It has been a fantastic rollercoaster of a time and I have loved (almost) every minute of running my celebration cake business, from way back in the dark days of 2011.

Things change though, circumstances, ambitions, pandemics...and so if you would like to find out more about the hilarious and delicious things I'm up to these days, please check out my new page Yay Flapjacks and come give me a like and a follow. We are in the same location and have the same ethos and attention to detail, we just make something a little different now.

Thanks so much to everyone for your support of Cakes by Beth and then Torte Cakes over the years. I've met some amazing people, made great friends, worked in unbelievable venues and been in some absolutely ridiculous situations. Here's to another exciting chapter, this time with my partner in crime on board, where hopefully I can say the same again 😘.

Yay for flapjacks! Cheers!

🎈YAY SHOP SIGN! 🎈

It’s Peter’s birthday today! 🎉🎁 To celebrate, we’ve got more construction work and utilities stuff going on at home and the shop than we ever thought possible in the space of a few weeks (gas, electrical, bricking things up, knocking things down, air con, painting, the works) and then we find this beaut of a shop sign has been fitted! It’s only been 18 months of deliberating but we finally have an identity.

What a day! What a birthday!

Thank you , we love it and really appreciate your work, especially at this incredibly, incredibly difficult time for you.

We are still closed this week as we are taking a few days to catch up on some things. So far, no lie ins at all as everything has required an extra early start 🤣 Maybe this weekend? 🤞🤣

We’ve also got a couple of really awesome and exciting projects in the pipeline, which we can’t wait to tell you about. Love a secret project and a frustratingly vague social media post. Ok a couple of clues then. One is based on our most popular thing and making it even more exciting. The other is related to what you’d put on some of our things and making that even more exciting too. Any guesses? 🤣

We are off for more secret shenanigans and not so secret noisy building work. Have a goodun, see you soon!

UPDATE: It’s tough times right now and we appreciate that this doesn’t really fit with fancy party cakes. For everyone who will still be celebrating milestone birthdays, we will be there for you for as long as we can. We are all set up to honour the orders that we already have in place. If you’re postponing your event, we completely understand, just let us know your new date when you know, however long that takes.

In the meantime, we are still working away as our other brand Yay Flapjacks. They’re squishy and gluten-free and we have lots of vegan flavours too. They can currently be posted as Royal Mail are working damned hard to ensure everything gets through 👊 We also deliver locally and can doorstep drop if you’re self-isolating. If you’re up for a delicious treat in these uncertain times, we can help. Link in bio. In the words of Jerry Springer, take of yourselves, and each other.

Meet Kobe and Lucas and their favourite toys.I have made cakes for this family before and it was lovely to work with them again. I had a lot of fun making these two pugs and was quite sorry to see them leave. Happy birthday Emma, I hope you had a fantastic weekend celebrating!

Apparently it’s National Toast Day! So to celebrate, here’s a drippy cake in the colours of Reese’s Pieces, decorated with peanut butter cups and a slice of buttered toast. Apparently the birthday boy goes round to his parents every morning before work and eats about half a dozen slices! 🤣🍞🧈 Happy birthday Blake! xx
