it was the best cake I have ever eaten!

Our wedding cake was absolutely stunning and the flowers matched my wedding flowers perfectly. To top it off, it was the best cake I have ever eaten! The guests demolished it! Ordering was so easy and our instructions were followed perfectly. A stress-free and very happy experience. Thank you!

Communication was excellent!

Harry Batten Cakes is an amazing budget friendly but still packed with the wow factor wedding cake! We actually came across Harry Batten Cakes quite late into our wedding planning, but luckily they were available to make and deliver for our wedding. We are SO glad we went with them. Communication was excellent and they were happy to add on extra detailing (gold drip) to the cake.

Semi Naked Wedding Cake

Harry was fantastic from start to finish, we had a cake tasting which was really hard because it all tasted so delicious. The cake turned out beautiful and was exactly what we wanted, he was so helpful and liaised well with our events organiser to get the cake to the destination on time. I cannot thank Harry enough. Everyone commented on how delicious the cake was.

Semi Naked Wedding Cake, Meadow Flowers

Harry made a simply beautiful cake for our wedding, it was exactly what I pictured, maybe even better! He sent us a few samples to taste to help us choose what flavour combination we wanted, even giving the option of different flavours for different tiers. The cake was extremely reasonably priced and Harry’s communication was excellent from start to finish. I cannot recommend Harry and his cakes more highly. Absolutely superb

Naked Wedding Cake

Thank you for our wedding cake on 1st September 2018. It was beautiful to look at and absolutely delicious. A top tier of lemon sponge, with a middle of vanilla and bottom tier of chocolate, everyone was bowled over by it. Even the youngest guest, at nearly 3 years old said it was beautiful. I don’t have a picture yet because I haven’t had the wedding photos yet, but when I do I will post one. Thank you again Harry, we loved it!
