One of our most memorable creations was a spectacular wedding cake designed for a celebration at The Savoy. The cake featured five tiers with a selection of fruit cake, salted caramel, chocolate, vanilla, and raspberry with white chocolate flavours.
The design included over 100 handcrafted sugar flowers, countless delicate sugar leaves, a cascading base of petals, and hidden lighting elements that brought the entire display to life. It was a true centrepiece and remains one of our favourite commissions.
Absolutely. Every couple is unique, and we love creating bespoke flavour combinations.
If you have a favourite dessert, family recipe, seasonal ingredient, or a flavour idea you would like to explore, we can develop something exclusively for your wedding cake. We simply ask for a little extra time to perfect the recipe and create something truly special for your celebration.
Yes, decorative tiers can be incorporated into your design if required. However, many couples are surprised to learn that fake tiers do not significantly reduce the overall cost of a wedding cake.
While the ingredients are not required, the same level of artistry, craftsmanship, covering, decorating, and finishing is still involved. Every tier, whether real or decorative, must look flawless in the final design.

Delivery charges are calculated based on distance and venue location, with costs varying depending on travel requirements and installation complexity. We ensure every cake arrives in perfect condition and is beautifully presented, ready for your celebration.
We recommend booking your wedding cake as early as possible, particularly if your wedding falls during peak wedding season. Popular dates can become fully booked many months in advance.
Ideally, couples should secure their date between six and twelve months before their wedding. However, if your celebration is approaching sooner, please get in touch as we may still be able to accommodate your request.

We offer a selection of our most popular flavours and can also discuss bespoke options during the consultation. Many couples find the tasting experience one of the most enjoyable parts of planning their wedding.

Every wedding cake is individually designed and priced based on the number of guests, design complexity, decorative details, sugar-flower work, flavours, and delivery requirements.
As a guide, bespoke wedding cakes typically start from £500. Luxury fondant-covered designs featuring handcrafted sugar flowers, intricate detailing, hand painting, colour matching, and bespoke decorative elements generally range from £900 to £1,500+.
Couples often ask why luxury wedding cakes command higher prices. The answer lies in the craftsmanship involved. Each cake requires many hours of design, baking, decorating, finishing, and careful setup, along with premium ingredients and years of specialist experience.
