We also sell ready made sponges and fruit cakes.

Testimonial :

 

Finally got round to writing a review for this amazing place. Louise is fantastic!!! After finding this place 2 years ago we have been getting cheese and pork pies from her ever since. We loved it so much we asked her to make us a Wedding Cheese cake and a Cake of Pork Pies and Chutneys for our Guests. Everyone commented on how great it was. Lou is really knowledgeable and really knows her stuff. Can’t recommend this place enough!! Fabulous!!!

Orchard House Patisserie is an Award Winning Patisserie based in rural Staffordshire. Specialising in creating uniquely handcrafted celebration cakes for all occasions. Orchard House is a family business creating edible pieces of art from a quirky barn converted unit at Craythorne Farm in Stretton, Burton-upon-Trent.

 

We also create fine Patisserie and Confectionery products for all corporate events from wedding favours, cupcakes, chocolates, biscuits, macaroons, etc. Everyday bakes like fresh bread, pastries, scones, traybakes and even ice cream are also available daily over the counter. Fresh local ingredients are used to create all these products, especially eggs which we use a lot off! These are bought from a local farm in Stretton just around the corner.

"Born and bred in Malaysia, I was always surrounded by a variety of cakes and desserts from it’s multi-racial and multi-cultural society. Growing up with a mum who loved to bake, I learned to bake from a very young age helping her with orders which during festivals like Chinese New Year meant making and decorating thousands of cookies and lots of cakes!

 

After many years working as a software developer and systems engineer in the computer industry (yup! I was one of those geeks) and several more in the food and beverage and hotel industry, it was a friend who somehow persuaded me to open a cake business. I did, and I have never looked back since! How could I when I have finally found my passion!

"Wow! Michele's creation for my Mum's 80th has to be one of the best celebration cakes I've tasted (I'd even go as far as to say that it trumped the cake that we had from Patisserie Valerie for our wedding 10 years ago). Can't wait for Dad's 80th next year so that we have an excuse to go back for more!"

"Michele is amazing and last month created the most beautiful wedding cake we have seen and tasted. It was just what we wanted and tasted beautiful. 
This is the second cake we have had from Michele after my husband surprised me with a 30th cake made by Michele which was absolutely fantastic! 
We can not thank Michele enough for all she has done to make both my birthday and our wedding so very special! 100% recommended! 
Michele we will definitely be coming back!"

Customised cakes and treats lovingly handcrafted for yourspecial occasion

 

I have always had a passion for baking and my love of cake decorating started when I made my son's first birthday cake. I was soon creating cakes for friends and family who encouraged me to start my own business and here I am!

 

I registered as a home based business in 2015 and since then have consistently received a 5* rating from Environmental Health. I have a Level 2 Food Hygiene Certificate and am fully insured. I have entered international competitions and I am a member of the British Sugar Craft Guild.

 

My style ranges from modern, contemporary and elegant wedding cakes to cute children's cakes to simple baked goods full of flavour. I love to create cakes with a beautifully smooth iced finish and to catch the eye with contrasting colours and lots of textures. It's really important to me that anything I bake tastes as good as it looks. I also have a passion for making pretty sugar flowers.

 

I only take on limited wedding cake orders so I can keep up my exacting standards and put all my attention into making a centrepiece for your special day.

 

Complementary consultations can be arranged to make sure I get every little detail right as well as cake tastings (cake samples can be posted).
