Wedding Cakes
Your wedding is a very special occasion, and deserves an extraordinary cake. It is important to be guided by someone who knows how important this day is for you both, and understands how special and unique you wish to make your wedding cake.
Let us help you create the cake that fits you perfectly!
Tastings
We prepare a sample of three cake flavours, all of which come with a range of fillings and toppings, to find the perfect combination for you. Please advise us of the flavours you most desire. If you are having more than one tier, each tier may be a different cake flavour. We will help guide you through this process.
The appearance of your cake will effect what fillings you can have in your cake.
Cakes come in range of coverings depending on the look and taste to wish to achieve. If you would like a filling that requires refrigeration e.g. custards or pastry creams, then your cake should be covered in ganache or buttercream. If you wish to have a smooth, crisp finished look, then rolled fondant is used to cover your cake. Because fondant does not fair well with moisture, it must be filled with ganache or buttercream only. Tasting fee with consultation is $75.00. The payment for your wedding cake sampling and consultation is non-refundable once paid. It will be used as part of your wedding cake deposit for all orders over $650.
Consultation
What to considerDuring your consulation, we ask you a range of questions which help us understand how the finished product is to look, taste, and be presented. Thinking about these questions prior to attending your consultation results in a more productive meeting.
- What date and time of day is your wedding?
- Where is the reception?
- Will your cake be on display all evening/day or wheeled out by reception staff as a formal presentation?
- How many guests need to be catered for?
- Should the serving size be enough for dessert or is only a coffee sized portion required?
- What allergies or food intolerances need to be catered for?
- Will you be having fresh flowers or handmade sugar flowers?
- Will you be supplying figurines/toppers or do they need to be handmade?
- Have you set a budget for your cake? Let us know, so we may provide options that are realistic for you.
Please bring along anything that is important to you which may influence the theme or look of your cake. This is the chance to let your cake be an expression of your personalities, your artistic creativity, and reflection of the bond between you and your special partner. No judgement is passed, as this cake is for you.
Items you might like to bring along:
- photos that have inspired your wedding style
- dress fabric samples
- a copy of your invitation
- wedding jewellery
- a picture of your bouquet flowers
Delivery
Co-ordinating lots of things on your actual wedding day can be overwhelming, so we recommend including delivery and set up of your cake at the reception venue. Leave it to us to liaise directly with the location prior to the big day, and that will be one thing off your list and off your mind until you arrive at the reception.
