Not all cakes require a consultation, most occasion cakes can be handled over the phone. However for exceptional occasion where a lot of detail is needed on the cake, as well as weddings cakes a consultation is essential.
To ensure that we have the same vision of what you would like your cake to look like, all our larger design cakes start as a detailed sketch following a consultation and tasting appointment. As a design concept you may wish to incorporate a theme or the look and style of the fabric from a dress or perhaps your invitation. A design appointment allows you the time to explore your vision and the flavour you would like the cake to be.
The inside of a cake is as important as the outside. All my cakes are made with the freshest ingredients and free-range eggs. I use traditional baking techniques to ensure that you and your guests will enjoy a moist, mouth-wateringly rich flavoured cake. With tiered cakes you can mix things up a little or a lot by having different flavoured cakes and fillings. We can accommodate for all sorts of shapes, sizes and fillings. All cakes are covered in a layer of rich chocolate ganache before I apply the final layer of the best quality Swiss fondant.
Please note that we require at least a minimum four week notice period when placing an order, 8 weeks for wedding cakes, however at times I am able to create cakes at shorter notice but this is subject to other cake commitments. Summer wedding time is always a busy period so please book early to avoid disappointment. I only accept one wedding cake in a week in order to give my full attention to your creation.
