What We Do
Making sure every child is celebrated
We work with agencies and charities to find children in the Waikato who may be experiencing hardship, neglect, abuse, serious illness or family violence.
The Cake Detective then produces professional quality birthday cakes tailored just for them, so they still feel special and loved on their birthday.
