I have being looking for a bespoke cake maker in Dulwich and came across a local company called Newell Occasions which was listed on Yell.com. Their website is very impressive and judging by the look of the cakes, they may be a bit expensive too!

Has anyone used them? Where is their shop located? Are they reasonably priced?

Your previous posts show that you know the company because you actually said you went to the owners house to get your cake....yet on this post you are pretending you have not used them...

Hello Biba,


I only joined this Forum today, so I am very sorry if passing on my suggestion a bit late!!


There's a 'bespoke cake company' which I recently ordered a cake from for my BBQ party on Saturday and the cake was exceptional!! I found out about them on Yell.com and the company which is based in Dulwich and it's called 'Newell Occasions'. They are primarily an Events Management company but they also supply Wedding and Celebration cakes to which ever design you wish.


I went to collect my cake and found that it is only a small company which is run from the owners apartment. The building itself is a little off putting,(the one that looks like a ship) but the apartment of which the business operates from was emaculate!! The kitchen sparkled clean which gives great comfort!


The website details is www.newelloccasions.com and they also deliver.

dulwichquine, a while back I was looking for someone to make my son's birthday cake as well and got quite a few recommendations here on the Forum, see this thread: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?29,494641,497790#msg-497790. I ended up ordering ours from Newell Occasions and it turned out really great but all the others seemed good as well. Jennifer from bespokecakeslondon in particular was really helpful but she, just like Ceri, was going for a holiday around the time we needed the cake. Good luck!

I agree Lawrence, for a cake that has ready rolled icing on it and some ribbons does not warrant hundreds and hundreds of pounds, most of the flowers can be bought online and even if it is handmade, near a grand is not worth that price as apart from the flowers there is not much 'skill' involved. The ingredients probably are not organic either. I would never pay that price and ?100 for a train cake is shocking. Anne Marie made a train cake for Henry for ?35 or ?40.


That is why generally I use Ceri as she does not charge a high price just because she can, her prices are realistic ( as is Anne Marie from Constance Cakes) and it tastes good and looks good. Not tried the others.

I did order my two cakes from Newell, they did taste nice, but I still cannot understand why her wedding cakes are so much money as the cakes though nice, were not exceptional, or extra special. Ceri's cakes on the other hands are visually stunning, and the taste is gorgeous! Anne Marie cakes are lovely also.


I know there are a few other mums making cakes so I will have to give them a go also.


I just have issues with someone from Newell Occasions pretending to be someone else recommending their cakes on here, rather than following the lead of Ceri and Anne Marie and posting as themselves.

    • In just two days, we’ll take to the streets to show Donald Trump that he and his politics are not welcome here. On Saturday the global far-right mobilised their biggest protest for decades. We want to show that supporters of Trump and fascism are not the majority – far from it. Here are all the details you need for the day. The march assembles at Portland Place, near the BBC, at 2pm (see assembly blocs below). After speeches here, the march will move off at 3pm. It will then march down Regent St, through Piccadilly Circus, on Whitehall (past Downing St) to our rally at Parliament Square. The rally at Parliament Square will begin around 5pm and finish at 7pm. If you can’t make it to the march, feel free to join the rally after work! (Nearest tube: Westminster). The short, accessible version of the route assembles at the top of Whitehall (SW1A 2DY) at 4.30pm to march to Parliament Square for 5pm. You may also prefer to just join the rally directly at Parliament Square.  Join a bloc – and make friends! Our movement is diverse, and various elements are forming ‘blocs’ on the march to emphasise their visual presence collectively. You can join these blocs or form up behind them:   A) Palestine, near BBC, W1A 1AA B) Climate, W1B 1NS C) Amnesty, around junction with New Cavendish St, W1B 1LU D) Migrants' rights, W1B 1LS E) Jewish bloc, W1B 1QQ F) Ukraine, around junction with Weymouth St, W1B 1JL G) Europe, W1B 1NR More stewards still needed Stewards are a crucial part of keeping the protest safe for everyone to participate. They are a visible point of contact for attendees who may need directions or other assistance. Experience of stewarding is useful but it's also fine if you haven't done it before. You will be issued with a hi-vis jacket and briefed in advance and on the day.  Sign up to be a steward Staying comfortable on the day The demonstration lasts for several hours, so we suggest you should:     Bring a bottle of water and snacks (and eat beforehand)     Charge your phone fully the night before, and bring a portable charger if you can     Go to the loo beforehand (really!)     Buddy up with someone, or stick together as a group – it can be hard to find people easily if people wander off     Coming alone? Protests can be a great place to meet like-minded people. If you feel unsure, you can always talk to a steward     Consider the weather: bring a waterproof jacket or wear suncream where necessary     Wear comfortable clothes and footwear, and use our accessible route if you need to (see above) Bring your friends and family on Wednesday. Let’s make this massive! In solidarity, Stop Trump Coalition
