About Me
LAURA PARSONS - CAKE DESIGNER
Hello! I'm Laura and I am the cake designer behind Sprinkles and Sponge Cake. I have always had a passion for baking and everything cake, however after leaving school I went on to study Graphic Communication at University. After graduating I worked in creative advertising and marketing for (quite a few!) years. I am naturally a very creative person and love to be creating in the real world rather than digitally, so when we started a family and our two little people came along my love for baking was reignited. Starting with their Christening and Birthday cakes! Friends and family started asking if I could bake cakes for them, and so 'Sprinkles and Sponge Cake' was born.
Gradually i've taught myself more and more creative techniques, working with both buttercream and fondant, rice paper and icing paper, Ganache and Chocolate and fresh flowers and faux! I have worked hard to achieve (and extremely proud of) a 5* food hygiene rating from my local Environmental health team.
​
With each cake I tailor the design to the customer, therefore prices are always unique to you. I have created a price guide to help give a rough idea, but, as always, just let me know if you have a budget you are working to. The most creative custom requests always start with a pencil sketch and conversation with you to ensure the design is what you had in mind!
Each cake I create takes a lot of planning and careful consideration. For this reason I always recommend that you book your date as far in advance as you can, especially if you are wanting something very creative!
