About
Who is The Tailor?
Hi, I'm Laura! I made my first official 'decorated' cake in 2009 for my daughter's birthday. It was a huge success and I was being asked to create cakes for family and friends after that. As time went on, I really got into it and the more I made, the more ideas and inspiration I got. Fast forward 13 years and thousands of cakes later... I have been blessed with the help of my two daughters who have learned to bake and decorate cakes too. We love what we do and thrive on bringing joy and happiness to people each day.
