Wedding Cake Consultations and Tastings

For all wedding cake orders I like to hold a free consultation to discuss and start designing your wedding cake. I usually hold the consultations at home but can come out to you or do them over the phone/email if necessary. Please get in touch to arrange a date to come and see me.

An exciting part of choosing your cake is deciding which flavours you’re going to have inside. If it’s a multi tiered cake it’s more than okay to have each tier a different flavour but I do insist that heavy cakes such as fruit or dense chocolate cakes go on the bottom to avoid putting too much weight on the lighter layers.

I offer tasting boxes with all Wedding Cake orders, these will be given to you at the consultation or posted out to you.

Here’s a menu of my most popular flavours;

• Vanilla Sponge with Homemade Raspberry Jam and Madagascan Vanilla Buttercream
• Rich Chocolate Mud Cake, Salted Caramel and Chocolate Buttercream
• Lemon Sponge Soaked in Lemon Syrup, Zingy Lemon Curd and Lemon Buttercream
• Chocolate Guinness Cake (Dense and Rich) with Madagascan Vanilla Buttercream
• Luxury Fruit Cake infused with Brandy
• Cookies & Cream light fluffy sponge with crushed Oreos and Vanilla Buttercream with crushed Oreos
• Vanilla Sponge Soaked in Champagne Syrup with Strawberry & Champagne Conserve
• Carrot Cake with Zesty Orange Buttercream
• Almond Sponge with Cherry Jam and Vanilla Buttercream
• Coconut Sponge with Passionfruit Curd and Vanilla Buttercream

To achieve sharp edges on cakes all have to be covered with chocolate ganache, on most sponges I use white chocolate and on chocolate cakes I use milk or dark chocolate. If they aren’t covered in ganache the edges will be softer and look rounded. For fruit cakes marzipan will be used.

I do cater for gluten free and vegan diets so please do let me know when ordering your cake if you’d like any further information regarding available flavours.
