20cm Round Chocolate Cake – €30 (serves 10-12)

12 Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Icing – €21 (€1.75 each)

Hi Mark & Jen,

The cupcakes were FABULOUS!! They looked spectacular and even though I thought a 14 course dinner would fill everyone up, all of the guests flocked to find their cupcake as soon as we cut the cake! The name flags worked a treat and we loved the artwork that you produced for us, making them unique and reflective of us and our passions. The cakes were delicious and perfect for after our meal, light and refreshing, people came back for a second helping of the large cutting cake once their cupcake was devoured!

Really impressed with it all and would heartily recommend to anyone else – it was a pleasure.

A lady called Joanna called us on Friday from Chicago and asked us to deliver 12 Valentines Day ‘Red Velvet’ cupcakes to her cousin in Marbella, which we duly did at 12.00 today. Her cousin, Zora, turns out to be one of the brains behind the excellent blog, ‘Marbella Family Fun‘ – we look forward to a review of our cupcakes!

Joanna Chodakowska said…

Mark!! You made our Valentines like no one else could..I live in Chicago USA and needed to send something special for Valentines to my cousin Zora and her family who lives in Marbella. You promissed and delivered like you said you would, 12 red velvet cupcakes and on a Sunday. You’re in our hearts!!

Hi Mark – oh my gosh, the cake was soooo amazing – thanks sooo much… Scott has taken the rest of it into his office today – he had to practically force it off me as I didn’t want to see it go ha ha! Pete our dog loved it – although we only gave him a tiny piece he seemed very keen for seconds ha ha!

Big, massive thank you!

We were told about this review on Marbella Guide by a friend this evening and having had a good read, would like to thank Craig Edmonds (Internet Guru!) for such lovely feedback :)

The cake and cupcake tower was brilliant and the kids and parents loved them to the last crumb. Thanks Mark and Jen for such a great quality service. I will be recommending cakemarbella.com to everyone I know.

These cupcakes were absolutely amazing. The best cakes ever… So smooth and yummy and they looked gorgeous on the tower. It was a surprise party and my mum was over the moon, tears of happiness were shed. I really wanted to try all of the cupcakes but unfortunately they vanished in minutes! A great testament to how they taste.

I will definately be ordering again for other parties in sunny Spain.

Thank u so much Mark and Jen. x

Estos pasteles eran absolutamente increíble. Las mejores tortas … Así que cada vez suave y delicioso y se veían magníficos en la torre. Fue una fiesta sorpresa y mi madre estaba en la luna, lágrimas de felicidad se derramaron. Tenía muchas ganas de probar todas las cupcakes pero desafortunadamente desapareció en minutos! Un gran testimonio de su sabor.

Definitivamente voy a estar de volver a ordenar a las demás partes en la soleada España.

Muchas gracias Mark y Jen. x

What better way to celebrate the first birthday of an adorable little girl than some ‘Enchanted Fairy’ cupcakes! Camille gave me such a beautiful smile as I delivered them this afternoon, I am convinced she knew what was in the shiny gold cake boxes!

Camille’s Mum is fellow blogger ‘Travels with a Gourmet‘, (click the link and check out her fab food blog) and I have a feeling little Camille will follow in her mother’s footsteps with a real passion for good food!

This morning we delivered a box of 12 Carrot and a box of 12 Chocolate cupcakes to Leslie in Marbella, who was giving them as a gift to a friend at her birthday lunch today. Judging by Leslie’s enthusiastic reaction when she opened the boxes this morning, Tiara may only have received one of the two boxes!

Hi Mark,

The cake and the cupcakes were delicious!!!! Max loved the Spiderman!!! and the kids loved the cupcakes!!!! Lots of my friends are planning on ordering some – I gave them your cards. Thanks!

La torta y los bizcochos estaban deliciosos!! Max encantó el Spiderman!!! y los niños les encantó la cupcakes!!! Muchos de mis amigos están planeando ordenar algunos – que les di las cartas. Gracias!

Party at Kidz Kingdom, Cancelada

Kidz Kingdom at Cancelada was the venue for Maxim’s 3rd Birthday, where we have just delivered a tower of 36 chocolate cupcakes and a chocolate top cake – it was filling up rapidly as we left, so the party should be in full swing as I type this – very noisy and lots of chocolatey mouths – just as a 3rd birthday party should be! Happy Birthday, Maxim!

Mark, thank you so much for doing this. The cupcakes were delicious. People were so stunned when I opened the box!

I obviously had the “Happy Birthday Tony”, the Guns n’ Roses and a few more. Some of them took graphics home!

We now have some beautiful photographs taken by Jennifer Jane (jjweddingphotography.com) at Sofie & Nathan’s wedding at Bono’s Beach, El Rosario a couple of weekends ago, and we would like to share them with you!

We love music with a passion, so to do these ‘Rock’ cupcakes to celebrate music fanatic Tony’s birthday was a pleasure! We created graphics for all his favourite bands and guitars as well as plectrums and volume knobs… and even a stack of Marshall speakers! Happy Birthday, Tony ;)

Not only did the cakes look beautiful, they tasted absolutely delicious ! Mark delivered on time and set the cake stand up, a stunning centerpiece for our daughters 1st birthday. My favorite was the lemon. Thank you Mark.

Cupcakes were a big “hit”!

Great for a big party as you don’t need crockery or cutlery, just need to lick your fingers. Following week ordered the Courgette cupcakes for a dinner party and they too were delish!!

Great service from Mark. Well worth it!

Our Louie turned 6 today, and after a serious assault on the aqua park at Algeciras, we headed home for a spooky family supper party topped off with Frankenstein’s monster rising up out of a ‘Schlock Horror, B Movie’ Red Velvet Birthday Cake!

Scary, and frighteningly tasty!!

Not our usual theme, for sure, but when we were asked to supply the cupcakes for Constantin’s 13th birthday party, we asked what he was ‘into’… the answer was GUNS! So, eager to please, we rocked our first camouflage icing (!) and some military graphic toppers, complete with dog tags, targets and lots of bullet holes!

Founder of Cake Marbella, gorgeous wife, genius baker and mum to Dylan and Louie, it is Jen’s birthday today – Happy Birthday, from all your team – we love you ;-) x

Hi Mark,

The food you delivered to the villa was absolutely gorgeous! All of us commented on how the lasagne was the best we had ever had and the cheesecake went down a treat! I stuck to the sticky toffee pudding and loved it.

Your service was also immaculate and if I am ever back in Marbella, I would come to you again in an instant! (I will recommend you to anyone I know who goes out there).

Thanks for all your help, you made our first night at the villa hassle free and utterly enjoyable!

Last night saw the opening party at Suite del Mar, at Hotel Puente Romano. A tower of 80 of our Red Velvet cupcakes served as a centrepiece amongst the lush and funky surroundings . With a guest list that has included Prince Harry, Jodie Kidd and Jay Kay, Suite did it again with Marbella’s party people wining, dining and dancing the night away, seeing in the Summer 2009 season in typically chic but laid back style. Now I remember why I live out here!

Regular Red Velvet Cupcakes (deep red chocolate sponge with vanilla cream cheese icing)
€120 (including branded graphic toppers) for 80 cupcakes
+ €20 rental of cupcake display tower.

We have just got back from the serene Amanhavis Hotel in Benahavis, where we have set up a tower of vanilla cupcakes for Richard and Nina, over from Abu Dhabi. Married yesterday, they are having a blessing and dinner at Amanhavis this evening.

These choccie cupcakes didn’t hang around long this morning as a classroom full of cheeky 6 year-olds descended on a birthday box of 24. Happy Birthday Louie, Sonny and Leo!

Large Chocolate Cupcakes (chocolate sponge with vanilla buttercream icing)
Minimum 12 – €1.75 each (including birthday star and number toppers)

This evening is the official opening of the new ‘La Traviesa’ Cafe in Benahavis (a fitting occasion for some nicely branded Red Velvet cupcakes). Chris and Pedro will be selling a selection of our cakes in what is a fusion of cafe, bar and gallery for furniture and artwork made by Pedro – well worth a visit when you are next in the village.

We at ‘Cake’ have a very stringent testing process, as you can imagine. Testing began on our new Banana & Chocolate cupcakes this afternoon, and our junior team leader, Dylan, said “They’re the best cupcakes we have ever made”. This is obviously very positive feedback, but the ‘grown-ups’ are still marvelling at his use of the ‘Royal We’!

Anyway, as you can see, they didn’t hang around long. That’s usually a good sign!

Banana & Chocolate Cupcakes (banana & cinnamon sponge with chocolate buttercream icing)
Minimum 12 – €1.75 each

I have literally just finished the second of these Lemon Cupcakes… and I may have to pace myself. If I were a gambling man, I would put 20Euros on my having a third with a cup of tea in approximately half an hour. All in the name of product testing and development, of course.

Lemon Cupcakes (lemon sponge with lemon buttercream icing)

Another box of my chocolate cupcakes go out for a birthday party – I soooooo love making these, but my absolute favourite are my carrot cake cupcakes… they rock! (even if I say so myself).
