At Crumbdidilyumptious, I create bold, contemporary wedding cakes for couples who want something that feels unmistakably theirs. Colour, sculpture, unusual structure, hand-crafted details and sugar flowers all have a place here. What I don’t do is start with somebody else’s cake and simply change the colours.
Based in my Fife studio and working with couples across Scotland, every wedding cake begins with the people I’m designing it for. Your style, venue, atmosphere and the things you love become the starting point for a completely bespoke design.
My work ranges from sculptural statement cakes and intricate sugar-flower designs to immersive dessert installations and guest experiences. The common thread is individuality. I want your cake to belong in your wedding, not look as though it could have been made for anybody else’s.
If you’re looking for traditional simply because it’s traditional, I may not be the designer for you. If you want colour, creativity, unexpected ideas and a cake people remember long after the last slice has disappeared, we’ll probably get along brilliantly.
Modern, bright, floral, (ah only 3 I need to think)
How far my skills have come from when I first started not knowing anything.
Book early, leaving things to last minute often means little availability.
I’m loving all the personalised neon signs just now, but I also love hiding little bits in cakes for couples.
I would work out an estimated price if couple had an idea of what style cake they are after, or given a budget and few ideas we would chat about estimated costs. Then we would arrange a consultation and tasting session. At this session we give tasters away of your chosen flavours to eat at home and chat about designs.
After the consultation I would do some sketches of cakes within budget including elements discussed to get the final cake design.
Leading up to the wedding we would then do a quick zoom call just to go over all the details make sure there’s no changes to flavours, timings etc.
Bright and bold colours, Sugar flowers
There’s been a few, a cake with a birdcage between tiers probably the one that stands out the most.
I used to bake with my nana, always loved it. My mum asked me to make a cake for my dads birthday so I took on the challenge and never looked back. The first wedding cake I done was actually for a friend and neighbour, seem like a lifetime ago.
I’ve never watched bake off!
