6 of the Best...Inspirational Bakeries

1. The Little Venice Cake Company


As mentioned previously, Mich Turner is a fantastic baker and icing artist, and I would recommend any aspiring cake decorator to purchase her book, Cake Masterclass. Not only does she include basic techniques and recipes, but she provides step-by-step directions of how to re-create some of her signature masterpieces.

5. Lola's Cupcakes


From experience, some of the most delicious cupcakes I've ever tasted! A delicious mound of creamy butter icing perched on top of a moist spongy cupcake, with the trademark colour coded ring to show the flavour.
