New Patisserie Invests £400K in Liverpool Launch

Liverpool city centre welcomes a new concept in patisserie-style indulgence with the opening of European pastry shop, Wake & Cate, in the heart of Liverpool.

The café and cake house occupies smart premises spanning 400 square metres on Tarleton Street, off Williamson Square and is modelled on the elegant sweet delicatessens typically found in upmarket European city districts.

The venue offers a portfolio of ‘bonne bouches’ including more than 25 varieties of rich French and Italian inspired gateaux; syrupy Anatolian tray bakes: nearly 20 types of homemade biscuits; plus a menu of melt-in-your-mouth macaroons. Alongside this there will be gourmet ice-cream, artisan bread and luxury chocolates.

Also on offer is a range of traditional hot savoury filo pastries, deli sandwiches and panini, speciality teas and coffees, juices, smoothies and more.

The friendly professional team behind Wake & Cate chose Liverpool as an ideal location for this UK project, which will provide 12 jobs on opening. A spokesperson says:

“We spent a couple of years researching different locations including London, Birmingham and Manchester. However, Liverpool really struck us. We were very impressed with its favourable commercial conditions, friendly people and its track record in welcoming new food concepts. So much so that we have invested over £400K in this venture.”

With its breath-taking range of gastronomic cakes and confectionery, Wake & Cate is set to become the definitive haven for the North West’s sweet of tooth.

Wake & Cate is open every day from 8am to 9pm, and will also offer corporate catering, a celebration cake service and home delivery in the near future.
