Testimonials

Joanne did an amazing job of our son’s 21st birthday cake. She designed a cake to match our American Graffiti theme and everyone thought it was fabulous. Not only did it look great but tasted delicious too. The chocolate and raspberry combination was superb! I would definitely recommend Joanne for any cake and will definitely use her for any occasion in the future. Five Stars!!

Lisa Bates

I enjoyed my first class at Fondant Shed so much I keep coming back for more!
Joanne is an excellent teacher and even the most inexperienced student comes out with something they can be proud of. The Fondant Shed shop has everything you need to keep decorating and all at great prices. I can’t recommend Fondant Shed highly enough!!

Jackie Tyack

Having done several of Joanne’s enjoyable classes at Fondant Shed studio, I can not recommend her skills & knowledge highly enough. Classes are fun, creative, productive & informative. Joanne is very willing to share her knowledge & wonderful craft with her students in a relaxed & engaging manner.
Will be going back for another class soon.

Donna Jackson

The Fondant Shed is amazing!! Joanne is the creative talent behind the yummy and stunning cakes I have been lucky to experience. I asked Joanne to help with our wedding cake, and my son’s 21st cake. Joanne is always helpful and willing to discuss and deliver what has been exceptional cakes.
Always going the extra mile and always finishing on time. Nothing ever a problem to work with you to achieve a beautiful presentation & delicious tasting cakes. Joanne, a professional plus in all she does would highly recommend her to anyone.

The cake you made for my parents 65th wedding anniversary was so fantastic and the lovely little cupcakes piped with the Buttercream Rose’s a flower of their generation one for each grandchild and great grandchild. The heart shaped cake with the blue lace and ribbon looked lovely. I’d recommend Jo-Anne to make any cake you wanted I’ll be back.

Sue Thomson

Awesome set up, relaxing atmosphere. Small classes, lots of individual attention and teaching. We loved every minute of it. Will definitely be back.

It remains one of the most rewarding activities that we have done. It is such a moral booster. Relaxing, exciting, inspiring with the most amazing results.

Custom Cakes

Every cake artist has different skills. They are masters of the works they complete, however we are never great at everything.
Fondant Shed has had some challenging commissions but we have never accepted one I have not been confident I wouldn’t achieve. We will always talk about your expectations before accepting your request and ensure we are both confident the cake required can actually be made to WOW you and your guests.  

Most customers do not realise the work and time required in creating a cake so the more notice and details you can give us the better. We can schedule and create to exceed your expectations.  

Delivery can be challenging and some cakes final construction needs to be done on site (fees apply). Cakes that are collected will be boxed ready for travel but once they leave, Fondant Shed can not take responsibility for any damages or mishaps. 

All requests are quoted, once accepted a Deposit of 50% is required to CONFIRM all orders and balance must be paid ONE WEEK PRIOR to collection or delivery. 

Classes

Start your sugar paste and cake decorating journey by booking a class with Fondant Shed. Most classes are suitable for ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS. 

Classes are small so I can give  you my absolute attention. They are relaxed and lots of fun. If you do one class and think NO this is not for me you have lost nothing as everything is supplied and you get to take home your creation. If you do your first class and are HOOKED (like many before you) we have loads to offer to set  you on your sugar paste journey. We have a small store to purchase the tools and products you will need to practice at home.

Classes run WEEKDAYS Monday to Friday either 10am or 6pm.  You let me know what class and day you require, then I will schedule a new class or pop you into one already booked.  It only takes a phone call 027 324 5020
