Having just received a disc of photos of our latest wedding cake collection from my photographer, I am so excited I have to put some on my blog until my web lady can upload them! I will keep the new wedding cakes a secret but take a look at our new miniature cakes; perfect as an alternative to a traditional wedding cake, ideal as favours and gifts and a chic addition to any modern wedding.

Lara and Jim got married in October at Syon Park in London which has the most stunning Victorian conservatory in which receptions are held. Lara had seen a number of chocolate cigarillo wedding cakes which she liked but she really wanted one where the cigarillos were unevenly shaped i.e no two exactly the same. We searched high and low for these but suppliers only sold the standard thin mass produced cigarillos so we decided to make our own! After a number of hours perfecting the tempering of the chocolate and the curling technique, we managed to produce perfect uneven cigarillos. The resulting four tier white chocolate cigarillo wedding cake was spectacular as the pictures below show. We have now added this type of cake to our range and are pretty pleased with our efforts! September 13, 2010Piped detail wedding cakeA very lovely evening spent in Herefordshire at the wedding of Fay and Mark. And what a do it was! A beautiful service in Ledbury Cathedral followed by a lovely marquee reception complete with Morrocan tents, stunning flowers and amazing food. I am still recovering from the delicious canapes, three course meal and hog roast. We were asked to do the wedding cake and even though I say so myself, I have to say that I thought it looked absolutely stunning. It was a traditional ivory wedding cake with white piped detail taken from the lace on the bride and bridesmaid’s dresses and a stunning wide aqua ribbon. We made the tiers extra deep to incorporate the beautiful satin ribbon and the piping-beautiful! Fay is an artist and you could really tell with the amazing attention to detail from the message tree, to the aqua blue colour scheme and through to all the amazing dresses made by Fay’s mum. Going to all these lovely weddings really inspires me with my designs so thank you so much Fay and Mark for a fabulous day and lots of ideas.
