wedding cakes

Wedding cakes can be made in a chocolate or vanilla genoese as described in 1, 2, 3 or even 4 tiers.

Due to the use of fresh cream and berries these cakes do not travel well, like to be refrigerated when not on display and are best consumed within 3/5 days.

Wedding cakes are beautifully decorated with jewel-like berries, handmade chocolate curls and fresh or crystallised flowers.

The alternative option for a wedding cake is the madeira or rich fruit cake covered in traditional marzipan and fondant icing.

These cakes make stunning display pieces, they look beautiful decorated in assorted sugar flowers and leaves in simple white and pale pastels or more quirky and bold colours.
