Floral Wedding Cakes in Somerset
Floral design sits at the heart of many wedding cakes created by Lydia Kraitman Cakes. These bespoke floral wedding cakes in Somerset are composed with the same care as a bouquet, balancing colour, form, and texture to create a natural, considered flow that reflects the setting and season of the day.
Sugar, painted, buttercream, fresh, dried, pressed, and wafer paper florals are used to complement your colour palette and venue, ensuring each cake feels harmonious, refined, and personal.
Example prices are included for guidance and reflect designs created at the time.
Sugar Flowers
Each sugar flower is sculpted, veined, and coloured by hand, inspired by your bouquet or the surrounding landscape. These botanical details can be created as individual statement blooms or arranged into full cascading compositions that move naturally across the tiers.
Every petal is shaped with care to capture softness, variation, and a sense of natural movement, creating floral wedding cakes that feel lifelike and enduring.
Example shown: Five-tier fondant wedding cake with handmade sugar florals, created in 2025, priced at £950.
Painted Florals
Hand-painted florals bring a gentle, artistic quality to a wedding cake design. Flowers are painted directly onto the surface of the cake using edible pigments, echoing the colours, shapes, and rhythm of seasonal blooms.
Painted florals can stand alone or be layered with sugar or fresh flowers to add depth, texture, and a sense of storytelling across the tiers.
Example shown: Three-tier floating fondant wedding cake with painted wisteria and trailing wafer paper leaves, created in 2025, priced at £850.
Buttercream Florals
Buttercream florals create a soft, textural finish with an organic, relaxed feel. Each bloom is piped by hand using custom-mixed tones to reflect the colour palette of your day.
These designs suit seasonal weddings particularly well and can be paired with fresh or dried flowers to add movement and variation while keeping the overall design light and natural.
Example shown: Two-tier buttercream wedding cake with piped florals and soft textural finish, created in 2025, priced at £400.
Fresh, Dried and Pressed Florals
Fresh, dried, and pressed flowers each bring a distinct character to a floral wedding cake design. Fresh blooms add softness, colour, and scent, while dried elements introduce texture and a seasonal depth.
Pressed flowers offer a delicate botanical finish that works beautifully for spring and summer celebrations.
Every stem and petal is prepared for food safety and placed by hand to ensure a balanced composition that feels light, intentional, and timeless.
