Wedding Cakes
Every cake starts with a conversation. It might begin with a place, a colour palette, a piece of fabric, a flower from the garden, or even a pet neither of you would dream of leaving out.
From there, the idea becomes a design, with size, tiers and finish refined together until it feels completely right for the day.
Wedding cakes have a minimum spend of £500.
Every design is built from a handful of individual elements. Choose one style, or mix several together to create something entirely your own.
Lambeth Piping
Scrollwork, swags and ruffles, piped entirely by hand, drawn from traditional decorating styles
Edible Pearls
Strands of sugar pearls, layered to catch the light
Hand-painted
A view, a memory, the family dog, painted freehand in edible colour
Sculpted Drapery
Fondant rolled paper-thin, shaped until it pools and falls like real fabric
Edible Lace
Fine edible lace, moulded and shaped by hand
Sugar, Wafer Paper and Buttercream Flowers
Blooms built petal by petal
Embossed Details
A raised pattern pressed by hand into the cake
Fresh Flowers and Fruit
Used exactly as they are
Sculpted Sugar Details
Hand-modelled figures in sugar paste
Long Table Format
Decorative cakes finished with fruit, flowers, piping or hand-painting, built low and
wide to run along the table or hold their own at the centre of the room.
From enquiry to wedding day
Enquiry
Fill out the enquiry form with your date, venue, guest numbers and any ideas already forming, so availability can be checked straight away.
Conversation
Once availability is confirmed, a short call to work through your day and what you have in mind. A £100 deposit secures your date if you'd like to go ahead.
Tasting
From there, an optional tasting box, so you can try different flavours before deciding.
Design
Closer to the day, a full consultation to work out size, style, tiers and finish, usually held in the January or February before the wedding.
Delivery
Finally, the finished cake is delivered and set up at the venue on the day.
