Welcome To Cheryl Bottomley Cake Academy
Helping cake makers build profitable cake businesses with confidence and proper systems.
Cake business strategy, pricing clarity and professional standards for cake makers ready to move beyond inconsistent bookings.
You’re not just baking cakes. You’re building a business.
And talent alone doesn’t create consistent bookings, strong pricing or sustainable income.
Many cake makers feel stuck between:
• Being busy but not truly profitable
• Posting regularly but not attracting the right enquiries
• Delivering beautiful cakes but undercharging
• Feeling overwhelmed behind the scenes
It is rarely a skill problem.
It is usually a structure problem
Testimonials
Tier & Co Cake Management Software
"I know it's only been a few days but you will not believe how this has turned around my organisation.
By working through it, it has not just uncluttered my diary but also my mind and mindset towards the business going forward. After doing my tax return for what was a pretty rubbish year for everyone, I was in a complete funk and really uninspired. But now everything is clear,
I've dated tasks to do certain things and have purpose again. Rather than look at my diary and think 'I'll get round to making this or that', it's there in black and white and that task is booked to do that day. I really wish you all the best with this, I'm certain other bakers are going to love it.

I have been fortunate enough to be part of Cheryl’s Tier & Co software for cake designers ‘trial team’.
I didn’t realise just how invaluable this software would be in terms of keeping me organised with enquiries and orders. Having everything in one place to refer to is really helping in streamlining my process!!
I’ve found the software easy to navigate, especially with the tutorials and the regular live FB updates provided by Cheryl.
I’m loving the cake target and conversion rate calculators – it’s great for focusing on goals and watching the enquiries convert to orders.
I almost can’t pick out one part to speak about, as the whole software flows well, very user friendly and is my new invaluable piece of business ‘kit’.
Thank you Cheryl, it’s all amazing
Sharon - The Luxury Cake Studio
"Any questions I had, as I worked through the videos and then actioned each guide by putting my own customer details in, have been answered.
I'm excited to get in all my materials & recipes so I can see my pricing more clearly — this has been on my to do list for this year anyway so this will be invaluable. In summary, all I can say is...
The programme is amazing! Thank you so much, I am thoroughly enjoying it!"
