YOUR WEDDING CAKE QUESTIONS ANSWERED

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

Are they experienced in wedding cakes – not all cake makers are experienced at producing tiered cake

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

If you are looking to book a design led wedding cake, as opposed a generic semi naked or white cake, you should consider budgeting at least £700 for your cake and all that comes with it. My average wedding cake costs around £980 inclusive of everything

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.

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?

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.

No… I only make ganache finish or fondant finish cakes

Yes I offer baked goods as favours and dessert tables, please get in touch to discuss your idea.

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.
