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.

I created this one to try out the @squireskitchen Edible Wafer Papers from @neviepie when they launched back in 2018.

Fancy trying them out for yourself? They’re available over in the Squire’s Kitchen Shop... 😉

2021 was the year that I finally managed to import 2021 was the year that I finally managed to import an Easy Bake Oven (or three) to the UK - but my Easy-Bake journey was actually anything but easy...

As a bit of background, the Easy-Bake Oven is a working toy oven, first introduced in 1963, which used ordinary incandescent light bulbs as a heat source. More recent versions made use of a true heating element, but oddly enough, safety standards in Europe meant that the toy has NEVER been available here in the UK. We’ve heard talk of them in various TV shows and movies over the years (including Monica’s Easy-Bake Oven restaurant in Friends) and this had left me with a lifelong desire to actually have a play with one!

Finally, in the third instalment of my ‘British Pro-Baker tries to bake in an Easy-Bake Oven’ series, I managed to bake an Easter cake in the iconic toy, but this endeavour has definitely taken us on a journey over the last few months! 

Head to the link in my bio to watch the final video in this tumultuous trilogy!
