Bespoke wedding cakes

 
 

Perfect for larger gatherings or for those who want the full experience.

This is the place where your cake dreams come true, no holding back on creating an unforgettable wedding cake for your perfect day. Why choose bespoke? With this option the possibilities are endless, glorious juicy florals, hand painted water colours, gold leaf, layers of intricate details, towering tiers or perfectly proportioned single tiers, the possibilities are endless.

But of course the inside is just as important as the outside, our cakes are truly delicious and have been perfected over many years of hard work (and sampling of course). We use local eggs, butter and cream, Belgian chocolate and all our curds and compotes are made from scratch. We have 12 flavours to choose from but if you have something special in mind we can create something just for you.

The process starts with one of our taster boxes delivered to your home which you can enjoy in your own time. Meanwhile we’ll pop over to your pinterest board or you can send us photos by email then we’ll arrange a design consultation either in person at the bakery or over zoom.

We’ll consult with your florist to decide which flowers will work best and arrange any collections or meetings, some may be grown from seed especially for your wedding in our edible flower patch.

Once you are happy with the final design you’ll receive a sketch of the cake and we can discuss how you would like the cake to be presented and set up on the day.

We’ll discuss timings and will contact your venue or wedding planner to discuss delivery

How to order

We take orders up to a year in advance. During the design process we look at the flowers and colours you like and the style of your day (are you going for a boho tipi wedding, sophisticated hotel or rustic barn?)

To secure the date we take £150 deposit and the balance is due 1 month before the wedding. Before the deposit is paid we’ll send over our contract for you to read through and sign

The cake will be delivered and set up on the day at a time discussed before hand. Just like any cake, if left in the heat too long it will melt and this is especially true with buttercream cakes, if the day is very hot we very strongly advise having the cake delivered as close to the cutting of the cake as possible. We cannot be held responsible for the cake once it’s set up so this will be something we can plan in advance to cover all scenarios

Portion sizes, my goodness these vary from baker to baker. we like to keep it simple, our cakes are 3 or 4 layers of sponge so usually be 7-8 inches tall, we would recommend cutting the cake into 1 x 1 inch pieces which is a really generous portion, perfect for dessert with fruit and cream or served a little later.
