Artisan cakes are premium cakes handcrafted to order by skilled hands, baked fresh rather than mass-produced, and finished by hand rather than stamped out by a machine, for a quality you can see and taste. At The Cravery, every artisan cake is made individually for your order at our Birmingham factory, never pulled frozen from a shelf, which is exactly what people mean when they look for a true cake shop Birmingham can rely on.
We are an independent, family-run cake factory in Birmingham, trusted with more than 950 five-star Google reviews (4.9★) and holding a 5-star FSA food hygiene rating.
“Artisan” is a word used loosely, so it is worth being clear about what it actually means: a cake made by hand, with care and skill, rather than churned out by the thousand. The difference is in the detail, the freshness, the hand-piped finish, the fact that your cake is made for you and nobody else. It is the opposite of a supermarket cake, and it is all we do.
This guide covers what makes a cake genuinely artisan, the range of occasions we cover, the flavours available, and how to order, with the full craft story towards the end of the page.
Every cake is a fresh brief. Whether it is a showstopping centrepiece or a simple, elegant design, we build it around your idea, your flavours and your occasion rather than offering a fixed catalogue. For fully bespoke work, hand-painted detail, edible photos, sculpted designs, our Personalised Cakes service is where artisan craft really shines.
Configure your cake through our online shop at any hour, or contact us directly for a bespoke design. We confirm the design, flavours and size with you before we begin, then bake it fresh for your date, nothing is frozen and nothing is mass-produced.
Whatever the occasion, the same care goes into every cake. Our artisan birthday cakes turn a birthday into something memorable, handcrafted in any design and flavour you like. For the biggest day of all, our artisan wedding cakes, covered in full on our Wedding Cakes page, bring elegant, hand-finished craft to the celebration. And for business events, launches and client gifting, our Corporate Cakes deliver the same premium quality with a professional finish.
The combination is yours to build. Choose a sponge from Vanilla, Chocolate, Vanilla & Chocolate, Red Velvet and Rainbow Vanilla; add a cream filling from Vanilla, Chocolate, White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Strawberry, Lemon, Oreo, Biscoff, Hazelnut or Cream Cheese; and a jam or spread such as Strawberry, Raspberry, Black Cherry, Lemon Curd, Biscoff, Salted Caramel or Hazelnut. Every filling is prepared by hand in our kitchen, so the flavour is as carefully made as the design on top.
On dietary matters: our base recipe is nut-free, meat-free and alcohol-free and is suitable for vegetarians. We are not an allergen-free kitchen and we do not offer egg-free cakes, and because our kitchen handles a range of ingredients we cannot guarantee against the presence of any allergen. If anyone celebrating has a diagnosed food allergy, please speak to us before ordering.
Every cake is handcrafted to order and delivered across Birmingham and the West Midlands by our own vans, never a postal courier. If you have been searching for artisan cakes near me, we cover the full B1–B99 region plus Walsall, Wolverhampton and Dudley, with a £70 minimum order beyond the B postcodes, and deliver every day between 8:00am and 8:00pm with a one-hour time slot.
Need one quickly? Same-day cake delivery is available when you order by 11am, next-day cake delivery the day before, and collection from our factory daily between 9:00 and 9:30am. For a detailed bespoke design, ordering a few days ahead gives our decorators time to do it justice.
At our cake shop Birmingham, we offer delivery seven days a week, including weekends and most public holidays, so you are never without cake when it matters most.

You will receive a one-hour delivery time slot by email approximately 12 hours before delivery, giving you plenty of notice to plan ahead. To keep your celebration stress-free, we recommend selecting delivery for the day before your event and storing your cake in the fridge until needed.

For example, if you place your order after 11:00 am on Monday, it will be processed on Tuesday and ready for collection or delivery on Wednesday. This allows our team at The Cravery Cakes to prepare your cake to the high standards our customers expect.
No, our cake shop Birmingham is unable to guarantee an exact delivery time. However, you will receive a one-hour delivery time slot by email approximately 12 hours before your scheduled delivery, giving you plenty of notice to plan ahead.
For added peace of mind, we recommend selecting delivery for the day before your event and storing your cake in the fridge. This ensures everything is ready on time, allowing you to relax and enjoy your celebration without any last-minute stress.
Unfortunately, no. Our cake shop Birmingham delivers to all B1 to B99 postcodes, and we use advanced route management software to optimise delivery routes and timings. Changing one delivery slot would affect other customers and disrupt the carefully planned schedule, so we are unable to adjust delivery time windows once they have been allocated.
We appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure every cake is delivered efficiently, safely, and on time.
Yes, our cake shop Birmingham can accommodate a change of delivery address if you contact us before 8:00 am on the day of delivery and the new address is within half a mile of the original location. Because we deliver across all B1 to B99 postcodes using carefully optimised routes, changes beyond this distance may disrupt other customers’ deliveries and therefore cannot be guaranteed.
We appreciate your understanding as we work hard to ensure every cake is delivered efficiently, safely, and on time.
Absolutely! Our cake shop Birmingham makes surprise cake deliveries easy. Simply enter the recipient’s address and contact number at checkout, and add a note in the order comments to let us know it is a surprise. Our team will take care of the rest.
Please ensure that someone is available to receive the cake during the allocated delivery window, as missed deliveries may occur if no one is present at the address. We want your surprise celebration to go perfectly.

Anyone can use the word, so here is exactly what it means at The Cravery, the things that make us a genuine artisan cake shop rather than a re-seller.
Every single cake is made individually for your order. We do not bake to stock or hold a freezer of ready-made cakes, your cake is built for you and your occasion, from scratch.
Freshness is the heart of an artisan cake. We bake for your date so your cake arrives fresh, never defrosted, a difference you can taste in the very first bite.
The detail is all human. Our decorators hand-pipe, sculpt and finish every cake themselves, so the buttercream work and the little touches are the product of real skill, not a machine.
An artisan cake is personal by definition. We design around your idea, your colours and your flavours, so no two cakes are ever quite the same, the opposite of an identical, mass-produced supermarket cake.
We are an independent, family-run Birmingham factory, not a chain. That care shows in our 950+ five-star Google reviews and our 5-star FSA food hygiene rating, the kind of trust you can only earn one handcrafted cake at a time.
That is what artisan means to us, and what goes into every cake we make.
Ready for a cake made properly, by hand? Browse the range and order online in minutes, we accept Apple Pay, Google Pay, Amazon Pay, PayPal, Klarna and Clearpay through Stripe, around the clock. For a bespoke artisan design, message us on WhatsApp and we will bring your idea to life. You can also explore the full range from Cake Makers across Birmingham and the West Midlands.
