The ErgoPin is back, and it’s brought a new partner 🔥

Rolling out paste by hand means gripping, pressing and twisting your wrists, sheet after sheet. The ErgoPin changes that. The handle moves independently of the pin, so you roll with steady, even pressure and far less strain 🙌

And now it has a partner: the new Smooth Rolling Pin, created with Ekat’s Australia 🩶

✔️ Non-stick finish that fondant releases from cleanly
✔️ Food-grade PP that won’t soak up grease or moisture
✔️ Made for the ErgoPin handle, and it works by hand too
✔️ 12 inch professional size for wide, even sheets

Pre order today and it’s yours before Christmas 🎄

The scariest thing about sculpted cakes? Getting them to stand up 👹

Introducing PropUtility X The Bake King: The Bust Structure Kit, arriving just in time for Halloween 🎃

Sculpted busts are some of the most jaw dropping cakes out there, but getting a heavy head and shoulders to stand tall, hold their shape and survive the journey to the table is a real challenge. So we teamed up with the brilliant Ben Cullen The Bakeking - Ben Cullen to create a structure built for exactly that 💫

Inside the kit you’ll find a sturdy base board, a stainless steel threaded rod, a shaped support plate, locking nuts and two PropUtility spanners. Fully modular, food safe and transport ready, just like the rest of the PropUtility range, so you can build any cake, your way 🖤

A huge thank you to Ben for this scaretastic collaboration.

The darkest cake you’ll see this Halloween 🕷️🖤

Every web, every swag, every frill piped by hand in pure black buttercream. A spider piped straight onto a clear tier, standing over its intricate network of webs below 🙌

Our brand ambassador Alex created this showstopper and we can’t stop watching it come to life. Sound on, lights low 🎃

Would you go all black for your celebration cake? Tell us below 👇 We definitely would 🔥

Happy Halloween from all of us 🖤

Ten designs, one question: which is your favourite? ❤️

Just a few of the beautiful cake designs Savanna has created, and we can’t pick a favourite. From soft florals and gold detailing to bold black tiers and a monogram finish, every one shows how much easier it is to plan a cake when you can see it first 🙌

Each design was drawn on Procreate using Cake Sketching & Cake Design Tools’s cake design stamps, available through Prop Options. Perfect for sketching ideas for your clients, mapping out tiers and sizes, and showing exactly what you have in mind before a single sponge goes in the oven 🔥

Which one is your favourite? Tell us the number in the comments 👇

One deep red, top to bottom, and it never reads as one heavy block. This cake by Luxury Wedding & Celebration Cakes | Hampshire 🇬🇧 glows in glamour with each tier adding depth to the design ❤️

Under winter candlelight, smooth icing goes flat. Here sculpted sugar flowers carry the texture, and a clear acrylic spacer lets the light through.

Swipe for the pieces that do the same job. Our gold and silver metallic separators are from £36, was £55, until 23:59 on Sunday 1 November. No code needed. PropBundles available too 😍

Clear or gold on a dark winter cake?

A black cake hides nothing, except sometimes its own shape 🤓

Black absorbs light. Stack dark tiers straight on top of each other and a four tier cake can flatten into one dark column, especially by candlelight 🕯️

The cakes that get it right all do three things:

🖤 Texture gives the light something to catch, so every tier still reads.
🖤 Contrast draws the outline, whether that’s white panels, gold separators or clear acrylic that lets the cake float.
🖤 The stand lifts it clear of dark linen, so the silhouette holds even in low light.

For Halloween, let the materials set the mood. Lace, ivory and red roses, black tapers and a gilded mirror say the season without a single pumpkin in sight 🎃 … although we love a pumpkin too 😍😉

Swipe through for six ways to do it 🔥

Would you take on a black wedding cake, or does the thought of all that colouring make you nervous?

A note about November and our plans for Cake International 📣

It’s less than two weeks until you’ll be walking that pink carpet and enjoying everything Cake International has to offer 🩷 You may have been wondering our plans for 2026 and so today we’re sharing that we won’t be exhibiting at Cake International this year.

After two of the biggest years we’ve ever had at the NEC, creating showstopping entrances and bringing the party, we’re taking a little break to plan for what’s coming next. Showing up the way we like to, with something genuinely new rather than something that will do, takes a huge amount or time and commitment…there’s a reason the Olympics only come round every four years 😉 And whilst we won’t make you wait that long, we’re taking a moment of reflection as we look forward to 2027, where our plans are already being sketched out…and they will be worth the wait 😁

You’ll still find plenty of us on the show floor though! 🤩

Many of our PropPartners will be there across the weekend, carrying out workshops, on the main stage, and in the Cake Catwalk too, so do drop by and say hello to them all! They would love your support ❤️

Our structure kits will be in action with Cakes by Carol on stand D15 🙌

You’ll find our Heritage rolling pins doing what they do best alongside Saracino as our fabulous collaboration continues 😍 Visit stand F40 ☺️

And the Cake Catwalk, of course, which we wouldn’t miss for anything! With a fabulous array of cake artists from across the globe, it’s an event not to be missed, taking place on Friday 6th and Saturday 7th 🔥📸

Go and say hello to them all from us. Have a brilliant weekend, enjoy every bit of it, and we’ll see you in 2027 ☺️
