Describing a face to a decorator and hoping it comes out right is a gamble. Sending us the actual picture isn't. We print it straight onto edible icing and set it on top of the cake, so what you get matches the photo you chose rather than someone's interpretation of it.
If you've been searching for photo cakes near you because you want your actual image printed on the cake instead of a hand-drawn version, this collection is made for you.
Getting Your Picture Onto the Cake
Choose your preferred cake size and sponge, then upload your photo and any personalised message during checkout. We take it from there, printing your photo cake topper and getting it fitted onto the cake before it's boxed up.
Where This Kind of Cake Works Best
A printed picture on top suits more occasions than people expect, birthdays, retirements, reunions, or just marking a milestone with someone's actual face on the table rather than a generic design. A photo birthday cake in particular tends to land better than a standard one, since the person it's for can see themselves on it straight away.
Great Photo Cakes Start with Excellent Print Quality
A blurry or faded print undoes the whole point of ordering one of these. We use edible ink printing that keeps colours sharp and details clear, so the topper actually looks like the photo you sent rather than a rough approximation of it.
Baked Fresh, Not Pulled From a Freezer
The sponge beneath your cake is freshly baked for your chosen delivery date, just like every other cake we make. Nothing is defrosted or held in storage waiting for an order, it goes into the oven once you've confirmed the date and the photo.

Common Questions
Where can I order photo cakes near me in Birmingham?
Right here. We print and bake photo cakes across Birmingham, all ordered directly through this page.
What format should my photo be in?
For the best results, upload a clear, well-lit JPEG or PNG image. Higher resolution photos print more sharply as a photo cake topper, so avoid heavily cropped or low-quality images where possible.
Can I add text alongside the photo?
Yes, there's a space at checkout to add a name, age, or short message to go with the printed image.
Is this suitable as a photo birthday cake for children?
Yes, it's one of the most popular uses for this collection. Just upload the photo and let us know the age at checkout if you'd like it added.
How much notice do you need for an order?
A few days' notice helps us fit the printing and baking into the schedule properly. Checkout will show what's available for your date.
Can I have it delivered to someone else's address?
Yes, enter their Birmingham address at checkout instead of your own and we'll deliver it there.
Do you deliver outside Birmingham?
Not currently. Delivery is limited to addresses within Birmingham.
