RealWeddings Guide
Kat's Cakes is a Melbourne custom cake studio based in Doncaster, creating wedding cakes designed around each couple's personality, colour palette, and venue.
Every cake is individually quoted, so the process starts with a relaxed design consultation at the studio, where couples can bring along inspiration such as Pinterest boards, fabric swatches, invitations, or floral ideas and see real-size display cakes in the showroom.
Consultations run on the first Tuesday of each month, with the studio's café also open for drop-ins. Flavour is treated with as much care as finish: couples can pre-order a tasting pack covering ten flavours from the full range, freshly baked and made for two.
Beyond wedding cakes, the studio also makes cupcakes and special occasion cakes, and its work has earned recommendations from Melbourne reception venues including Vogue Ballroom and Vines of the Yarra Valley.
For couples who want a cake that feels personal rather than off the shelf, and who value a hands-on, tasting-led design process, Kat's Cakes is a well-established local choice.
Since 2002, with over 10,000 custom cakes made from our Doncaster studio. Alannah has led the business since June 2022, continuing the same detail-driven design with her own creative flair.
Custom cakes start from $200, with every design individually priced based on serving size, labour, and complexity.
Book an in-person consultation and quote appointment with Alannah, who tailors each cake's "wow factor" to you — from elegant minimalist through to intricately detailed styles.
Chocolate mud, dark chocolate raspberry, vanilla, vanilla raspberry swirl, vanilla chocolate marble, citrus, peppermint mud, jaffa mud, and red velvet, plus traditional fruit cake at an additional charge.
