Wedding Cake 'Abigail'



My very warmest congratulations to Abigail & Sahil. Abi chose this beautiful gold sequin cake. The original design by Zoe Clark uses gelatine sequins, but she Zoe told me that they aren't particularly palatable... so I decided to put my thinking cap on and came up with an alternative edible medium.  Abi also asked me to incorporate the Superman logo, as her fiancĂ© (now husband!!) has a Superman tattoo, and I think it's kind of their 'thing', so there's a little surprise at the back of the cake.

Wedding Cake 'Esha'



 My warmest congratulations to Esha & Matesh who celebrated their wedding this weekend. This is my largest wedding cake. 7 tiers - a mix of real cake and dummy tiers. The colour scheme for the reception was metalics - rose gold, gold, silver... and so Esha's cake reflected.  The huge bottom tier was covered in ruffles - and then each one had its edge painstakingl hand-painted painted in gold and rose gold! The rest of the cake was decorated using a mix of edible cake lace and hand-piped royal icing. The top two tiers were covered in edible rose-gold sequins.  I don't really like having my photo taken, but my husband wanted me in a shot to give an idea of the size... I'm 5'4" tall, so not exactly small!
