Topic: Cake Maker - Auckland Posted: 09 December 2010 at 10:55am |
Hi Ladies
Can anyone suggest a really good and reasonably priced cake maker in Auckland?
I live in Howick so close to home or someone who delivers would be great!
DD is 1 in early January so would like to get organised now before everyone disappears on holiday!
Thanks

What sort of cake are you looking for? THemed or just a simple cake?
There are a number of places that do them but you are right about organising now because many close over the christmas new years season.

Hi Lillis,
I'm in Mt Wellington and I could possibly do a cake for you, as I'm not going away over Christmas.
I'm not a professional or anything, just a Mum, but could be cheaper than a store, and could deliver it to your place.
Let me know if you're still looking for someone to help you out, you may have already got something sorted.
I tried to attach a picture of an owl cake I did a month ago, but its on Facebook and the link didn't work.
