Piece of Cake · Nairobi

The Heart of Our Craft

About the Shop

Discover the story behind Piece of Cake Nairobi — where careful technique meets the warmth of a home-run studio in Kenya's capital.

A home-run artisanal journey

What began in a quiet Nairobi kitchen has grown into a studio known for bespoke cakes — still guided by the same hands, the same standards, and the same belief that dessert should feel personal.

We are not a production line. We take a limited number of orders so every tier, every brush of colour, and every flavour note gets the time it deserves.

“Working from home allows me to infuse each creation with the same love I put into my own family's special moments. This isn't just business — it's my calling.”

— Nour Taib, Founder

The heart behind every creation

Meet Nour

A mother of two who turned a love for baking into a studio trusted across Nairobi. Every cake carries a piece of her story — and room for yours.

Nour Taib

“Every cake is a canvas where I paint emotions and create memories.”

— Nour Taib

From kitchen to dreams

Children's birthdays first taught me how much a cake can mean — not as decoration, but as a gathering point. That lesson never left.

Today the studio is still built around family rhythms: patience, honesty, and the kind of flavour you remember long after the plates are cleared.
