With over a decade of dedication as a sole trader, Blé Couture Cakes began its journey in 2010 as a humble home-based bakery. Our evolution into a beloved cake shop nestled in the heart of Ashford marks our commitment to artistry and excellence. Specialising in luxurious, bespoke cakes, we cater to an exclusive clientele, crafting edible masterpieces for a variety of special occasions. Each cake is meticulously handcrafted using our own perfected recipes, with every ingredient weighed and every egg cracked by hand to ensure unparalleled quality.
Our creations have graced extraordinary venues, from majestic castles and elegant manor houses to prestigious hotels and even international locales. This extensive experience has continually expanded our brand’s reach and refined our expertise.
The pandemic brought unforeseen challenges, leading to a temporary closure. However, we seized this period to reimagine our business, culminating in our incorporation in January 2020. This new chapter introduces our Cake Parlour and immersive Cake Kitchen, where patrons can witness the magic of baking and indulge in a #BleMoment—a slice of Blé Couture Cake paired with a choice beverage in an enchanting setting.
Looking forward, we aim to broaden our presence across Kent, making our exquisite cakes more accessible. Additionally, our venue will host workshops, community gatherings, and business events, establishing itself as a hub for family celebrations, professional networking, and community unity.
Join us at Blé Couture Cakes, where every visit is a promise of a memorable, delightful experience.
A Baker
It all began with a whimsical Princess cake, lovingly crafted by our founder, Dr. Blessing, for her daughter. This single creation sparked a journey that swiftly extended to crafting delightful confections for friends and family. Finding herself constrained by the timeworn recipes of an old cake book she had discovered in a charity shop, Dr. Blessing embarked on a quest to explore new tastes and innovative ideas in baking. Initially a self-taught amateur, her insatiable curiosity and zeal for baking soon transformed her hobby into a burgeoning home-based enterprise.
Her Cakes
Dr. Blessing’s approach to cake-making blends traditional techniques with bold innovation. Each cake is a testament to her commitment to excellence and a reflection of her personal journey in the art of baking. With her unique flair for merging flavours and an eye for design, she crafts cakes that are not only visually stunning but also tantalising to the palate. As she honed her skills through professional training, her initial experiments blossomed into a repertoire of exquisite and bespoke cakes, each telling a story of passion and meticulous care.
…and Her Business
Driven by her passion for people and a love for all things beautiful, Dr. Blessing has nurtured her brand into the esteemed cake enterprise it is today. Our Cake Parlour, a cornerstone of her business, serves as a canvas for her artistic expressions and a gathering place for cake enthusiasts. Her dedication is mirrored in the quality of each cake and the personal touch she brings to every event. From elegant weddings to intimate celebrations, her creations add a touch of luxury and joy to any occasion.
Today, Dr. Blessing’s business is more than just a bakery—it’s a destination where art meets taste, and where every cake is crafted with love and a deep commitment to excellence.
