Zahra Cakes

We have had two Zahra Cakes and both have been sensational. The first was for our daughter Olivia. It had a Tinkerbell in top, the decoration was stunning and the sponge as light as sponge can be. The second was for my partner but we had the pineapple cream filling. Oh my days!! The Baker is a sponge sorceress.

We’ve ordered cakes from this place about 4-5 times and she’s never let us down. My brothers walima, my cousins birthday, my other brothers nikkah and more. She makes amazing cakes and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her. She made our cakes in such short notice, and managed to make an outstanding cake. Xx

Zahra Cakes really came to our rescue after our wedding cake supplier pulled out a week before our wedding date! The task of booking the cake was left up to my husband who, in a panic went searching for help in Zahra. The service was absolutely wonderful and his ideas were listened to and worked with to fit the very short timescale that we were left with! Even after a clumsy moment and a big gust of wind caused the cake to become damaged, after going back in, it was restored back to its former glory in less than a day - Something many cake shops would either not have been able to help with or would have tried to charge an obscene about of money to fix. I must say that I do not eat much cake but my god, I ate a LOT of this one. It was incredible. The sponge was fluffy, the cream fresh and i'm going to say that the macarons must have been good because I didn't even get to try one before they were all taken from the cake! Prices are very reasonable and as said above, the service is just absolutely out of this world!

We came to Zahra Cakes with the idea of having 24 individual cakes and one two tiered bridal cake for my sister's wedding. My mother wanted for each table to have its own individual cake that was pre-sliced so each guest could help themselves, not knowing whether would this be possible. But Zahra Cakes went beyond our expectations she was incredibly easy to communicate our ideas to, she was extremely accommodating to us as customers and maintained that she provided to us what we wanted. The cakes were incredible, the fact that she uses fresh cream is an added bonus and you could really tell the quality of ingredients and love interjected into each individual cake. We went with 12 chocolate cakes and 12 vanilla cakes and they were both so delicious. The guests loved them as did the bride and groom who enjoyed their bridal cake a lot.

We ordered a cake for our daughter's first birthday a day before she turned 1. I thought we would need to buy a cake from M&S as we left it so late. But we got the most amazing cake ever. So fresh, not too sweet, just perfect and it looked exactly like we wanted. Very happy customer and would definitely be returning to order more in the future
