About

Hello!

Sweet Changes is my little home bakery in Stanmore. Every cake is baked to order and piped by hand, from vintage Lambeth-style celebration cakes to bento cakes boxed up with a satin bow, plus cookie cakes and sweet bakes.

Established in 2021, Sweet Changes began with baking for family, friends and events, and has grown through word of mouth and Instagram.

I love crafting each project to perfection.

with love

FAQs

Good to know

How much notice do you need?

A minimum of 2 days’ notice for all orders. Larger or more detailed bespoke cakes may need longer. For busy dates, the earlier the better.

Where can I collect from, and do you deliver?

Collection is from Stanmore (HA7). For privacy, the full address is shared when your order is confirmed. Delivery is free within 3 miles of HA7. Further afield, delivery is charged at 75p per mile beyond the first 3 miles (for example, 5 miles away = £1.50).

Can you cater for allergies?

All bakes are made to order in a home kitchen that also handles nuts, peanuts, gluten (wheat), dairy, eggs, soya and sesame. While I take care to avoid cross-contamination, I can’t guarantee any bake is free from allergens. Please tell me about any allergies when you enquire.

Some dietary requests may be possible, so just ask when you enquire.

How do payment and deposits work?

A 50% deposit is due when you accept your quote, and secures your date. The remaining 50% is due on collection or delivery. I accept bank transfer, cash or a payment link. As ingredients are bought and your date is held for you, the deposit is non-refundable.

Can you make a custom design?

Yes, bespoke designs are a big part of what I do, from vintage piping and Arabic lettering to themed cakes. Send me your inspiration photos on WhatsApp and we’ll plan it together.

How much does a cake cost?

Every bake is quoted individually, depending on size, flavour and design. Send an enquiry and I’ll come back to you with a quote.
