White Rose Bakes Full Description
Are you seeking something a little bit different to surprise and delight your guests on your special day? Fabulous! You've arrived at the perfect place. Make yourself comfortable and let's talk cake... If you really want the food at your wedding to have the wow factor, you may be interested in having a dessert table as either an addition or alternative to a traditional wedding cake. A dessert table is a wonderful way to create a beautiful food display at your reception and have all your favourite sweet treats on one table. (Great if you are struggling to decide which flavours to use!) White Rose Bakes' contemporary, elegant, natural style is visually stunning whilst still being very inviting for your guests to dive in and enjoy and explore! At White Rose Bakes we pride ourselves on using ingredients from local producers wherever possible, and never using artificial colours or flavours. We are also very pleased to be able to offer a range of products made without dairy or gluten-containing ingredients and other allergens. So you can be confident that we can bake to suit any allergies or dietary requirements you or your guests may have. Your dessert table will be as unique as you are. You will get to decide which bakes you would like, how many varieties, how many portions, which flavours are used, how your bakes are decorated, if you would like to include a larger centrepiece cake or not, and much more! In other words, your dessert table will be designed to suit you and your budget, right down to the finest detail. Contact Alice to discuss how she can design and make a stunning and exciting selection of delicious sweet bakes for your very own personal dessert table.

Our guests kept talking about the cakes for days!
We were super lucky to pick White Rose Bakes as our cake maker for our wedding day. They not only provided the most tasty cake possible but also personalised it for or Viking themed wedding. Alice also made a traditional Nowegian kransekake to compliment our main cake. Our guests kept talking about the cakes for days after the wedding.

Alice designed exactly what we envisaged
After trying a White Rose Bakes cake and dessert table previously at a family wedding it was by far the best cake we had ever eaten and we have been to a few weddings! We couldn’t wait to book with White Rose Bakes for our big day it was our easiest decision of the whole wedding and one we didn’t regret. Alice and the White Rose Bakes team made this the smoothest and most exciting time. Firstly we discussed what flavours we liked and how they could be done. We aren’t the conventional wedding cake type and the offer of salted caramel chocolate cake and chocolate mint which are our favourite flavours was so perfect. Then came decoration and style I simply wanted a white shimmery cake with a meringue style decoration. I was worried about asking for something quite simple and unusual. However Alice was happy to oblige and designed exactly what we envisaged. As soon as we saw it on the day we were so overwhelmed at how visually stunning it was and we already knew it would taste amazing which of course it did. We had so many compliments from our friends and family who we couldn’t wait to tell where it came from. We would highly recommend White Rose Bakes to everyone we can.

Fantastic from start to finish
Alice and the team were fantastic from start to finish with our wedding cake & dessert table (plus a 85th birthday cake for my Granny thrown in)! We had a fair few dietary requirements and they were easily met with the end result being fabulous cakes that you wouldn’t know were gluten, dairy or egg free! The cakes looked amazing on the day decorated in fabulous flowers and many guests sought us out to say how nice they were!

Little touches made it effortless and enjoyable
Alice was a delight to work with from the start - she was fine with the idea of a vegan wedding cake, which we were slightly worried about finding at first, and invited us to the bakery to taste some different flavours. It was fascinating to see where the magic happens and we had a great time stuffing our faces and enjoying all the different tastes...but that wasn't all! When it was time to go, Alice presented us with some extra wee cakes to take with us so we could reflect on the flavour choices at our leisure. Little touches like that just made all our dealings with White Rose Bakes so effortless and enjoyable. On the day, the cake looked perfect and was exactly what we'd asked for - three layers of vegan cake, each a different flavour (the chocolate was the most popular, as we predicted!) and some extra gluten free cakes on the side, which also went down a treat. Knowing that we had Alice in charge of our cake made the day go stress free, and we really enjoyed eating it too, which was a bonus. Thank you!

We will recommend you in a heartbeat
Wow, thank you so much for decorating the cake!! We were wondering who did that. So grateful! The cake was a huge success and all the guests loved it, as we knew they would. One of the guests said that was the best wedding cake she ever had! :) We will certainly recommend you in a heartbeat in the future.

Probably the best cake we've ever tasted
Not to be dramatic, but this was probably the best cake we've ever tasted. We went with White Rose Bakes for our wedding cake for October 2018. First of all, Alice was amazing when it came to discussing flavours. She took a flavour we were keen on, tweaked it with her expertise, and turned it into our favourite cake ever (lavender and earl grey with blueberry jam and buttercream, if you were wondering). She also made us an excellent tier of spiced pumpkin and apple to match our autumn theme. The taste of the cake was incredible. Literally the best we have had. And this was even better because we had tried a few different wedding cake suppliers and it all tasted kind of meh. We had resigned ourselves to the fact that wedding cake was never going to be sublime, but then we met Alice. Please don't go with an inferior wedding cake when you can get something that tastes like this. We wanted a very simple design and Alice helped us through, although looking at other cakes White Rose Bakes have made I have no doubt they have the skills to do design any sort of cake you can think of. Alice decorated with fresh flowers from our florist on the day, and it looked absolutely perfect. Oh, and it was a fair bit cheaper than other places we were looking at - for more cake. Please please please visit White Rose Bakes as your first port of call for a wedding cake!

Our perfect vegan naked wedding cake
We can’t thank you and your staff enough for the beautiful vegan wedding cake you made for us. There were so many comments by guests on how delicious it was and we both agreed that is was one of the best cakes we had ever tasted. You made the whole process of us buying a wedding cake from beginning to end so effortless. Being able to combine your helpful suggestions with our ideas resulted in our perfect vegan naked wedding cake. Thanks again.

"Stunning and tasted even better"
The cakes you made for us were absolutely amazing. I thought I had tasted everything and had loved every mouthful - then when sat at home yesterday I tasted the wedding cake and was blown away again. The desserts looked stunning and tasted even better and it was so lovely to be able to come and taste everything in advance. The hardest part was picking which to have. The guests to-a-man have said they were some of the best desserts they have ever eaten and were way over and above the usual wedding fare - thank you so much for putting the icing on our special day!

"The best puddings they’d had at a wedding"
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for the selection of miniatures you provided for our wedding. They went down so well and numerous guests commented they were the best puddings they’d had at a wedding (the caramel slice was particularly popular!) Thank you as well for setting them up so beautifully. Thank you again!

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

I once provided a tiered cake and desserts for a couple who were hosting their own beautiful wedding at home. They were very welcoming, helpful and friendly when I arrived to set up. They were cool as cucumbers while they and their family and friends bustled about cooking all of the savoury food and getting everything (and everyone) ready for the celebrations. This already seemed like more work and responsibility than most couples take charge of on their wedding day... then they told me that they had only finished building the kitchen the day before! Their calm, down-to-earth, can-do attitude was inspiring, and makes this a particularly memorable wedding!
