About Us
A LOVE OF ART - A PASSION FOR BAKING!
Sweet Bea’s is owned and run by Lucia, who combines her love for art, design and baking by creating elegant and delicious custom-made cakes and cup-cakes from her fabulous kitchen in north London. Educated at Haberdashers’ Aske’s School for Girls and Nottingham University, Lucia is a fully trained architect, but she’s had a passion for baking ever since she was a little girl, when she baked with her mother and helped to make cakes for special family occasions. Lucia baked her first cake when she was just ten years old – an apple cake which is still one of her favourites for family occasions!
Sweet Bea’s started as a hobby for Lucia – and when her niece Bella Bea (after whom Sweet Bea’s is named) was born in 2010, Lucia created a special celebratory box of rose-decorated cupcakes and presented them to Bella Bea’s mother. So many people admired the cupcakes that Lucia’s hobby rapidly became a full-time business, with orders climbing to their current level of over 200 per year – and still growing!
Lucia now provides custom cakes for individual customers, as well as supplying cakes for upmarket business clients such As Jo Malone (at Chelsea Flower Show), Christian Dior and Tatler magazine, as well as for celebrities such as Kate Moss and Tamara Ecclestone.
