Cakes by Mary (Long Barn Bakery)

Reasons why one should travel out of one's way to get a cake by Mary: 1. Presentation The woman is an absolute artist ! We asked for a 3D cake of a specific cartoon character and the cake Mary made us was THE genuine article. 2. Quality After the family and friends get over their hesitation to cut into something so beautifully made, the cake itself is super tasty and equally as importantly the sponge is soo good that overindulging doesnt leave you feeling heavy 3. Service Naturally we want the cake details to be just right and this can lead to a lot of questions. Mary was kind and patient and the whole interaction was very comfortable If youre anything like me (you've been searching through all the bakers and cake pictures online and reviews to find exactly the right one and want value for money) look no further. Trust me , I'm a dr but more relevantly I am a happy customer of a cake by Mary that made both the kids and adults very happy.

I got married recently (26th June) and ordered my wedding cake from Mary. Wow!!!! I wasn't disappointed. I asked for the bottom tier to be a Victoria Sponge, the middle tier was a light fruit cake and the top tier was a Lemon drizzle cake. Everyone who had a piece kept complimenting on how tasty and moist the cake was I gave Mary a piece of ribbon for my colour scheme and she got it just right. The edible roses on the cake were amazing. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Mary at all. Beautiful cake which made a special day even better. Thank you xx

Mary made us a beautiful, and extra tasty semi-naked 3-tier wedding cake. The bottom tier was hazelnut and chocolate, the top two were dark chocolate and raspberry, and they tasted and looked divine! We received so many compliments from our guests about the cake, I really cannot recommend Mary highly enough. She's very professional, super efficient and excellent at her job - exactly what you need when you're arranging a wedding. Don't settle for people who tell you wedding cake has to be dense and hard in order to support the layers: it's all about having appropriate supports within the layers. As Engineers, we definitely appreciated Mary's explanation of how to build structural support within the cake, and it meant we had a beautiful, tasty, light & fluffy cake for our wedding. From the many cake tastings we went to, Mary was definitely the best! It's been almost a week and we're still not sick of the cake, I'm actually craving more of it...

Mary made both our wedding cake and the cake for our sons 1st birthday. She was attentive for detail and did an amazing job! We will certainly go back on the next big day !
