Hello
I’m Jen Thomas, owner &
creator of Cakey Lulu’s
I’ve always loved baking and making delicious treats, even from a very early age with my mum when we would bake brownies together. I never really saw myself as a particularly ‘creative’ person, although I really enjoyed art and found I had a knack for still-life sketching. As I grew up I pursued a very different path, completing a law degree and then joining the Police Force.
I am married to Nathan, and have two beautiful daughters - Lexi and Maia.
It was in having children that I rediscovered my love for baking and decorating beautiful cakes (starting off with their birthday cakes of course). I discovered that I had a hidden talent for decorating cakes, following in the footsteps of my wonderful Grandmother who herself was a wedding cake designer specialising in beautiful, ornate piping details and intricate sugar flowers. After 12 years as a Constable, I officially traded my uniform for an apron, and Cakey Lulu’s was born!
After I had my second daughter, I decided to take a career break.
My life-long love of all things
“wedding” steered me toward
my true passion:
Designing and creating beautifully elegantwith pretty sugar flowers and hand painted details, for couples to share with their guests on their most special day!
After spending many hours taste-testing new recipes (it’s a tough job, but someone has to do it!), I have come up with some truly delicious and indulgent flavour combinations to tease your taste buds.
and delicious wedding cakes,
I love to meet couples and find out about their individual styles.
Of course some couples already know exactly what sort of wedding cake they want, but I am always excited to come up with a beautiful design for those who have no idea!
The Cakey Lulu’s service is truly bespoke, and every detail is planned out from design to delivery to ensure a perfect cake for your special day.
