HLC was established in 2012 through a passion of art, baking and science. Hollie left school with the intention of studying Biology at university, but during a gap year found that her three passions could be combined through the art of cake design and baking. Starting with simple swirled cupcakes for friends and family, the desire to create new, innovative designs grew rapidly.
Wanting to create designs that were both spectacular to look at and a delight for the taste buds was the start. Since then, HLC has become renowned for the ability to combine both art and the culinary world to wow clients and their guests. Originally based in her hometown of Southborough, in 2019 Hollie decided to take the leap and move into a bigger and better premises in The Pantiles, located in the heart of Tunbridge Wells, Kent.

Services
All of our cakes are a minimum of 5 deep with four layers of sponge and three of your chosen filling to achieve maximum flavour impact! This also gives us the perfect base to stack your cakes to create the tall and slim cakes that we are known for. If you require additional depth to suit your chosen design, we can quote upon ordering.
Please note* Intense/ dark colourings can temporarily stain or tint the mouth & lips. They can permanently stain clothing. Please bare this in mind when ordering. Dark green, Blue, Purple and Blacks are recommended to be used sparingly in your designs, especially with a buttercream finished cake. We take no responsibility for staining in these circumstances.

Hollie is fantastic. Beautiful cake and cupcakes for my daughters Birthday party. The cakes all tasted amazing. Such personal service all the way through from order enquiry dealing with dietary requirements and all the other telephone calls in between. Hollie and your team thank you for all your help and will definitely be ordering with you again.

My friend and I heard very good things about Hollie's Little Cakery ahead of her birthday, being mooted as the top cake shop in Tunbridge Wells.
However, I was disappointed on arrival to find that the server (presumably Hollie) was too preoccupied in her photoshoot and so quickly served me; slyly insulting the fact that I didn't order the cake for my friend, she wanted to pick her own and I offered to collect.
The lack of respect shown to me would have been forgiven and forgotten if it weren't for the cake's lack of quality. For £40, you'd expect a decent product. However, the sponge was extremely

Hollie made our wedding cake last year and it was absolutely incredible! We also used HLC for a second cake and extra treats for our wedding weekend which were amazing.
My wife and I can't speak highly enough about the quality of service we received. From the initial cake tasting, to delivering the cake on our big day, everything was made so easy for us!
Sorry for the slow review. It's our first anniversary on Sunday but better late then never 🙂

Never ask Hollie’s Little Cakery to make you a cake for any occasion! Such a massive let down! I messaged for a baby shower cake in October 2017 & got a reply in December about prices & when I asked for something new...silence. Iv emailed, messaged twice & heard NOTHING back!
I never listened to the 4 people I work with when they said they had bad experiences with Hollie but now I completely understand why they ended up going elsewhere.
Hollie’s Little Cakery is extremely unreliable, doesn’t bother to reply to cake orders & clearly doesn’t care about her customers. I will never use this
