Replica Cakes

Miniature Café offer a very popular service whereby you can send us a few selected photographs of a special cake and they will be turned into a perfectly scaled replica. This is bar none the most popular product we offer. We pride ourselves on providing IGMA Artisan quality that is second-to-none in the industry (a bold statement). This is a commitment we believe brings our customers back to us time and time again.

Check out Hannah's comments when she wrote to tell us she had received her cake:

"The cake arrived today! I am so happy with it. I absolutely LOVE it! It looks so like the real thing that when I opened the box and saw it first the smell of the cake immediately came back to me. Your attention to detail is astounding, the tiny icing design is so accurately replicated and it was an intricate enough design in fullscale! The little figures on top of the cake are so properly posed, the seat on top of the cake so well recreated and even sinking back slightly into the icing, just like the real thing!! Its just Great! I am so delighted to have this little reminder forever, THANK YOU! "

Hannah should also be accredited to the design of the cake: She designed it herself ~ which clearly made it more special! It was a pleasure to make:

Everyone has a memory of a cake they would like replicated: Anniversary, Birthday, Christening cakes and of course Wedding cakes. You can have either 1/12th scale or 1/24th scale as standard but we can make different scales if you ask.

Here are some examples of previous projects!

Most of our customers want fairly simple cakes reproduced, simple two tier wedding cakes or single layer Birthday cakes are the most popular but we have also reproduced more extravagant ones. We have even made a 1/12th scale replica of Buckingham Palace!

In the past we have also provided replicas of a wedding cake that not yet been produced. The cakes were to be used as favours for the wedding party and we managed to replicate them from a sketch from the baker.

“The reproductions are the best part of my job” says Andi, “I love how a couple of photos can produce an exact replica of someone’s special cake. A returning customer is the best compliment I can receive and parcelling up and posting out a finished product is a fantastic feeling!”
