The perfect wedding cake can form the centrepiece of the reception. Contemporary or traditional in design, it can reflect the personalities of the happy couple or it can just be simply stunning in it's own right, echoing the mood and style of the day.
Even today, when wedding ceremonies differ enormously in format, the cutting of the cake is still one of the best-known and most beloved traditions. Once the speeches have been made it is a great way for the bride and groom to gracefully return to the centre of attention as they cut the cake in front of their friends and family.
Each wedding is unique and everyone has a slightly different idea of the Perfect Cake, so it is vital that your cake maker listens to you and uses that information to create something really special for you. A talented cake maker not only interprets your ideas and thoughts to create a cake that is just right for you and your wedding, but also guides and advises if you are struggling to put your ideas into words. But remember that even the most fabulous looking cake will be a disappointment if it doesn't taste good, so make sure your chosen supplier can cook!
It is very difficult, if not impossible, to give a general idea of prices.... wedding cakes vary so enormously in style and size, from a single tier to five-plus tiers, sugar flowers or real ones, hand-made models of the bride and groom, etc. etc. A good cake maker will discuss your requirements and budget with you in detail, ensuring you get exactly what you want and that there are no nasty surprises in the quotation.
