    The first thing that strikes you is the WOW factor. The cakes are true works of art — so beautifully designed, incredibly detailed and almost too beautiful to cut into! Every time i bring one home the kids are always blown away and there is always that WOW moment. But what makes Bear’s Bakery really special is that the cakes don’t just look incredible — they taste every bit as amazing as they look. The flavours are absolutely delicious, the textures are perfect and there is clearly so much care and attention put into every detail. We have tried different flavours over the years and have never been disappointed. They are always fresh, beautifully made and such a highlight of our celebrations. Our guests always want to know where the cake came from. For us, Bear’s Bakery has become our go-to for those really special occasions. When you want a cake that is going to impress everyone when it arrives AND have everyone going back for another piece, this is the place. Thank you, Victoria, for creating such beautiful and delicious cakes and for making our family celebrations even more special. We absolutely love Bear’s Bakery and wouldn’t go anywhere else! ❤️🎂✨

    Was lucky to try Vika's cake at the wedding function just recently, and it was delicious! Very balanced flavours and a perfect texture. Everyone loved it! And the look of the cake deserves a separate review as it was just such a piece of art! It was beautiful and you could tell that every detail was made with much love and care. Strongly recommend Vika as a cake maker for your next event - you will never regret!

    We ordered the 18cm White Roses cake (red velvet flavour). The cake was beautifully crafted and so delicious. I would highly recommend Victoria's cakes if you are looking for something that has both great presentation and taste.

    Over the years, I have had the joy of tasting many cakes made by Vika, and each one has been nothing short of extraordinary. Every cake she creates is a masterpiece — not just in appearance, but in flavor and texture as well. You can see and taste the love, passion, and attention to detail she puts into her work. Vika has an incredible ability to turn any idea into a stunning cake that feels like it was made especially for you. The flavors are rich yet balanced, the textures are heavenly, and each bite feels like a little moment of celebration. Highly, highly recommended to anyone who wants their celebration to feel magical!

    Wow - absolutely stunning cakes! I've just tried the lemon&raspberry, and the mixed chocolate ones. A-Maze-ing! They look great - both in the packaging and on a place, and they taste incredible. Such a perfect gift!

    I ordered the Halloween iced biscuits and delivery to Auckland was quick. My kids loved them. They were perfectly made. So neat and just like the pictures. But what surprised me when we ate one today for the first time was that they were ABSOLUTELY delicious. So often you get a baked treat that looks amazing but the taste let's you down. This was the opposite. They looked amazing and tasted amazing! I hope you do Christmas biscuits because I will be ordering again!

Made to impress. Built around flavour.

At Bear’s Bakery, flavour is the starting point—not an afterthought. Our multilayered cakes are made with fresh, quality ingredients, without commercial cake mixes or artificial flavour enhancers, to create balanced flavours and textures that taste every bit as memorable as they look.

Fully bespoke cakes receive individual attention and often many hours of design, baking and hand-finishing. Every edible decoration we create is shaped by hand; for intricate figurines and precision details, we use specialist modelling paste imported from Italy. With more than 10 years of experience, Victoria combines cake artistry with exceptional taste for celebrations that call for something genuinely special.
