Wedding Cake Rashida

A slightly belated post, as Rashida's wedding was on the 30th June...  
Rashida wanted to use some of her cake stands to display her wedding cake... now, I know what you're thinking, but she actually came to see me about her wedding cake about 3 or 4 weeks BEFORE Harry & Meghan's wedding... so who's copying who, eh? Here, her three cakes (10" chocolate-orange cake; double height 7" lemon cake; 6" cherry bakewell) are set up and dressed with 'baby's breath' and fresh roses at the beautiful Eastbury Manor House - a beautiful Elizabethan house, now run by The National Trust. I don't often get to see my clients when I set up their wedding cakes, but I was lucky enough to see Rashida and she looked exquisite! I'm so delighted the sun was shining down on your special day and I wish them both every happiness.

Wedding Cake

Congratulations to Vicky & Steve who were married at Blake Hall.  Their wedding had a 'tree of life' theme and so when they saw my cake with hand-painted tree and bride & groom silhouettes, they decided it was perfect for them!  With hearts in shades of burgundy, it complemented their colour scheme.

Wedding Cake 'Lauren'



Last weekend was a beautiful bright autumnal day for Lauren & Adam's wedding at Gaynes Park in Essex.  They chose a 4 tier buttercream-finish cake, with red velvet, chocolate and lemon cakes, wich had fresh flower finishing touches.  The reception looked stunning, with an abundance of hydrangea, roses and blossoms.  I love how the cake seems to be framed by the blossoms and tree-lights in the second picture, taken from the gallery.

My very warmest congratulations to Clare and Derry who were married today at Eastbury Manor House. I have to admit that despite the venue being only 20 minutes from me, I'd never heard of it before. It's a beautiful Elizabethan house, now owned by the National Trust, hidden in plain sight amongst residential roads! I do hope I get to visit again. Clare and Derry chose my 'Maryam' design, but changed the flowers from roses to peonies to match their fresh flowers. I love the bespoke stand they had made to display the cake, which was tiers of red velvet and champagne & strawberry.

Henna Inspired Wedding Cookie Favours



Just a small selection of the henna-pattern inspired cookies for Devina & Amrit's wedding... I love the bright colours and beautiful patterns! They may have taken me longer than anticipated, but seeing how thrilled the customer was when she collected them - and the lovely 'thank you' hug she gave me was certainly worth it!!  Royal icing flooded cookies with hand-piped royal icing detailing. There were 180 cookies in total, 3 cookies per bag. The customer had 60 beautiful boxes to place the bagged cookies in at home - boxes had peacock pattern on the front, with the bride & groom's name.

Wedding Cake 'Alice'

I love my latest cake. It has enough bling and sparkle to satisfy my inner Essex Girl, but remains elegant, tasteful and classy. Perfect for a winter wedding! I can't take credit for the original design, but despite trying several times, I've been unable to find the original cake maker to credit.

3 Weddings in 6 days!!







The first of the 3 cakes was this 4 tier version of a 3 tier cake by Little Cherry Cake Co.  My thanks for her permission to allow me to reproduce her design.  My warmest congratulations to Tanveer and Sandeep.  White stripes on a white cake, with hand-made sugar roses.  Unfortunately, due to the lighting at the venue, I wasn't able to get a great photo.  





The second cake was this 5 tier wedding cake for Sana & Zahir with hand-made sugar roses and hydrangea, pretty lace and ribbon and finished with hand-piped royal icing detail.


And the final cake was this 6 tier cake that was delivered to The Waldorf Hilton in London.  It is always a pleasure to work with Becki of Floco Flower Company and I love the exquisite roses and hydrangea that we dressed the cake with.  Warmest congratulations to Esha & Matesh on their civil wedding ceremony.

White Chocolate Wedding Cake

Congratulations to Navdeep & Daryl who were married today at Langton House.
I made the wedding cake for Navdeep's sister, Anita,  5 years ago (Crikey!  That's frightening how quickly the time's gone!) and so I was honoured that they came back to me when it was Navdeep's wedding.  3 tiers of light vanilla sponge with jam & buttercream, covered with white chocolate ganache and finished with white chocolate cigarellos and fresh flowers to match the bride's bouquet.
