“Absolutely perfect wedding cake! The cake looked absolutely incredible.
Shafina is very professional, down to earth, and a very warm person!
The cake looked amazing and, from what I heard from our guests, it tasted out of this world.
Sadly, the cake was so good that it had all been eaten by our guests by the time we came to get a piece for ourselves!
Thanks, Shafina”
“Thank you so so much for our beautiful cake.
It was absolutely delicious - all the guests thoroughly enjoyed it and it was devoured. We had the red velvet the next day and, oh my, it was so tasty!
Thank you so much for all your help throughout this time - you are so easy to talk to and just so helpful!
I’m grateful for all your advice during this period and thank you so much for making our day extra special x”

The strawberry sponge is out of this world! So inventive and beautifully made.
I don't have a sweet tooth, but I was delighted by Shafina’s cakes. Absolutely superb!”

Not only are they gorgeous to look at but they taste beautiful, too.
Her standards are high and designs are unique with different blends of flavours available. On top of all that, a very lovely friendly individual.”
“Shafina is fantastic in what she does!
I’ve ordered from her twice, both times on my children’s first birthdays and the cakes were amazing.
I gave her a small idea of what I wanted and both times she created stunning and delicious cakes.
Everyone complimented the cakes and they still tasted moist 2 days later! Would 100% recommend and will most definitely use her again for my cake needs in the future.”
“Shafina has made several cakes for us over the years and they have always been amazing... from the design to the taste!
Always fabulous!”
“This was the best gift I have ever given.
My aunty was 70 and we asked Shafina to deliver a carrot cake to her.
My goodness it was beautiful, multiple layers and the decoration was far beyond what I imagined! And, it tasted fabulous.
Although we couldn’t be with her, it was the perfect gift and she was so happy!”
“You can trust Shafina, to deliver your dream cake!
She is amazing and her cakes are delicious.”

You can definitely rely on Shafina for design she always does an amazing job. I’ve already recommended to lots of people! x”
“We ordered a cake for our Dad’s 70th birthday.
Shafina was able to give good advice on which style to go for and did a wonderful job matching the cake to the decorations.
The cake itself was delicious and moist, especially being eggless.
Would definitely recommend using Shafina for future occasions!”

Thank you so so so much.”
“The cake looked so good!! I just didn’t want it to be cut - I took so many pictures.
The cake… I’m not even a chocolate cake person, but I ordered it since my in-laws like it so, and it was the best chocolate cake I’ve had by far!It was so moist and not at all like sickly chocolate.
Everything was so amazing and most importantly everyone LOVED the cake!
I’m so so glad I’ve booked you for my wedding cake! I might have to order a bigger cake.
Thank you so much for the amazing service. 100000% recommend you to anyone!”

You never ever fail, Alhumdulilah. You have such talent.
Everyone was so shocked to see such an amazing cake!”
“We have used Cakes By Shafina on 3 occasions now - for my son’s 4th birthday, my daughter’s 1st birthday, and gender reveal cupcakes. Every time the service has been fantastic.
Shafina is always professional and friendly and willing to help based on your ideas.
For my daughters 1st birthday cake, I pretty much gave her free reign and the result was absolutely stunning, beyond expectation.
Every time, the cakes have looked beautiful with amazing attention to detail and they have tasted delicious - light and fluffy sponge, not too sweet.
I highly recommend Cakes By Shafina, you will not be disappointed.”
“Shafina, can I just say a huge thank you for making the delicious cupcakes! They tasted absolutely beautiful! My partner loved them.
I’ve had so many people ask me where I had got them from, so we will definitely be coming back for more!
Thank you for your hard work and effort, you’re amazing at what you do!
Will see you soon for the wedding cake planning or most likely more birthday cakes.
Again, thank you so much, lovely! x”
“OMG! Shafina, the cake tastes absolutely amazing! My dad absolutely loved it!
Thank you so much again for making the cake for me, your love for baking clearly shows in the mind-blowing cakes you make!”
“Shafina, you never fail to amaze me with my cake orders. You now have made many cakes for me from my son’s 21st, my 40th, my eldest son’s wedding cake last year, and now my youngest son’s wedding cake. Your cakes are faultless from design to taste. Just want to thank you for your time and effort - your love for making cakes is truly visible in what you deliver. Shaheen”

“Your cakes are always so good, and I always have the confidence that you’ll the design exactly as we want. Today was the best cake you’ve ever made for us.
