Brian Roche
Cake Designer & Owner – Baker Boy Cakes
My passion for baking stems from my grandmother and then my own mum who I helped with baking even as a small child. During my school days I went on to study home Economics to Junior cert level, training then as a chef for a number of years before following my dreams and travelling to Birmingham to study a Diploma in Bakery and I’ve never looked back.
After being a bakery supervisor for 15 years I decided to launch Baker Boy Cakes part-time in 2014 and in June 2016 Baker Boy Cakes became my full time career working from my home in East Cork.
At Baker Boy Cakes, I aim to provide unique personalised cakes for all special occasions from weddings to birthdays to any celebration. I specialise in Wedding cakes and deliver to many hotels around Cork City and county, any of which that are within a 30 minute drive are delivered free of charge.
The cakes which are individually designed are homemade using the finest of ingredients. They are handcrafted by me, ensuring each cake is as perfect as can be and come in an array of flavours. There’s something to suit everyone’s taste buds for such occasions as Wedding Cakes, Christenings, Birthdays, Communions, Confirmation or just to mark any specific occasion.
You can be confident in knowing that whatever you choose in both flavour and design, it will be freshly made to your requirements, just for you.
Wedding cakes are my favorite, I love working with the bride and groom to bring details of their wedding in to the design of their wedding cake, be it lace from the dress, matching the colour scheme, their wedding theme or creating handmade sugar craft flowers to match the bridal bouquet – each and every wedding cake is so unique and personal.
