FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs
What is your signature cake?
As each cake is designed specifically for each individual couple my cakes can look quite different, but my signature style generally includes a sugarpaste finish with personalised elements without being novelty.
What is the most original creation you have baked for a wedding?
Certainly the most personalised cake I have made included many different personalised elements including bespoke book spines and favourite steam train in a reveal-back design, phrases from their favourite novels in love hearts on the front, balanced beautifully with sugar flowers to ensure their cake still looked classic and elegant, rather than novelty.
Flavour-wise I have created new or adapted my recipes to make cakes even more special for my couples, for example I created a banana bread inspired flavour at a couples request after the pandemic due to their love for it.
Describe how you got into making wedding cakes.
I first started making cakes simply to make my daughters' birthday cakes, but as my skills and business grew as did my love for weddings, so it was a natural progression for me.
I love everything about weddings, always have done since the age of 5 when the church bells would ring at the church opposite my grandparents house. The pride and happiness being part of someone's special day is magical.
