Our story

A neighbourhood cake shop
on Cowley Road.

Millefeuille opened on Cowley Road in 2019 — a small, independent, family-run bakery and patisserie.

We make French-style cake slices, tarts and mousses on the counter, plus birthday and wedding cakes to order — from a simple chocolate sponge for a six-slice party to themed children’s cakes and full wedding tiers.

Everything is hand-finished in the shop. The menu shifts with the season, the day, and what we’ve been asked to bake that week.

“We started with one rolling pin and one oven. The rolling pin is still here.” — the team at 86 Cowley Road
Custom & wedding cakes

Themed cakes,
wedding tiers, made to order.
