Together, they selected the flavours for their tiers, which included fruit cake, chocolate and vanilla & strawberry, meaning their guests were spoilt with a variety of choices to devour.
Dawn and Alastair loved the idea of a tall wedding cake but they didn’t want excess cake leftover, so we decided to incorporate a dummy bottom tier and shallow dummy tiers between the actual cake layers.
Embracing the brief of flowers, their wedding cake design featured oodles of intricate handcrafted sugar flowers that cascaded down the cake, artfully mirroring the fresh flowers that were used to style their venue. Framed with an array of delicate rose gold paint flicks, the flowers instantly added elegance to the design, aligning with the couple’s overall wedding theme.
A hand-dyed organic silk ribbon was tied around the base of the cake, matching the ribbon of the bride’s bouquet – it really was the perfect finishing touch! I even suggested to Dawn and Alastair to keep this ribbon to tie all their wedding cards together, adding a personal touch while creating a cherished keepsake from their wedding day.
