Planning your cake

If you like our style of cake's first book a consutation and tasting, tell us which cake or cake's you would like to taste, then we can discuss what style decoration and flavour you would like.

When planning your cake their are a few things worth thinking about, perhaps you would like different cakes on each tier a preferred option by most ,chocolate cake, fruit cake and coconut cake for example, fruit cake has to be the the bottom tier being the heavier unless you opt for separate cakes on a stand, having different types of cakes pleases all your guests when estimating the amount of cake you need sponge cake is usually cut in larger portions my sizes and portions are based on fruit cake, If the cake is being served as dessert more is needed, all my cakes are suitable for dessert fruit being the exception.

Fresh flowers may be suitable in a flower spill for the top of a wedding cake, however we do not recommend them to be placed directly on to cakes, they are often full of pesticides and pollen.

We always advise sugar and chocolate decoration or fruit to decorate wedding cakes.

You may only need a three tier cake but prefer the look and height of a four tier this can be achieved by having a cake dummie as the top tier decorated the same as the rest of the cake for a few pounds more and your guests will never know. happy planning.
