Bespoke Wedding cakes in Kent
I’m Serena, the designer and maker behind Cobi & Coco. After graduating from Central St Martins College of Art and Design, with a BA Hons in Textiles Design. I followed my dream to become a fashion designer working in Hong Kong and London before taking up a post as a senior designer for an international retail company.
Motherhood prompted me to slow down and relocate out of London to the Kent countryside with my young family. I was seeking something that allowed me to continue my passion for design as I always enjoy learning new skills and being challenged. I learned how to make sugar flowers and I fell in love with the art. I wanted to explore where I could take my new skill and in pursuit of my hobby, Cobi & Coco was set up.
I see baking as my creative outlet, an art form allowing me to work with my hands. Having grown up surrounded by chefs in my family, I frequently experimented in the kitchen and fell in love with baking.
Since setting up Cobi & Coco, I have had some fantastic opportunities including been asked to become a recommended supplier to several wedding venues in Kent, and the opportunity to supply wedding cakes to some of my dream venues including, Kew Gardens, Grosvenor House and Hedsor House. I am honoured and privileged to be the winner of the LUXlife Global Wedding Awards – Best Global Wedding Cake Service 2021, The Wedding Industry Awards – National and Regional Winner for Wedding Cake Designer Of The Year 2021 and UK Wedding Awards – Best Wedding Cake Company 2020.
I love working within the wedding industry, being part of a couple’s special day, and to be able to play a role in making a couple’s dream wedding day come true. It’s rewarding and allows me to explore my creativity with every cake I design. I do not make the same cake twice as I believe every couple is unique and their wedding cake should reflect this. This motivates me to be artistically adventurous to try new designs and techniques.
I can’t wait to be part of your next celebration – get in touch today to start your cake journey with Cobi & Coco.
