Lucy Polling, Corporate Partnerships Manager, Battersea.
It was a pleasure working with Dave Friday from start to finish! From our first phone call it was clear that Dave was incredibly organised and detail-oriented, chatting through quantities, icing colours and design options and ensuring every aspect had been thought of. He joined Battersea at a large, very busy event and had done a huge amount of preparation in advance; baking paw and bone shaped biscuits, pre-filling the icing bags and creating simple instruction sheets which meant everything ran smoothly. During the workshops he was calm, positive and approachable, helping any children who needed support and making sure everyone taking part had a great time. Due to the nature of the event, we had to make some last-minute changes, such as making the sessions ‘drop in’ rather than structured but Dave was flexible and took it all in his stride! I would highly recommend working with Dave – his organisation skills are impeccable, he was patient and generous with his time and he helped raise over £600 for Battersea!

We booked Dave Friday to run a cupcake decorating activity at the Big Eat Festival with Snows Toyota, and he was fantastic throughout. Dave thought of every detail, ensuring all ingredients and equipment were provided, so visitors had everything they needed. His workshop-style sessions were engaging and interactive, and he took the time to support participants throughout. We would highly recommend Dave for both private and corporate events.

Varsha Amin
"We had an excellent baking party experience with Friday Bakes! My 10-year-old absolutely loved spending the day baking with her friends. Dave provided all the equipment and even helped with the clear-up, which made everything completely stress-free for us.
My daughter said it was the best birthday ever — a massive testament to Friday Bakes. I would highly recommend Dave if you’re looking for someone to take the hassle out of organising a party while still making it fun, memorable, and special for the kids."

A Little About Me
Hi, I’m Dave Friday – Dad, baker, Great British Bake Off 2020 finalist and the founder of Friday Bakes.
Baking has always been a huge part of my life. From creating treats with my own family to reaching the final of The Great British Bake Off in 2020, I’ve seen first-hand how baking brings people together, builds confidence and creates moments of pure joy.
I started Friday Bakes to share that joy with kids and families through fun, interactive kids birthday parties and mobile baking experiences. I bring everything needed directly to your home, transforming your kitchen into a lively baking playground filled with creativity, laughter and plenty of delicious treats.
But a Friday Bakes party isn't just about the finished bake. It's about:
-
Building confidence as kids try something new.
-
Encouraging creativity as they bake, decorate and make their creations their own.
-
Giving parents a stress-free way to celebrate with everything provided.
-
Creating unforgettable memories that last long after the last crumb has disappeared.
When you book a Friday Bakes party, you're not just hiring a baker. You're giving your child the chance to learn, laugh, get creative and enjoy a hands-on kids baking party hosted by a Great British Bake Off finalist.
