Good Cake Day

by Chinelo Awa

At Good Cake Day they take making people feel special so seriously they built a business around it. They are a luxury bespoke cake studio with a warm and friendly personality, based in the ever inspiring and evolving city of London.

Each cake is lovingly handcrafted to showcase what makes each customer BLUSH (i.e. Beautiful, Loved, Unique, Special and Human). From complimentary cake consultations for all customers to truly bespoke designs, making customers feel BLUSH is at the heart of everything they do. 

 

background

I moved to the UK from Nigeria, when I was 18 to study commercial law at university and stayed to pursue a career in law. Despite my love for business (I grew up watching the Apprentice and always pictured myself being on the show), I never saw myself as an entrepreneur. A few years ago I started thinking about having children and the sort of mother I wanted to be. I realised that as much as I wanted a career, I also wanted to be a very hands-on mother. It became clear that the best way to achieve the level of flexibility I desired was to start my own business and build it up so that when I was ready to have children, my time would be my own.

With a love for good cake and a desire to make a positive impact with my business, I started Good Cake Day in December 2016. We’re now an award-winning cake company with customers such as Google Startup Weekend and high profile families in Dubai. Our cakes have been featured in Vogue, Love My Dress and lifestyle blogs. I’m particularly proud of the BLUSH project which matches local bakers in Nigeria to local orphanages so that the children get a free birthday cake every month.

We’re halfway through year two and I’m very excited for the future!

Good CAKE DAY

Our cakes are handcrafted to showcase your individuality.

Part of making people feel BLUSH involves using only the finest ingredients so that our cakes pamper our customers' taste buds. 

The designs are inspired by our founder's love of abstract art and the use of light, colours and textures to tell a story about the person receiving the cake.
