Mr Baker:

Rob Baker-Gall is the face behind Mr Baker’s Cakes and Mr Baker’s Cakes: The Blog.

A long-time passionate baker (it’s in his name after all), it was only after being asked to make a birthday cake for a friend’s daughter back in 2014 that Rob caught the bug for cake decorating and it is safe to say he was hooked.

Five years on, Rob has become well-known in the cake world for his fun-packed sculpted cakes and his regular online content creation, with multiple appearances in both print media and on television, and he loves that his passion for all-things-sugar is able to bring joy to so many.

Here at Mr Baker’s Cakes: The Blog – one of the UK’s top-rated baking and cake decorating blogs and the home of the weekly online magazine, Something Sweet – his blend of topical articles and posts, recipes, tutorials and interviews with some of the most recognisable faces in cake have made Rob’s blog an essential resource for any cake artist and he is passionate about sharing and celebrating the incredible talents out there in the world of cake.

Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget to subscribe before you go…

There’s no new video this week, while I have a j There’s no new video this week, while I have a jolly good sort out in the studio - 15 weeks of baking has certainly taken its toll! 😳😂 But in the meantime, if you’re one of my newer subscribers, why not take some time to check out some of my older, non-baking videos, like my super simple ‘How to Create a Wood-Effect Cake Board’ tutorial, available over on my YouTube channel (link in bio). And be sure to let me know what other videos and tutorials you would like to see from the Mr Baker’s Cakes Kitchen in the coming weeks! #youtube #youtuber #youtubechannel #caketutorial #caketutorialvideos #howto #airbrushing #airbrushingcakes
Every Sunday, some of my friends and I get togethe Every Sunday, some of my friends and I get together and take part in a Zoom quiz (yup, those are STILL a thing for some of us), and it somehow has become a tradition that, each week, I draw a ridiculously unflattering picture of my dear friend Sharon during the evening’s festivities... Yesterday, as we celebrated Sharon’s 50 birthday during this week’s quiz, I obviously HAD to mark the occasion with something equally unflattering... 😈🙈😂 Constructed from delicious vanilla cake, my first ever piñata cake is stuffed full of a TON of M&Ms and decorated with a not-so-subtle nod to the colourful candy that lurks within - all finished off with a simple portrait of the birthday girl of course (adorned with all the hallmarks of premature aging and celebrating her particular propensity to ‘blush’ when emotions are high). I arranged for the surprise delivery to take place while the rest of us were live on Zoom and, as you might imagine, it went down a storm...! Happy Birthday, Sharon! Love you really... 😘 #piñata #pinatacake #surpriseinside #surpriseinsidecake #rainbowcake #colourfulcake #colorfulcake #howold #happybirthday #birthdaycake #cakedecorating
This is a special shout out to all of my #minichum This is a special shout out to all of my #minichums to say a massive MASSIVE thank you to everyone who has joined in with Mr Baker’s Cake School over the last fourteen weeks! I have absolutely loved seeing all of the photos of you getting stuck into some serious baking while at home during lockdown and the results of your efforts have been incredible! I have seen some seriously awesome bakes. Although it is sad to see my children’s baking series come to an end, I will be making a rather exciting announcement soon, so don’t worry... the fun isn’t over. It’ll just be... moving. #cryptic But in the meantime, I wanted to do something to celebrate the end of Mr Baker’s Cake School and celebrate all of your achievements, so I have designed two brand new T-shirt’s over at the Mr Baker’s Cakes Apparel store just for you! First up, after quite a few (ok, a lot) of requests, we have a brand new reimagining of my signature #cakechums T-shirt, just for you guys! Yes, you can now proclaim your #minichums-ness to the world! 😊 And, if you are after a bit of a souvenir of your time at the Cake School, there is also a special Mr Baker’s Cake School commemorative tee celebrating your graduation as a super-skilled home baker! 🙌🏼 If you would like to get your hands on one (or both) of these brand new and original designs, you simply need to head to the Mr Baker’s Cakes Apparel store, which you can find at the link in my bio... Don’t forget you can claim FREE SHIPPING on all orders up until midnight tonight and be sure to send me a photo of you rocking your new tee! #mrbakerscakeschool #lockdownbaking #homeschoolbaking
