What a fun birthday party for a super special little football superstar ⚽️

Invited to the party meant I got to taste the cake 🤭

All vanilla - as requested - enough to share then some for taking home to his elder siblings.

⚽️🎂⚽️

How could I have forgotten this fun number from a while back? Totally loved this theme of jungle, but also incorporating her favourite colour 💜

The theme brief was “Bollywood retro glam” 🌟

6 layers of vanilla cream, carrot cake and Victoria sponge all wrapped into one colourful number 💫

One for the grid 💛

Me, excitedly to Max (a massive Spidey fan): look Max! You like it?

Max, knowing it’s not his cake: *blank stare* … it’s bad

Savage, but I also know it’s because he liked it enough to want it himself ;)

Max’s bestie’s 4th birthday was a Spidey fest, and I was honoured to do the cake! Happy birthday to the cutest dude 👬

Top tier is my favourite lemon cake with lemon cream cheese filling and bottom tier is traditional vanilla with strawberry jam filling 😋

The most handsome dude in the world turns 4 today.

“I number 4!”

To my “dragon fire” (aka avatar) loving bae - I love you to the moon and back 💙

The cutest little cake for a special guy’s 1st birthday bash! Had lots of fun with this one - lemon sponge with a touch of lemon cream cheese in between the layers for the top tier, and a classic Victoria sponge sitting on the bottom one. Chocolate fondant bear was so fun to make and add!

🌈 a recreation of one of my older cakes, this fun take on a girlie-rainbow cake has all the right colours 💞💜💙 both on the inside and out ;)

Vanilla and white chocolate flavours - always a classic.

Some vanilla and white chocolate goodness with the kiss of the colour ❤️ ♥️ ❤️

Some cuppie goodies I made for us recently - peanut butter cupcakes with banana caramel filling and buttercream… I was obsessed with this flavour combo and had to try it out! Turned out alright :)

The banana caramel thoooooo 🤤

Strawberry and lemon layers in this cake cake (with real strawberries!) covered in strawberry cream cheese and garnished with some delish lemon meringues 🤤

A sweet end to a 🇹🇹 lunch

A vanilla and white chocolate dreamy cake for a horse loving lady 🐴

Thanks for trusting me, again! 🥰

This football fan got his team plastered all over his birthday cake! I wonder if anyone ate the football ⚽️ 🥳

This was a fun one!

Making cakes for loved ones - there’s nothing like it! 🥰

A super pleasure to make this for my artsy, creative niece 👩‍🎨

Wanted to make it as tie-dyed as possible with some unusual features, but still in the girlie theme 💖

Rainbow marbled vanilla cake with white chocolate buttercream cake (with unpictured matching cupcakes!!) for this one! 🥳

Rainbow butterfly theme for a beautiful birthday girl!

I had the pleasure of doing this vanilla sponge layered cake covered in white chocolate buttercream for a good friend’s little one who I’ve known since birth. Excited didn’t cut it 🤩

She seemed pleased and that’s allllll that matters 😌

It’s my birthday! So I made myself a cake to share with friends and family 🥰

Top tier is banana sponge with dulce de leche, covered in a caramilk buttercream. Bottom tier is basic vanilla sponge, filled and topped with white chocolate buttercream.

Settling in more and more into my new home, ready to bake more! 🎂

I had no vision for this cake - it was a particularly emotional day and purposefully tried to not think about it. But I had to make Douxdoux a cake. I started the cake, and just before decorating, randomly chose colours… slapped them on… and came out with a sunset style cake… all too fitting.

Happy birthday, baby bro - the sun set on you way too soon, way too suddenly, and none of us can process it, still. We still talk about you daily, we love you, and I hope you got our balloon - you had parties all over the world.

Love you, Roberto (Douxdoux - the reason and namesake of this business page)

🧡❤️💛

An oldie but such a goodie. This carrot and caramel cake was made for a super special friend back in Pau 🇫🇷 just before I left 😢 which brings me to a bit of an announcement - we’ve moved to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 a month ago but without my gadgets… until now!!

My supplies (and furniture - thank goodness) has finally made it to Wokingham and so I will resume my baking this week.

Pau - you’ve been the birthplace of doux. Trials, failures and eventual successes - with so many great connections made along the way. Merci encore 🇫🇷

Such a fun cake - a little girl who loves Maleficent as much as I do?! Yes, please! 🙌🙌

Layers of chocolate, vanilla (coloured green) and strawberry swirl (coloured purple) sponge with white chocolate and strawberry jam between the layers, covered in both white and milk chocolate ganache (to create the purple ombré effect). Some green sugar ‘magic’ to top the effect!

Happiest (half) birthday to a very special girl 💜

Carrot cake with pecans and caramel chocolate in between the layers, covered in cream cheese frosting - a gift for a special friend’s birthday 🎂

I love making these cakes - classic cakes with focus on taste & texture with some of my favourite ingredients ❤️

I wish I had taken more pictures of this cake - a special bake in another baker’s work place ;) thanks for hosting me and hope you enjoyed your birthday treat!

Chocolate layers made with black cocoa which gave it a deeper flavour 🤤 Milk chocolate ganache topped and covered it while caramel chocolate was the filling ;)

My first (of many?) England-based bakes as we prepare to leave France in June 🇫🇷 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 😢 🤩

My last cake of the season? Maybe!

And ohhhh what a cake :) my bestie turned 6 and - I understood the assignment: “cowboy, but make it pink”.

Say no more, fam 😎

Happiest birthday cutie! We love you! 😘

Vanilla cake made with brown sugar just adds a depth of flavour that is insane. A bit of cream cheese added to the buttercream to add some oomf.

I have been dreaming of doing this cake for sometime - mud chocolate layers with Nutella and praline filling (plus a hint of caramel - because why not) covered in dark chocolate ganache, decorated with hazelnut buttercream, Ferrero Roche chocolates and crushed toasted hazelnuts 😍

Merci encore pour votre confiance 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 such a pleasure!

I loved creating this cake - and I loved it more that It brought a smile to the kids’ faces!

Three layers of cake (chocolate, raspberry and vanilla) covered with white chocolate mascarpone and buttercream 💜

Merci encore pour votre confiance 💜
