BESPOKE CAKES After much thought and a lot of sadn

BESPOKE CAKES
After much thought and a lot of sadness, I’ve decided to stop making bespoke cakes. The classic layer cakes will still be available on our website and to order in store, but they will be set designs which can be personalised with our laser cut toppers.
Sadly, and I have to be honest here, this is due to an increasing number of customers being pretty unpleasant.
If you follow Skylark, or have visited/enjoyed the cakes (first of all thank you 🙏) but secondly you will know that making the cakes lovely and as nice as they can be is the number 1 priority. I think you can see that from our Social Media and website. A LOT of time, effort and cost goes in to making a Skylark cake; from the board they sit on to the ingredients used, to the box they leave in! Because I’m a perfectionist and want you to have a perfect cake and a luxury cake experience!
I do my absolute best every time.
Sadly this has proved not enough for some and so I’ve decided to prioritise my health and my family by taking a step back from bespoke cake orders.
I’m really not keen on posting long, personal posts (is anyone still reading! 😂) but felt I needed to clarify for those who may want such cakes in the future.
A lot has been said about it in the last few years, but never has the ‘be kind’ slogan felt so close to me as it does writing this.
Creating and building Skylark was 15 year old me’s dream! I imagined creating a cute, happy environment folks could enjoy with each other. Never in that dream did I imagine I’d experience some of the meanness I have met with in recent weeks. It’s not been nice or easy.
Soooo….
Thanks for reading/listening/being here! So grateful every day for all our wonderful customers, many who have become friends; never have we needed you more! 💕
