A little about FrecklesandCakes

I’m Astrid, and I’m all about beautiful cakes, thoughtful details and a little bit of personality.

Astrid, the cake maker behind FrecklesandCakes, wearing a straw hat and glassesFood hygiene rating: 5 — Very Good

Based in Norwich, Norfolk, I create bespoke wedding and celebration cakes, specialising in vintage-inspired buttercream piping, modern floral details and designs that are made to feel a little different. Every cake is made by hand, with plenty of care given to both how it looks and how it tastes. From the first design ideas to the finishing touches, I love bringing together beautiful details, lovely flavours and a design that feels just right for your occasion. I believe a cake should be more than just something to serve. It should be part of the celebration, something that brings people together and makes a moment feel that little bit more special. Whether you’re planning a wedding, celebrating a birthday or simply looking for an excuse for cake, I’d love to create something for you.

Beautifully made, full of character and always made with love.
