How to add a name to your Photo Cake

Photo cakes are the ideal choice when you are looking for a birthday cake or a celebration cake for any other occasion! A tasty cake is a must at any event, they are often the centrepieces to the food arrangements for a party. So, needless to say, that on top of being delicious they also need to look fabulous. And photo cakes are the best choice because you can make them personalised, using your own photos and you even add a name or a message to customise it even more!

Don’t worry if you’re not too sure about how to go about it, we know, something that may seem straightforward to one person, it may be trickier for someone else. We want everyone to be able to put a smile on their loved one’s face with a personalised photo cake.

So, to make it a bit easier we are putting together a few handy video tutorials to walk you through the steps of creating photo cake masterpieces. Video tutorials are great, because you can watch them all the way through to see how to do something, in our case using our photo cake design tool, and you can pause them at each step you want to follow or skip ahead to just watch the elements you want to use.

Here’s our how-to video to show you how it works:

Remember, always check the preview of your photo cake topper. It’s an important step to do, if you have forgotten to remove a bit of text or something it’s lined up properly, you’ll have an opportunity to go back and change it. We also send a preview of your order via email once you’ve placed your order, as you may spot something amiss there. If you’ve placed your order and notice something is not right, it’s important to get in touch with us as soon as possible, as once we start processing your order, we can’t change it. You can get in touch with us via our help desk.

If you are looking for a specific date to have your photo cake delivered you can check to see if it is available by clicking here.

We take extra care and attention to detail while applying your cake toppers, so they take a bit more time to prepare. As we only have a small team of expert bakers, we need to allow an extra day to process photo cake orders. This also means that there may be limited availability when demand is high.

You can place an order for your photo cake in advance for a special occasion using the calendar in our checkout!

Our sponge cakes are packaged in secure and robust packaging. The inner box is wrapped around the cake to securely hold it in place so the sides and top do not get damaged in transit. The box also includes a handy cutting guide! It is then put in a strong cardboard outer box for extra protection so it will arrive to you safely.
