YOUR WEDDING CAKE QUESTIONS ANSWERED
GENERAL
How far in advance should I book my wedding cake
Contrary to advise in most wedding magazines and blogs, you should consider booking your wedding cake 12 to 18 months before your wedding date. If you have a particular cake designer in mind for your cake, contact them as soon as you know your wedding date and venue to discuss securing your date.
How should I choose who I want to make my wedding cake?
You should consider a few things when choosing your cake designer, what is your budget? – ask for a quote or check guide prices on their website
What visually appeals to you? – if you like a modern style then pick a designer that has a portfolio of these style cakes, if you like a more traditional style, pick a designed who has a strong portfolio of these
What style or vibe is your wedding? Most cake makers have a style and it should match your own
How are their reviews? Have they got positive reviews to reassure you of their credibility
(Is this too long?)
How many should my wedding cake serve?
If you are not intending on your cake being served as a dessert, I recommend that you dont need to serve all of your guests a portion of cake, just the majority. As some won’t like cake, some will be too drunk and I have never had anyone day they didn’t have enough cake
How much should I budget for my wedding cake?
If you are looking to book a design led wedding cake, as opposed a generic semi naked or white cake, you should consider budgeting £550 + for your cake. My average wedding cakes cost around £750
Do I have to have fondant on my cake? I don't like fondant...
No, you can have a ganache finish to your cake instead if you would prefer, however the way you cut up a wedding cake (like a grid) there will be inner slices that have little or no icing and outer slices that have lots of icing, so don’t let your dislike of fondant put you off having this covering on your cake as it is easy to avoid when eating.
Do I have to have fruit cake for my wedding?
Most definitely not… it is rare now that couples opt for a fruit cake option within their wedding cake. Most go for sponge flavours and I encourage different flavours per tier as who doesn’t love cake?
DO YOU?
Do you offer cake tasters?
Yes, all booked couples will receive a luxury tasting box to have an opportunity to choose their cake flavours.
Do you offer dietary requirement cakes
I offer reduced gluten and reduced dairy cakes for some of my flavour menu. This means that the cake is made without the ingredients (dairy or gluten) but as all of my cakes are baked in a kitchen that regularly deals with these allergens, I can not guarantee no traces.
I do not supply vegan or eggless cakes.
Do you make buttercream finish cakes?
No… I only make ganache finish or fondant finish cakes
Do you make favours and dessert tables?
Yes I offer baked goods as favours and dessert tables, please get in touch to discuss your idea.
Do you offer cake stand hire?
Yes I offer (and strongly advise) that my couples hire a cake stand for their wedding cake. I have a wide range of styles and sizes to suit all designs of cake.
The hire fee is £15 and you are required to pay a refundable deposit of the value of the stand which is refunded upon safe return.
PRACTICAL
What geographical areas do you cover?
I am based on the Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire border and regularly deliver to the South West, Cotswolds and Wales.
I do deliver nationwide, this is just reflected in the delivery costs
Do you offer consultations?
Yes, all wedding couples are offered a wedding cake consultation, this can be in person at the Perfect Cakes Studio in Tenbury Wells or online.
How do I check my wedding date is available?
Send an enquiry via the wedding cakes page and I will be able to advise if tour wedding date is available
Do you have a minimum spend for cake?
Yes, I have a minimum spend of £550 + delivery for wedding cakes in peak season (March-October).
For occasion cakes I have a minimum spend of £150
HOW DO I SECURE MY WEDDING DATE?
To secure your wedding date we require a £100 security deposit, until this is received your date is not secure in the diary
Can I collect my wedding cake?
I allow collection of 1 or 2 teir wedding cakes, but any bigger requires delivery as the cake is assembled at the venue.
I advise against collection as who needs that stress on their wedding day, but if a 1 or 2 tier is collected, Perfect Cakes holds no responsibility for the cake once it has left the premises.
How does delivery and set up work?
BOOKING
ENQUIRE
It all starts with your initial enquiry where we will discuss your date, venue, budget and ideal style. At this stage, I will give you an estimated quote.
And if our cake dreams align you can pay a £100 security deposit to secure your wedding date in the diary.

Next we will have a consultation to fully discuss your cake and wedding and give you an opportunity to try some delicious tasters and select your flavours.
With such a delicious range to choose from you’ll be spoilt for choice.

Following your consultation, you will get an accurate quote and a bespoke sketch.
Now the fun starts, this is when you see your wedding cake, as you see yours and my ideas come to life.

Final balance payment is due in full 4 weeks prior to your wedding date.

PORTIONS
A standard 2 tiered cake would serve 45 portions
A standard 3 tiered cake would serve 80 portions
A standard 4 tiered cake would serve 160 portions
When designing your dream wedding cake, I am more concerned about the design and visual asthetics of the cake, rather than how many tiers it has. Some designs look the most striking as smaller cakes, and in this case, portions can be made up with a kitchen cake to ensure all your guests get to try delicious cake.
PRICING
As all my cakes are bespoke they are individually quoted. But as a guide
2024
A 2 tiered iced cake to serve 45 portions starts from £410 + delivery
A 3 tiered, iced cake to serve 80 portions start from £590 + delivery
A 4 tiered iced cake to serve 160 portions starts from £790 + delivery
2025
A 2 tiered iced cake to serve 45 portions starts from £440 + delivery
A 3 tiered, iced cake to serve 80 portions start from £620 + delivery
A 4 tiered iced cake to serve 160 portions starts from £850 + delivery
I have a minimum cake spend of £550 + delivery for 2024 wedding cakes and £600 + delivery for 2025 wedding cakes
CAKE STAND HIRE
You wouldn’t choose the perfect outfit and forget about the shoes, so why book the perfect cake and forget about the stand.
I highly recommend that all wedding cakes are displayed on some form of cake stand to add that extra wow factor.
I have a wide range of cake stands available to hire for booked wedding couples. During your consultation we will discuss the style and type of stand that beautifully compliment your cake
Hire details
Cake stand hire is £15 plus a refundable deposit which is the equivalent of the cake stand value (varies depending on stand)
The stand will be delivered and set up with the wedding cake and an addressed box will be left with the venue for its return
Following the wedding day the cake stand must be returned in person or via post within 5 days, when the refundable deposit will then be refunded.
