General Information on  choosing your cake.

Most cakes can be made in 1,2,3 or 4 tiers.  Photographs do not do the cakes   justice but they do at least give you an idea.

The majority of wedding cakes these days are 3 tiers and many of those decide to have their top tier in sponge, but some couples do decide to break completely from traditional fruit cake.
 

We offer:

  1. Rich Fruit Cake
  2. Plain Sponge with Jam and Buttercream
  3. Chocolate Sponge with Chocolate Fudge
  4. Chocolate Truffle Cake
  5. Carrot Cake
  6. Ginger Cake
  7. Lemon Drizzle Cake
  8. Caramel
  9. Banana

 

If you decide to have one or more tiers made in any of these alternatives, you can be rest assured that from the outside it will look exactly like a normal fruit cake.

All cakes can be colour co-ordinated to match the rest of your colour scheme.

In most cases we will deliver your wedding cake to the reception for you, providing it is fairly local.

 

3 Tier Square:-

10",  8" & 6"   = approximately 200 portions
  12", 10" & 8"   = approximately 320 portions

3 Tier Round:-

10",  8" & 6"   = approximately 140-150 portions
  12", 10" & 8"   = approximately 240-250 portions

 

These approximate guides are worked out assuming that each portion is an inch piece and that the cake is fruit.  If a cake is sponge, you won't get as many portions out as it is usually cut slightly larger.  You also need to bear in mind that if you go for a shaped cake, e.g., Heart, Oval, Petal, etc., they are slightly smaller than a round cake - hence less portions.  If you intend to save your top tier, we recommend you use it in no more than 2-3 years.

Decorating Cakes:
