Meet The Cake Lady
The Cake Lady Dunedin is the cake maker behind Criollo Designer Cakes, creating custom cakes, birthday cakes, wedding cakes, floral cupcakes, cupcake bouquets and celebration desserts in Dunedin.
Hello, I’m The Cake Lady – a beloved name given to me by the countless children whose birthday celebrations I’ve sweetened with my custom-made cakes.
We’re popular for creating magical, bespoke wedding cakes, stunning birthday cakes, beautiful floral cupcakes, corporate logo cupcakes, and cupcake bouquets. Each cake and cupcake is a unique blend of vibrant designs, creative expressions of your emotions, whimsical details, carefully crafted ideas, and flavours that leave a lasting impression.
My passion lies in turning delectable buttercream into a delightful centrepiece, making our cakes part of our client’s happiest moments.
The business, Criollo Designer Cakes, was born with my child. This is when I made a business out of what I love to do, and we’ve never looked back!
I love to perfect the intricate ways of piping buttercream to create realistic florals that you can eat. My buttercream florals are some of my best selling cake art and they are very popular on wedding cakes and anniversary cakes.
The fascinating world of fondant figurines is yet another medium to make your cake dreams come true! Our fondant figurines are a testament to the high quality of work we believe in.
At Criollo Designer Cakes, there’s something for everyone. Just fill in the Quote Form and I will strive to get back to you within 48 hours.
