Dream Cakes are a lovely little independent business that makes everything themselves, from the…read morecakes to the icing, the staff are highly talented and creative. They make amazing little characters and people look-a-likes out of icing to suit every occasion. The shop is full of photographs of previous creations, revealing exactly how the store owners can capture people's imaginations. I've been in there to get a cake made from my Grandad's 90th Birthday, and they developed an amazing little figure of my Grandad doing his gardening. Additionally, you can choose exactly what type of cake you want, so you don't have to stick to the typical sponge. I bought fruitcake for my Grandad, which was then decorated accordingly. By the time it's decorated, you really feel bad eating this piece of artwork, but obviously, the freshness and flavour tastes as good as it looks. By far the greatest cake makers in Birmingham, Dream Cakes are well worth a visit, especially if you want to make someone's birthday that little bit more special.

This place is absolutely wonderful! The cake tasted as amazing as it looked!! Definitely recommend!…read moreX

I knew about Boutique Baking from the various wedding people who had oooed and ahhhed over their…read morecreations.. but it wasn't until I asked her to create a cake and a set of personalised cupcakes for a hen do that I properly fell in love. Firstly - the personalised cupcakes. Each individually boxed, these light airy cupcakes were topped with delicate glittery heavenly buttercream, and with each girl's name piped across the top. Fab. SECONDLY (and more importantly) the cake. THE CAKE. It was a solid gigantic cupcake. Boxed up, it was reasonably unassuming (aside from height and weight which should have given away the awesomeness that was contained within..) but upon opening the seal on the box, a deep whiff of chocolate escaped and the girls all started doing little happy dances. We peeled the box away, and all gawped at what sat before us. Something that should have it's own category - just enough flour to make it constitute a cake, but really it was much more like eating spongey chocolate. Eating this cake made my insides do happy flips. Chocolate, chocolate, more chocolate. Delicious luxuriously deep buttercream on the top and the middle, and the rest was incredible dense crumbly beautiful sponge. I realise this review makes it sound a bit like it was a religious experience, but I can't begin to find the words that will do this cake justice. So yeah. You need a cake? You need Boutique Baking. (YUM!)

My only surviving Grandparent turned 95 recently and we used this company's service to create a…read more95th birthday present she would remember. The cake was supposed to represent her strength and resolve to the powers of the grim reaper. We decided on a three tier fruitcake with 95 written in icing all over the front of it. Creativity has always been at the heart of our philosophy at Boutique Baking, the director, Vickie, told me. Vickie's ethos is to create distinctive and delicious delights for her customers whilst keeping to their personal budget. She works closely with clients to develop bespoke creations, specialising in events where only the unique will do. The cake studio which provided the opportunity to see examples of their work, try samples, discuss individual requirements and see their interesting range of products available to hire was an interesting edge to the business. I was pleased with the end result and will use this company again.

Both my brother and I have treated mom to a pretty bouquet of posies for her birthday and Mother's Day, but that's small-scale. As well as elaborate, decorative bouquets for those times you really want to splash out, I'd recommend this cute independent to bridezillas planning their special day as one friend was really pleased with the lilies she requested for her post-nuptial reception. Turnaround is quick and the staff are really pleasant and helpful, offering advice and suggestions to someone like me who hasn't got a clue where flowers are concerned. The only drawback is you might forget it's there if you don't often walk down the Arcade - so hopefully this review has pointed it out to you!

Both wonderfully decorated and well cared for, many florists should take note. They cover any occasion that you may have requiring flowers. They offer bridal and wedding services, contracts for flower arrangements, handmade bespoke flower arrangements, gifts, toys and teddies to accessorise, and even have a licence to sell champagne and wine! A perfect little shop with friendly and enthusiastic customer service.

The food was all freshly prepared at the venue and the waiter staff were well mannered and helpful. The only reason I did not go the full five stars is because I there were some guests that had to wait for starters and some only received a part of what was on the menu. This may have had more to do with the emergence of unexpected guests but I can only hope that Steve and the crew think about this possibility going forward. Would recommend them without a second thought.
