Here at Sugarfayre, we manufacture a wide range of edible cake decorations...

Sugarfayre is a leading UK manufacturer of bespoke edible decorations for celebration cakes, cupcakes, doughnuts, home baking kits and other sweet treats. Our expertise ranges from printed sugar and wafer to rotary moulding and Sweetmelts™ as well as blank sugar sheets for print-on-demand systems, including PhotoCake®.

Based in Northumberland, Sugarfayre was incorporated in 1991 and acquired by Culpitt Ltd in 2009. Collectively, Sugarfayre and Culpitt are owned by DecoPac Inc – the world's largest supplier of cake decorations, based in Minnesota, USA.

We aim to work collaboratively with customers to realise vision according to budget. Using printed or moulded decorations is a cost effective and efficient way to add value to products without the need for any highly skilled resource in a high-speed factory environment. From delivering simple pick and place solutions to leading development of natural colours and clean-label decorations, we ultimately strive to achieve consistently outstanding cakes and sweet treats every time.

Our decorations dominate the supermarket cake aisle on private label and leading licensed character celebration cakes, in home baking kits and can also be seen on products such as doughnuts and cupcakes in high street outlets, cafes and coffee shops.

If you are looking for edible decorations to transform and elevate your product, we’d love to hear from you.
