Welcome To The Cake Mistress
Glad you found this cosy little corner. Make yourself comfy. Come chat over chocolate cake and a good cup of tea. The Cake Mistress is from Melbourne, Australia, and is focused on the sweeter things in life: baking and dessert! Sharing home-style recipes, pretty things and fun, served with vintage style and sass.
RECIPES
Down-to-earth, home-style, reliable recipes that are super-delicious and comforting like a hug from Mum.
Fancy-pants desserts like those seen in bazillion Michelin Star restaurants are all well and good. But sometimes you just need a darn good piece of chocolate cake, like Mum used to make. Within lies a collection of home-style goodies: cakes, cookies, cupcakes, biscuits, slices and more! No style over substance allowed (i’m looking at you, dessert foam)
Simple recipes you can make today: Australian produce, no fandangled gadgets required
Nan didn’t need fandangled gadgets to create amazing food: great things can be accomplished with a good recipe, good technique, patience and love. The tech-bits are secondary.
It makes me happy to learn that you’ve tried a recipe here and you’re delighted with the results. I love seeing your comments, so thank you for taking the time to give feedback. Of course, let me know if something didn’t go according to plan too, and we can problem-solve together.
PRETTY THINGS
The Cake Mistress loves to showcase the best of Australian homemade goods. Featuring a sugar-sweet theme perfect for the Domestic Goddess, the items range from handmade clothing, jewellery, art and homewares. Are you a crafy-person and would like your wares to be featured? Drop us an email at info@thecakemistress.com

Food is synonymous with love, life and community. So here’s to future meet-ups over many high teas, bake-days, dessert parties and other shenanigans. Be sure to visit the Australian Baker’s Blogroll section to find people near you, and let me know if you’d like your site added.

Beautiful and lovely. I look forward to seeing your business grow. There is a magic talent here.
Awesome website! Makes me so jealous! Will pass address onto a friend in New York I am visiting now, who is a baker too! She just got an internship at the Plaza Hotel New York (apparently its very fancy). I would love to see a bake off between you, her and Connor, and Josie!!!!
Cheers and good luck with the study.
Thank you so much! That means a lot
Hey globetrotter! You’re in NY? Amazing. Thanks for visiting, I glad you like it. A bake-off day sounds like a lot of fun
This is an amazing website CakeMistress! So impressed! It must have taken a lot of work. Much love, Jess
Hi Jess! Thank you
Been squirrelling away trying to get the bones of it up before uni starts and sucks away my time. xx
Great to see a home grown Aussie baking website! Looks fantastic, will be following closely
I can’t believe you have only been blogging a few months, excellent job, I love all your old baking photos!
glad to see you used my suggestion of cake-hole as a name. I’m trademarking it. Kthanxbye.
I absolutely agree with the fact that great desserts can come from simplicity.
Heck…we can get REALLY simple…a spoon of Crema de Leche…I’m satisfied;o)
Alright…I’m fooling…I am much more dedicated to our craft than most…however…I am not anywhere near being a pro chef ;0)…way too fussy!
Thanks for this very well maintained blog you started.
All the very best…I’ll be following.
Flavourful wishes, Claudia
What a great site! I can’t believe I haven’t seen it before now. Thanks for adding me to the blog roll!
Beautiful collection and presentation of recipes. Came through Twitter following. Nice to be here.
Came here looking for a recipe – #1 result on Google for Red Velvet Cupcakes – can’t wait to bake them for my American themed Red, White & Blue party. Don’t suppose you are in Adelaide? If so, I’d be honoured if you attended! Wonderful website, I can’t wait to get stuck into it. xo
