Life Cakes - Because life is sweet ...

If you are looking for something really special to help celebrate a significant event Deva can craft you an amazing Life Cake.

The cakes reflect a client's life events and inflences, including their friends, family and pets. In fact, everything that has gone into making them the person/people they are today.

A hand-decorated, cold porcelain topper, sits upon a decorated cake of your choice. After the cake is eaten, the topper provides a permanent memento of the client's life and becomes an independent work of art for the future.

Life Story: Amanda loves champagne and prosecco, so each tier of the cake is entwined with a different variety of grape. Stephen, who is a lighting engineer, is mad about scuba diving and they both enjoy skiing. For years they had a 'dog fund' and eventually saved enough money to buy their treasured Cockerpoo, Delilah. Their cake features all these things, as well as family holidays, walking in Richmond park and a love of the arts.
