Cupcakes piped this morning, boxed for your party

Today's flavours and what is in them
Read the whole row before you choose. If anything in the table is unclear, ask at the counter or call before you order.
| Flavour | Contains | Each |
|---|---|---|
| Vanilla bean | Wheat (gluten), eggs, milk | $3.50 |
| Double chocolate | Wheat (gluten), eggs, milk, soya | $3.75 |
| Salted caramel | Wheat (gluten), eggs, milk | $3.75 |
| Lemon curd | Wheat (gluten), eggs, milk | $3.50 |
| Red velvet | Wheat (gluten), eggs, milk | $3.75 |
| Peanut butter and jam | Peanuts, wheat (gluten), eggs, milk, soya | $4 |
| Pistachio and rose | Pistachios (tree nuts), wheat (gluten), eggs, milk | $4 |
| Vegan chocolate | Wheat (gluten), soya; made without eggs or milk | $3.75 |
Every cupcake is baked and decorated in one small kitchen that also handles peanuts, tree nuts, sesame and soya, so traces of any of them may be in any flavour. We cannot make a cupcake safe for someone with a severe allergy, and allergen labelling rules differ by country, so always ask before ordering for someone at risk.

Price on enquiry
EnquireDelivery within 5 km is priced at checkout, and picking up from the shop adds nothing. Boxes travel flat on the floor of the car, never on a seat.
Frosting colours for party boxes
Pick up to three colours for a birthday or office box. They are mixed with food colouring gels, and the deepest shades can tint lips for an hour or two.
RoseSoft pink, the one asked for most
RaspberryDeep pink, piped as a swirl or a rosette
MintPale green, popular for baby showers
SkyLight blue, finished with white stars
LavenderPale purple, tasting of vanilla rather than lavender
CocoaColoured with real cocoa and nothing else
PeachWarm orange pink for summer parties
CreamPlain vanilla buttercream, left uncoloured
One small kitchen, and what that means for allergies
Everything is baked behind the counter, with two ovens, one mixer and the same piping bench for every flavour. The peanut butter and pistachio batches go in last each day and the surfaces are washed afterwards, but flour and nut dust travel, and we will not pretend otherwise.
That is why nothing here is sold as safe for allergies, and why the vegan chocolate cupcake is described only as made without eggs or milk. If someone at your party has a severe allergy, a bakery that keeps those allergens out of its kitchen altogether is the better choice.
- Allergens listed for every flavour, every day
- Recipes and suppliers rechecked whenever anything changes
- Ingredient cards printed for any order on request
Ordering a party box, start to finish
Party boxes need 48 hours' notice, and wedding towers a fortnight.
Choose the box and colours
Pick the size, up to three frosting colours and any name or number for the tops.
Check the allergens together
We go through the flavours against the allergen table and print an ingredient card for the table.
Baked and piped on the day
Your cupcakes come out of the oven that morning and are piped in the hour before collection.
Carried home flat
The box rides on the floor of the car or in the boot, out of the sun, then waits in a cool room.
Around the counter
Said between bites (example reviews)
Ordered a box of twelve in mint and sky for a baby shower. The ingredient card on the table meant the guest who avoids nuts could see at a glance which ones to skip.
The salted caramel is the best thing on the high street, and the box arrived home perfect because the shop told us to put it on the floor of the car.
Our office orders mini cupcakes at the end of every month. Always on time, always labelled, and the vegan chocolate always disappears first.
Before you pick your flavours
Do you make cupcakes without gluten?
Not at the moment. The kitchen uses wheat flour all day, and we would rather say so than sell something that could still contain gluten.
Is the vegan chocolate suitable for a milk allergy?
It is made without milk or eggs, but in the same kitchen and on the same bench as both. We would not recommend it for a severe milk allergy, and we tell everyone who asks the same thing.
How long do cupcakes keep?
They are best on the day and still good the next, in a closed box in a cool room. Buttercream cupcakes do not like the fridge, which dries out the sponge.
Can you match a party theme?
We pipe up to three colours, letters, numbers and simple shapes such as stars and hearts. We do not copy characters or logos from films or brands.
How far ahead should we order a wedding tower?
At least two weeks, and longer in summer. Use the party form to give the wedding date and guest numbers, and we suggest how many cupcakes and which flavours.
Do you deliver?
Within 5 km from Tuesday to Saturday, with the fee shown at checkout. Wedding towers are delivered and set up at the venue by the baker.
Plan a party box or a tower
Say when the party is, how many will be eating and who at the table has an allergy, and the baker replies within one working day with flavours, colours and a price. Once you say yes, the bill for the boxes is paid to the bakery directly.
- 48 hours' notice for party boxes
- Two weeks for wedding towers
- An ingredient card with every party order
