Experience

The introduction to your journey with me

Your Wedding Cake Journey

Traditionally a wedding cake symbolises prosperity and good luck, it’s a sign of a long lasting happy union. The first cut and bite symbolises the joining of your lives together. Your cake is so much more than a tick on the wedding planning list or a second thought, she is there throughout your day, she’s a centrepiece to your reception and party, a memory and an experience. And yes I did just call her a she, she's going to be a real beauty.

​

From choosing what your cake will taste like, to design and styling should be one of the most exciting aspects of planning your wedding day.  It should be visually beautiful, suited to your story and ridiculously tasty. I am passionate about your cake being a meaningful part of your big day, the icing on the cake if you'll excuse the pun and I will be with you every step of the journey to ensure it is.

​

Please find below all the information about your experience with me from initial contact right through to your big day

Finishing Touches

I like to speak to my couples, get to know them and create the perfect cake to compliment their wedding. Maybe a cake isn't right for you and you'd like something more along the lines of a brownie stack, a dessert table or cheesecake canopies. Thats all part of our journey together.
