About PolarBakes

From the Royal Navy
to a home bakery.

I'm Erin, a custom cake and postal box maker based in Ebbw Vale. I joined the Royal Navy at 17, and quickly became known on board as “the cake maker.”

At 22, I turned my passion into PolarBakes, making bespoke birthday and wedding cakes you won't find on any shop shelf in South Wales.

How It Works

Three steps from idea to celebration.

01

Tell me the story

Birthday, wedding, anniversary — we chat through theme, flavour, dates and dietary needs.

02

Quote & Images

I send a quote and some reference images within 48 hours. We refine until it’s exactly what you imagined.

03

Bake & deliver

I bake to order and either deliver to your door, or you collect from Ebbw Vale or Hereford.
