This June, CaraCakes will be taking part in the Starship Big Bake Off. We're quite excited!

What this means?
Throughout June, I will be completing challenges, creating raffles and taking custom cake orders with ALL proceedings going direct to Starship via the link below.

Therefore, if you have a challenge you'd like me to take on or if you'd like to order any custom cake during June, just place a minimum donation of $30 to Starship and I'll make it happen! ✨

Aside from the baking aspect, if you would like to make a donation, no matter how small, Starship and I truly appreciate it ☺️

Thank you 🙂 xx

Please note: Orders are subject to availability, this is a first in, first serve basis and in no way affiliated with Meta or Facebook.

Hi, I’m Cara — a mum of three little ones under five and the person behind CaraCakes 🎂

Most days are a mix of motherhood, mess, school runs, sleepless nights, and cake orders, and somewhere in between it all, this business has grown into something I’m really proud of. What started as a creative passion became a way for me to build something for myself while raising my babies at the same time.

This Mother’s Day feels extra special because, like so many mums, I understand the juggle that comes with trying to do it all. Being trusted to create cakes for your special moments means more to me than you probably realise.

I’m so grateful for every order, share, and bit of support along the way — thank you for supporting my small business, and Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing mums out there. 💕

(Our “Mothers Day” image was especially created by AI haha)

A little rebrand announcement ✨

I’m so excited to share that CaraCare is now CaraCakes 🎂

It’s still me behind the scenes, still creating the same custom cakes with the same passion and care — just with a name and look that better reflects where this little cake journey is heading.

Thank you so much for all the support so far. It truly means the world, and I can’t wait to keep creating beautiful cakes for you all.

Love,
CaraCakes 💕

My youngest daughter’s “Under the Sea” 4th birthday cake (Vanilla cake with strawberry buttercream filling, wrapped in a subtle vanilla ombré buttercream), and a hobbies, interests and professions 40th birthday cake (Chocolate cake with chocolate ganache and caramel filling, wrapped in a subtle vanilla buttercream).

All decor was edible (apart from the Mermaid Barbie and the flag candle).

Remember, I’m always open to making your cake vision come true so feel free to get in touch ✨

Catching up on admin… 😅
A few weeks ago CaraCare whipped up 2 Bandana themed cakes. Talk about taking on a challenge with learning some new techniques to pull this off!

Shout out to Monkey Tree for the edible images!

At CaraCare we’ve been baking something a little special and different ✨ and unfortunately the ingredients haven’t quite mixed well with me so we haven’t really focused on baking anything else. However, please continue to contact us and if we aren’t able to assist, I have kindly asked my friend who previously made our special occasion cakes (before I found my own baking passion), to take on my clients during my absence so I can promise you they’ll be fab no matter who bakes for you 🥰

✨ Baby G, number 3, due September ✨
