Handmade Cupcakes & Cookies in Devon
Established as a passion project, Big Bakes Bakery has grown into a beloved local institution renowned for its handcrafted sweet treats. Our journey began with a simple experiment in baking perfection, which quickly gained popularity, prompting us to open two physical locations in Devon while expanding our reach across the UK through postal deliveries. With over a decade dedicated to refining recipes, we specialise in creating cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and party bakes that combine traditional techniques with innovative flavour combinations. Our Exeter and Torquay stores produce fresh batches daily, ensuring customers experience both visual artistry and exceptional taste in every bite.We maintain strict quality control across our operations, from small retail orders to large custom traybakes for special events. Our commitment to customer satisfaction is reflected in our flexible ordering options, including pre-orders for corporate events and weddings, while our gift voucher system allows patrons to share our signature desserts with loved ones. The business continues to evolve while staying true to its founding principle: making high-quality baking accessible to all.
