Vegan Cupcake Decorating Parties in Solihull
The original cupcake decorating party — beautifully reimagined, completely vegan.
Looking for a children’s birthday party in that feels creative, exclusive, beautifully presented and genuinely different?
Welcome to Cake Decorating Parties by Emma.
For over 16 years, we’ve been creating memorable cupcake decorating experiences for children and families — combining professional cake decorating skills with creativity, confidence and plenty of fun.
Now, we’ve taken our much-loved experience one step further.
Introducing our completely vegan cupcake decorating parties.
From the freshly baked cupcakes and silky frosting to the colourful decorations and ingredients used throughout the experience, our parties are 100% vegan.
It’s a celebration of plant-based baking designed to be every bit as beautiful, exciting and indulgent as a traditional cake decorating experience.
And, of course, every party is personally hosted by our founder, Emma — a fully qualified professional cake maker with more than 25 years’ experience.
Beautiful bakes. Professional techniques. Thoughtful details. A party experience they’ll remember.
Hosted Personally by Emma
More than decorating cupcakes. Learning the art of cake decorating.
This isn’t simply a tray of cupcakes, a handful of sprinkles and a few minutes of entertainment.
Every party is personally hosted by Emma, creating a relaxed, encouraging environment where children can learn genuine cake decorating techniques while having an enormous amount of fun.
With professional equipment, carefully prepared ingredients and step-by-step guidance, children are encouraged to experiment, create and discover what they can do.
There’s no pressure to make everything perfect.
Just plenty of encouragement, creativity and the satisfaction of creating something entirely their own.
Learn. Create. Decorate.
During their experience, children will learn how to:
- Colour frosting using vibrant gel colours
- Master beautiful piping swirls
- Create elegant rose swirls
- Pipe stars
- Use professional cake decorating equipment
- Work with universal piping nozzles
- Add colourful vegan sprinkles
- Create cupcakes they’re genuinely proud to take home
It’s a birthday party with a creative skill at its heart — and something new to show off at the end.

Important Dietary & Allergen Information
Please read carefully before booking
Although our cupcake parties are 100% vegan, vegan does not mean allergen-free.
We want every family to have a clear understanding of what we can and cannot safely accommodate before booking.
Our cupcakes contain gluten.
Unfortunately, we are unable to provide gluten-free cupcakes or cater for gluten-free dietary requirements.
Our parties are therefore not suitable for guests who require a gluten-free diet.
We cannot guarantee our products are free from nuts, dairy or egg.
Although the cupcakes and ingredients used for our parties are vegan, they are prepared in professional kitchen environments where nuts, dairy and egg are also used and handled.
Because of this, we cannot guarantee that our cupcakes, ingredients or decorating materials are completely free from traces of these allergens.
For guests with severe or life-threatening allergies, our cupcake parties are therefore not suitable.
This includes severe allergies to:
- Nuts
- Dairy / milk
- Egg
- Gluten
We take great care with the preparation and handling of our products, but we do not operate an allergen-free kitchen and cannot make a guarantee of zero cross-contamination.
If your child has a severe allergy or requires strict allergen avoidance, please contact us before booking so that you can make an informed decision about whether our experience is suitable.
Your child’s safety is important to us, which is why we would always rather be completely transparent about our ingredients and kitchen environment.
