Portrait of Abi, the baker behind Taupō Cake Co

The baker

Hi, I'm Abi

I bake every cake myself from my home kitchen in Taupō, fitting it in around two busy kids. That means I take a small number of orders each week, and every one gets my full attention.

If you've got an idea, even a rough one, I'd love to hear it. We'll work out the rest together.

"Thank you so very much for producing such a work of art for my mum's 80th birthday! Everyone was overwhelmed with its beauty and flavour. If I am in need of another cake in Taupō you'll be my go to."

Jennifer, 80th birthday cake
