Meet your cake artist

Hello,
I’m Fran.

Artist, baker and the hands behind every cake at The Botanical Cake Company.

Ruthin · North Wales

Where it began

Two loves,
brought together.

My love of baking began in my grandmother’s kitchen. My eye for shape, colour and detail came from a background in art and design.

The Botanical Cake Company is where those two parts of me meet. Every cake begins with listening: to the atmosphere you want, the flowers you’ve chosen, the setting and the little details that make the wedding unmistakably yours.

I work from my studio in Ruthin and create cakes for celebrations across North Wales, Cheshire and beyond. Because I make every element myself, I take on a limited number of weddings and give each one the time it deserves.

My approach

“I want your cake to look as though it could only ever have belonged to your wedding.”

The botanical signature

Flowers that invite a closer look.

Sugar flowers are at the heart of my work. I study the curve of a petal, the way colour deepens towards its centre and the natural irregularities that make a bloom feel alive.

Each flower is shaped and finished by hand. They can echo your bouquet, mark a meaningful season or bring a favourite flower into the design—and many couples keep them long after the cake has been enjoyed.

What matters to me

Beautiful work.
A calm experience.

01

Personal, never prescribed

You don’t need a finished design before we talk. I’ll help turn the colours, flowers and feeling of your day into a cake that feels like you.

02

As delicious as it looks

The design may be what catches the eye, but flavour matters just as much. Every tier is baked to be properly enjoyed.

03

Care from start to finish

From the first sketch to delivery and setup at your venue, I look after the details so this part of your planning feels easy.
