I was wandering around town as I so often do and came across a fabulous cake shop called ‘Have Your Cake & Eat It’ on Strathearn Road in the Grange (just around the corner from ‘Toast’)

My curiosity got the better of me and in I went to see the selection. The cakes are brilliant to look at and although I didn’t taste any of them, the smell of the chocolate in the air was enough to make my mouth water.
The owner is a very friendly guy who explained that you can also help MAKE the cake you order, or design one yourself and he will find a way to make it ! I don’t know of anywhere else in Edinburgh that allows a ‘hands on’ approach and it would be great to say that you helped make your wedding cake, or your granny’s birthday one etc
Their website is http://www.haveyourcakeandeatit.org.uk/
All kinds of occasions are catered for, but here is a selection of what they had on display.



Give them a try and support local businesses ! When I have an occasion to celebrate, I’ll be back there in a flash.
Suitable for disabled ? Yes, even flat ground access into the shop

Fabulous cakes! I’m definitely going to check them out.
Yes, you would probably appreciate the ‘hands on’ that you can do with your love of cooking.
Fantastic Cake shop, very friendly service.
I was lucky enough to get a taster of the cake I ordered which was a chocolate mini cake. The finished product was amazing so happy with my purchases and definately will be back.
