial meeting. The cake tasting was one of our favourite experiences of our Wedding planning and it was so hard to choose just 3 flavours from all of the delicious options available.
Pia kept in touch with us as it got closer to the date of the Wedding which was very reassuring and I felt that she really cared about making our cake. When we saw the cake for the first time in the Ballroom at Manor by the Lake we were absolutely delighted and it tasted as beautiful as it looked.
We would not hesitate to recommend Pia and The Vanilla Pod Bakery to anyone who is looking for a special occasion cake - Thank you so much.
- Pia created the most perfect two tier chocolate red velvet and vanilla buttercream wedding cake for us, which was more than we could ever have hoped for.
She also went above and beyond anything we expected, from sourcing specific foliage to dress the cake, to spending extra time at the venue building the cake, for which we are incredibly grateful.
To top it all off, Pia provided us with a box of cupcakes as a gift on the wedding day. Needless to say, they did not hang around for long!
To the detriment of our waistlines, we will now be regular customers of The Vanilla Pod Bakery!!
- Bought my girlfriend a dozen cupcakes for her birthday. Oh my goodness were they good. For £3 a cake it's a steal. Better than any I've bought commercially by a stretch. Can't wait for the next excuse to buy more. Thanks Pia.
- Just wanted to send you a HUGE thank you for the amazing job you did with our cake (and extras) i am so sorry i didnt get to see you on Friday!!! It truly looked amazing and it was almost too pretty to eat. I absolutely loved it. Everything was perfect and tasted sensational. We are literally saving that moment to eat the carrot cake top!!
