Project Overview

A cake house, made to
feel like a gift.

Katie's Cake House needed a digital home that matched the quality of what leaves the kitchen, handcrafted celebration cakes and patisserie, baked to order with single-origin chocolate and seasonal fruit. The brand deserved more than a generic bakery template.


The goal was to build a site that feels as considered as the cakes themselves: warm, elegant, and unmistakably small batch, while making it simple for customers to browse the range or enquire about a wedding order.

The Challenge

Standing out in a
crowded market.

Small batch cake studios are easy to overlook online, competing against mass-market bakeries with generic, forgettable websites. Katie's Cake House needed a presence that communicated craft and quality at a glance, and made enquiring about weddings or celebration orders feel effortless.

The Solution

A site as thoughtful
as the cakes.

The site was shaped around warmth and craftsmanship: a clear hero introduction, an easy path to browse the range, and a dedicated route for wedding enquiries. Every element was designed to reflect the same intention behind every cake that leaves the kitchen.

Key Features
01
Warm, Editorial Hero

A confident opening statement paired with a rich product photograph, setting the tone for the craftsmanship behind every order.

02
Clear Path to Browse or Enquire

Two distinct calls to action, browsing the range and enquiring about weddings, so every visitor finds their next step immediately.

03
Considered Shop Experience

A simple, elegant shop structure that lets customers explore the range without friction, with cart and checkout kept effortless.

04
Brand-Aligned Presentation

Warm neutrals, refined serif typography, and gold accents were used throughout to reflect the boutique, small batch identity of the brand.

Visual Showcase
Design Intent
"Every cake leaves the kitchen tied like a gift, the site needed to feel the same way."
