LAS VEGAS WEDDING cake
Having eloped to Vegas and married in secret, Maxine and Jason approached me to make their wedding cake for their UK after-party for their friends and family. After telling me all details that were important to them, I proposed this bold design that encompasses all things Vegas. One tier was a fruit machine cake, with bespoke winning reels I designed, topped off with an edible personalised Vegas sign.
The design also included edible sugar work poker chips, playing cards, an Elvis cutout, a hand modelled poodle figurine and a roulette wheel bearing the date of their party.
KING PENGUINS WEDDING cake
This penguin-loving couple wanted a realistic pair of king penguins for their big day, and I was delighted to make their dreams come true. With delicious lemon sponge paired with lemon curd and buttercream, the cake itself was a classic flavour, but the design was certainly not your average wedding cake!
Standing 1.5ft tall, the pair were holding flippers and somehow look right at home here in the setting of the top of the Gherkin tower in the City of London where the reception was held.
‘OLD LONDON MYSTERIES’ WEDDING CAKE
Bruno and Manuela had an ‘Old London Mysteries’ theme to their wedding which meant I could get really creative with the brief. I proposed this stack of aged books, personalised with the happy couple’s names and wedding date. The cake itself was a gorgeous light lemon sponge with lemon curd and vanilla buttercream. All accompanied by edible sugar work that included a rustic candlestick, magnifying glass and an old-style map of London.
STACK OF SUITCASES WEDDING CAKE
Kevin and Cisco wanted to reflect their shared passion for travel, and asked for a stack of vintage suitcases as their wedding cake, and I totally ran with it!
I asked the couple to send me some photos of their favourite trips, which I turned into edible postcards. To really set the scene I added passports, stickers, and even designed personalised airline tickets that contained the the date and time of their ceremony – all 100% edible of course.
Traditional wedding cakes
I can also turn my hand to more traditional looking wedding cakes too…!
PRESSED FLOWERS WEDDING CAKE
This couple wanted a more simple and elegant cake that matched the theme and colour palette of their floral displays and wedding decor.
Here, a simple white cake shows off the bright colours of these edible pressed flowers, ranging from cornflours to gerberas.
Inside were strawberry and lemon flavour sponges which complemented the colours beautifully
