Hey, I’m Celeste…

the girl you go to for wedding cakes in the Hunter Valley.

And like all good stories, mine began in New York.

Which was where I was living and baking for fun, when I decided I wanted to go all in and start a business. And, like all stories from the past 5 years, my plans came to a grinding halt with Covid.

So I moved back to the Hunter Valley with nothing but a dream for a business, a new American husband, and a desire to make beautiful cakes with beautiful flowers.

But pretty soon my creativity took me in a new direction and I started experimenting with styled shoots, unconventional shapes, and non-traditional expressions.

And pretty soon after that I got noticed and featured by industry leaders such as The Wed, The Bridal Journey, Wedded Wonderland, Martha Stewart and Brides.com.

Flattered is an understatement. 

Now I’m living my dream of being a cake-designer to non-traditional lovebirds like you

…except now it’s baking wedding cakes in the Hunter Valley, instead of New York, which let’s be honest, is way better…right?

Can’t wait to bake for you.

“Our experience with you was nothing short of perfection- from the very first email you put so much effort into understanding what our vision of a wedding cake was, offering suggestions and overall being absolutely delightful to speak to. Our cake was beautiful with sooo many guests commenting on how lovely and delicious it was…everything was so bespoke and personable.
