I am a Food Technology teacher by profession and also spent three years in the Cake Decorating department of Bettys Craft Bakery, Harrogate. One of my proudest achievements there was to have worked on a Jubilee Cake for Buckingham Palace. After leaving teaching I decided to concentrate on my cakes again and Cakes by Design was set up as a home based business in 2010.

My business is registered, I have Level 2 certificate in Food Safety and Hygiene for Catering and a 5* rating for Food Safety and Kitchen Hygiene as awarded by the Food Standards Agency after the inspection of my premises. I create cakes for all occasions: Weddings, Anniversaries, Christenings and Birthdays and many more.

Thank you again for the lovely cake. It was just right and much admired (particlarly by the birthday boys) and we are all enjoying eating it. We will definitely want cakes from you in future! I just wanted to say thank you for the lovely cake, it was really pretty and my mother was very pleased with it.

Used Ros previously and very happy until now, my cake looked nothing like it was supposed to more like a black taxi cab than a land rover discovery, it was also tiny, it got even more disappointing when we had a slice, it was so dry, I felt it had been made too far in advance and dried out, it was inedible so it got thrown out, for £85 it was shocking . They say you are only as good as your last job and in this case poor.

I highly recommend Cakes By Design. Ros was very helpful, attentive and showed understanding to accommodate my wishes. The cake was delicious and the design was absolutely perfect.

Ros was a great help from start to finish. She made a beautiful birthday/reveal cake exactly as we had asked. Very responsive to emails - would definitely recommend.

Outstanding!
Within a week Ros had taken my (abysmal & vague) brief to create a wonderful cake. Real attention to detail.
Ros was really thoughtful and great communication too - hugely impressed! Highly recommend.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Cakes by Design. We had promised our little girl a Scooby Doo cake for her 4th Birthday Party and when our previous supplier let us down, we contacted Roslyn who stepped up at very short notice and made a fantastic cake that exceeded our expectations.
