Allow me to introduce myself!
New here, or been around a while? Either way…
Hi, I’m Catherine, the “CJ” behind CJ Bakes and Cakes!
I’m a 30-year-old baker based in Thirsk, North Yorkshire, and I’ve been whisking, folding and decorating my way through the cake world ever since I officially became an adult (which, let’s be honest, was mostly just an excuse to buy more piping nozzles).
By day, I’m living that 9-5 life… by night (and weekends), I’m your friendly neighbourhood buttercream queen and brownie wizard, creating custom bakes that taste just as good as they look.
I specialise in all things buttercream and with brownies, the fudgier, the better, right?
My ultimate treat? Good ol’ carrot cake - don’t judge me until you’ve tried it with a dollop of cream cheese icing. Life-changing.
Over on my socials I share my baking creations, behind-the-scenes messes (I mean magic), and occasional sugar-fuelled ramblings. Whether you’re here to order, browse, drool or just support, I’m so glad you’re here!
Need something in particular?
Fill out some information and let me know what you’d like and I’ll be in touch as soon as possible!
