“My first contract working with Siren Bakes was a festive booking for very demanding clients. Lesley came in and performed beyond expectations. This led to us working together on a number of occasions including large house parties, VIP guests and a Fitness Retreat. The Fitness contract was one of the most complex and challenging contracts I have worked alongside anyone with. In seeing Lesley deliver that, I am without doubt that she is one of the best in the business. I witnessed her being put into very difficult situations and working with logic, strategy and with a high level of delicious and beautiful output! She made a 5 tier wedding cake and 4 unexpected birthday cakes during a month long stint at the Lodge. Every time we have worked together, time and time again the result is the same, whatever the level and complexity she WILL ensure you and your guests expectations are exceeded.”

“Siren Bakes has cooked for several events on our boat, including an 80 person private party and a 120 person wedding anniversary. Nothing is ever too much trouble and she is always cheerful. Her Chocolate Guinness Cake is a firm favourite”

“We have a particular approach to food with our philosophy so it is extremely important to get it right. We need a menu low in grains, dairy and sugar, high in greens and select, good quality meat. The added complexity on a Wildfitness retreat is that you have an itinerary that can change based on weather and clients energy levels. So, what might have been scheduled as a picnic lunch for a day’s trek gets swapped with another day’s schedule and so the accompanying food needs to change too. Siren Bakes worked tirelessly to make sure everything ran smoothly and deliciously, even with last minute changes.
The biggest impact on the clients’ appreciation of food was the blind tasting event. Clients were blindfolded and fed various ingredients and raw foods. Siren Bakes commentated throughout, highlighting the tactile experiences and the degree to which we rely on our eyes, not our taste or smell. It was an enlightening experience for all of us."

"I had the extreme pleasure of a whole week of cuisine from Lesley on a Wildfitness retreat in Alladale. A wonderful way to enjoy Scotland and a fantastic way to enjoy the absolutely awesome creations from Siren Bakes. For me, Siren Bakes also catered for my need for a low potassium diet. I was wowed everyday with the food and the scenery."
