About Maryam

Maryam is an expert cake artisan based in Melbourne, with a background as a commercial head chef and a creative heart that’s always been drawn to baking. What began as a personal passion evolved into a boutique cake studio known for timeless design, exceptional flavour, and heartfelt service.

Largely self-taught and later refined through her studies at the prestigious William Angliss Institute — where she received multiple awards for confectionery design — Maryam brings both skill and soul to her work. Her style blends traditional elegance with a modern eye, resulting in cakes that feel personal, polished, and beautifully considered.

With every commission, Maryam takes pride in creating not just a centrepiece, but a lasting memory — something her clients return for, time and again.

At Cakes by Maryam, every cake is designed to honour a meaningful moment. From elegant weddings and engagement parties to anniversaries, baby showers and children’s birthdays — Maryam creates custom designs that evolve with your story.

Clients often return again and again, entrusting Maryam with the most special chapters in their lives. It's this ongoing connection — and a commitment to exceptional service — that sets her work apart.

Each design begins with your vision and is shaped with care, attention to detail, and a focus on both taste and beauty. Whether you’re dreaming of something simple and refined or intricate and romantic, your cake will be crafted to feel entirely yours.
