Ornate, expressive and beautiful, vintage cake decorating is the romantic revival sweeping the world of baking.

Fancy Cakes is a sumptuous guide to mastering the art of baroque buttercream. You will learn the piping techniques that transform simple sponges into edible sculptures: delicate swags, rosettes, pearls, and filigreed borders. You’ll also discover curated color palettes to inspire opulent creations, galleries of design ideas drawn from fashion, art and contemporary culture, and advice on marrying tradition with modern style.
Through 40 designs Roxy and Corinne Mankoo, the acclaimed and innovative cake designers at London’s April’s Baker, lead you through:

Piping instructions for Lambeth and baroque techniques, broken down into achievable steps
Recipes for their original sponge creations, including Matcha and Strawberry, Lemon Earl Grey and Rose and Raspberry
Color palettes, from pastel romance to jewel-toned opulence
Beginner to Expert guides that will have you creating showstopping centerpieces

Whether you’re an adventurous home baker or an experienced decorator, Fancy Cakes invites you to explore the dazzling romance and artistry of vintage buttercream – stunning edible works of art and celebration.

From the sisters behind April's Baker @aprilsbakerlondon
Roxy Mankoo launched April’s Baker in November 2019 after deciding to pursue her dream of running a luxury bespoke cake business. Having trained at Le Cordon Bleu, and learned from time working in bakeries in London and New York, she wanted to dedicate her skill set and eye for detail to creations that blended playful colour palettes with classic charm.

Corinne Mankoo, her sister, subsequently joined the business as co-director. Corinne studied Event Design and Business Management, bringing even more to the unique creativity that makes April’s Baker so special.

Please note if you can add the product to your cart without a pre-order message popping up, then we have stock available for immediate dispatch.

Where there's a "Pre-order" or "Order only" product message, these items are out of stock in-store and not available for immediate supply, the restock estimation times will be noted with the listing.

If you place an order for out-of-stock items, any stock we have in transit will be allocated to fill your order as soon as the delivery arrives or we will include stock when we next order from that supplier.

Pre-Order Items
These are products we generally carry in-store and will often have ordered with the supplier, as soon as the stock arrives we will ship with our standard shipping estimate times or let you know the product is ready for your collection (for Click & Collect orders).

Order Only Items
Many of the brands we carry have a large selection of colours and specialty products that we don't necessarily carry in-store, however we're happy to order these specifically for your purchase.

Please select carefully as, because these are not pieces we carry in-store, these items can not be returned for exchange or refund due to a change of mind.

Occasionally we're advised of delays or out-of-stock issues from our suppliers, we will contact you as soon as we're made aware of these and you can decide how you'd like to proceed from there.
