A birthday cake should look like the person it is for. That is difficult to do from a supermarket chiller and easy to do when someone makes it by hand.
Get a Free QuoteEnfield is a large, established north London borough with a strong mix of young families, long-settled households and a busy town centre. Bake You Happy makes birthday cakes by hand for families right across the area, and delivers them personally rather than sending them by courier.
Every cake is designed from scratch with you. There is no catalogue to pick from and no set menu of shapes. You tell Paulina about the occasion, the people and the look you have in mind, and she builds the design around that.
Enfield is a family borough. A great deal of what we make for EN1 and EN2 is children's birthdays and the big round-number birthdays, often for houses full of relatives. Parties tend to be at home, in a hall or in one of the parks when the weather allows, which changes what works. A cake going to Enfield Town Park in July needs different thinking from one going into a warm front room in December.
We cover the whole of Enfield and the EN1, EN2 and EN3 postcodes, including Enfield Town, Bush Hill Park, Winchmore Hill, Forty Hill, Grange Park, Enfield Chase, Southbury, Ponders End, Clay Hill and Botany Bay. If you are just outside that, ask anyway, we usually can.
We deliver to homes, halls, churches and venues throughout the area. Places we know well in and around Enfield include:
If your party is outdoors in summer, tell us. Buttercream and heat do not get on, and there are finishes that hold up far better than others.
If your celebration is somewhere else entirely, that is no problem at all. Give us the venue name and address and we will speak to them directly about access and timing.
Our kitchen sits about 15 minutes from Enfield, which matters more than it sounds. A tiered cake does not travel well, and a shorter journey means less time in the car and a cake that arrives exactly as it left. We deliver it ourselves and, for tiered cakes, assemble it on site rather than moving it built.
Single tier birthday cakes start from £60 for a six inch and £80 for an eight inch. Two tier cakes start from £120 and number cakes from £70. A £50 deposit secures your date, with the balance due before delivery. There is a full breakdown on our cake prices page.
Send Paulina a message with your date, roughly how many people you are feeding, and any idea of the look you want, even a rough one. She will reply personally, talk it through with you and send a quote. You can also read the full ordering guide first if you prefer.
Yes. We deliver across Enfield and the surrounding EN1, EN2 and EN3 area, including Enfield Town, Bush Hill Park, Winchmore Hill, Forty Hill and the rest of the neighbourhood. Our kitchen is about 15 minutes away, so your cake travels a short distance and arrives in good condition.
Single tier birthday cakes start from £60 for a six inch and £80 for an eight inch. Two tier cakes start from £120 and number cakes from £70. Every cake is quoted individually once we know the size, the design and the date.
Most birthday cakes need about a week's notice. Simple designs can sometimes be done in two or three days, so it is worth asking even at short notice.
Yes. We regularly deliver to homes, halls and venues around Enfield, including places such as Forty Hall Estate and Capel Manor Gardens. Just give us the venue name, the address and a contact on the day and we will arrange the timing directly with them.
Yes. We make vegan and gluten free cakes with the same designs and finishes as everything else, usually with a small supplement. Everything is baked in a kitchen that handles nuts, gluten, wheat, dairy and egg, so we label clearly but cannot promise an item is free from all traces.
Every cake is designed from scratch, so there is no price list to pick from. Send a few details and Paulina will reply personally with ideas and a quote. It costs nothing and there is no obligation.
She reads every enquiry herself and will reply to you personally, usually within a day. Her reply will come from paulina@bakeyouhappy.co, so do add that to your contacts.
If your date is close, or you would rather just talk it through, message her on WhatsApp on 07514 660 451 and she will come back to you faster.
