Wedding Cake 'Gurpreet'

Stunning (if I say so myself!) and somewhat unusual 6 tier cake.

All 6 tiers were cut in half, vertically, and the 'cut' edges were bedecked with fresh roses and hydrangeas (130 roses and 3 large heads of hydrangea!!)

I received the lovliest email from Gurpreet after her wedding, which always touches my heart that a customer loved their cake so much, they've taken time out after such a huge event in their life to say 'thank you'.

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.

I know there are a lot of photos, but how could I choose between them?  I love them all!  So, before I tell you about the cake, let me thank Apresh Chavda of www.apreshchavda.com for kindly sending me the photos and allowing me to use them.

My very warmest congratulations to Avni & Rishi who were married this weekend at The Grosvenor House Hotel in London.  They chose a 4 tier cake topped with a hand-made sugar peacock, and the talented Becki from Floco dressed the cake with flowers to form the peacock's tail.

Pink Marble Ombré Wedding Cake

 

Warmest congratulations to Sharmini & Gajan who celebrated their wedding at the InterContinental London Park Lane.  Taking inspiration of design features from lots of different cakes that Sharmini liked, we designed this 4 tier cake with ombré pink marble effect (ie starts off light at the top and gradually gets darker on each tier). It was finished with a feature fantasy peony with gold leaves.

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 'Sima'

At the beinning of December, it started like this:

Customer: Hi.  I know it's a bit short notice, but I need a wedding cake.

Me: OK...  how short? When's your wedding?
Customer: Sunday next week [that was 8 days away...!]

Me: gulp!

So Sima sent me through some cake photos that she wanted to use as inspiration and we created her own bespoke cake design.  If I say so myself, I think her cake was gorgeous and even if we'd had 8 months, this couldn't have looked any better!  It fitted the venue - The Great Room at The Grosvenor House on London's Park Lane - and the room decoration perfectly.  

As you can see from the first photo, I didn't get a great photo, but I had the photo edited to enhance the colour and lighting and the second photo is much better.  But the last picture is a close-up I took at home which shows the true colour and closer detail.  

My warmest congratulations to Sima and Rajan

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.

Wedding Cake 'Matlida'

So many different elements on this cake, but they work so well together... ruffles; gold lustre; hand-piped royal icing; cake lace; pearl lustre. This has to be one of my favourites!

Stack of Books Wedding Cake

Liz & Jess made history by having the first same-sex wedding at their synagogue and I was thrilled to be asked to make their wedding cake.  Liz is an English teacher (I know Jess is a teacher, too, but I'm not sure in which subject) and they had a beautifully romantic literary themed wedding in a stunning octaganol former library.

The cake flavours they chose were red velvet; lemon; and coffee.
