About Liz
"I got married back in 2007. It was the happiest day of my life - I certainly remember the jaw-ache from all the smiling. I was a bridesmaid aged 10 and a chorister at lots of church weddings throughout childhood. After planning my own big day with military precision and attending friends’ beautiful ceremonies, there’s not a lot I don’t love about weddings. I lived in London when I was married, with an early career in live TV production and then Account Management. Being on top of things was a total must and I am still super organised in every area of my life - especially with two sons! Combine this with an absolute, greedy passion for cake, and I’m hoping I can really help and support all the lovely Brides and Grooms who choose Kelly’s Kitchen as their wedding cake maker"

What I do
From Wedding Cakes and Celebration Cakes, to a regular pitch on Royston Market, children's baking parties and bakelongs, I offer lots of different services at Kelly's Kitchen.
During the March 2020 lockdown I ran free bakealongs with my two children on my Facebook page. These increased in popularity with lots of families joining in weekly. There was always a prize for the star baker and I absolutely loved seeing all the photos come in of proud children with their bakes.
I also regularly run a Macmillian Coffee morning with my Mum at Banyers House in Royston. We are always delighted with the response and have been featured in The Royston Crow.
I also supply local coffee shop Kooky Nohmad with their weekend cupcakes for trading.
You can often find me collaborating with local businesses on styled shoots, events and experiences for local families. I am from Royston and even after leaving for a few years for university and work, I returned to raise my family and I love our local town.
I converted my garage into my Cake Studio in March 2021 and I adore having a dedicated space to design, bake and create.
