Gwen Laugharne is a Filipino-British cake artist and mixed media artist based in Penarth. She was awarded Cake Designer of the Year at the Welsh Wedding Awards and received high commendation at the National Wedding Awards in 2024.
Gwen’s journey began when she moved to the UK in 2017, where she started creating delicious cakes and artwork. She works in her home studio, transforming her passion for cake-making and architectural landscape paintings into a fulfilling career. Over the years, she has developed a signature cake menu, featuring original recipes. She now operates an online cake shop and offers wedding services by appointment only, taking a limited number of bookings to ensure she dedicates ample time to each creation.
Gwen shares, “Each day, I am inspired by the joy of combining my creative passions with my professional life, allowing me to pursue my dreams and share my art. Sharing my passion for artistry and cuisine brings me immense joy. I love everything I do and being part of beautiful celebrations. No matter what the occasion, I always strive to deliver my best and go above and beyond to exceed my customers’ expectations, creating something unique and personal to them!”
Since then, she has continued to expand her extensive cake portfolio and art collections.
