Paul's Creative Cakes
Having started out over 20 years ago, Paul James spent the last five years of his 'chef life' working as a pastry chef.
From making cakes for family, friends and work colleagues, Paul's creations have grown into a thriving business and the man behind the fabulous creation at Paul's Creative Cakes, seems to have found his niche.
At 39 years old and having lived in Colchester, Essex all his life, Paul has not had any formal cake making training but is self-taught and always learning. This natural gift has meant that about 18 months ago Paul started making his cakes full-time and set up Paul's Creative Cakes.
Paul makes and creates all the cakes from his home, and personally sees to their delivery, if required, with the occasional help from his family. 
Paul decorates the cakes with butter cream and fondant icing and strives to make every cake 100% edible although some cakes do require supports.
The cakes are available in different flavoured sponges, which are carved into the shapes required before decoration.
The largest cake challenge that Paul has completed was for a Fairy Princess castle that was made on a board roughly measuring 6ft by 3ft!
Paul's personal favourite is his ice-cream sundae cake.
Some of the strangest requests for cakes have included a Dyson hoover, chicken fajitas, cleaning products and a computer game rifle.
If possible Paul will try to cater for all allergies and do his best to make everyone a cake.
