Absolute rubbish I'm afraid. I am a cake decorator and could have done better with my eyes closed. The staff were horrific too. No wonder it closed early, the 2 men there were moaning to each other, in my ears reach, how hungover they were and couldn't wait to get out of there. This was scattered with a few f words in between. The whole thing was crap and I am now in the mindset of doing my own next year!!!!!!!

Great exhibition idea - something a bit different and wacky. Loved the Alice in Wonderland cake and the reindeer head. The sugar burgers and chips were fun too. Went twice on Friday afternoon, not as busy as expected and got to eat one of the letters from the wall 'cake'.

Awful!Simply awful! I was so looking forward to this so on Sunday afternoon around 3pm, my boyfriend and I joined a queue to get into the exhibition. We were told it was packed so we had to wait...once in, the room was a tiny room, we could only see crumbs on a couple of plates and they were performing a cupcake catapult. There was a projection on the wall and people were allowed to catapult cupcakes onto that projection. Still dont understand the fun, I could just see a lot of food being wasted when there are so many people who are homeless and without food! and by the way....there was no cake art...

The exhibition closed early without notice. I went all the way there, and was told they decided to let people eat the exhibition early. That means at 16:00 myself and hoards of other disappointed visitors were turned away. Very unprofessional.

Great idea, rubbish execution. Like a flower show at a village fete ... but less charming.

For example: porcelain ornaments ... sprayed with sugar. THAT IS NOT A CAKE!

Took my kids this morning - v disappointing. No sign of stunts, workshops, or eating the artwork - they hadn't even finished putting the exhibition together.
