About Us
What began in a home kitchen has grown into something much bigger. Each move has taken us to a larger space, with our most recent in March 2025 being nearly three times the size of the last. Along the way, our team has evolved too — today we’re proud to have our largest (and best) group yet, whose passion and creativity have shaped the brand you see now.
What We Do Today
As we’ve expanded, so has our menu. From our first cakes to a wide range of designs, flavours, and sizes, we now create seasonal specials and custom cakes that are unmatched in creativity and detail. Brownies and cookies have joined the line-up too, earning us a Great Taste Award. Through it all, one thing hasn’t changed: every item is handmade with the finest ingredients — including organic local eggs — and delivered with the same care and service we’ve been known for since day one.
At Harry Batten, every treat is made with heart — and a love for the art of baking.
