Wedding cake flavours
As a bespoke wedding cake maker, all my cakes are baked fresh to order, with the belief that how your cake tastes is as important as how it looks.
Each cake is made with four perfectly even cake layers as standard, separated by three generous layers of filling, and stand a minimum of five inches tall. If your cake has a sugarpaste finish, then it will have an indulgent layer of Belgian white chocolate ganache under a thin layer of Swiss fondant icing, finished with my signature clean, sharp edges.
I believe that every cake is as unique as every couple. The flavours you choose should reflect not only your personal favourites, but also your vision for the day, the season of your wedding, and who you are as a couple.
If you are having multiple tiers then why not have a different flavour for each tier to represent the many facets of your relationship. Tiers do not all need to be the same flavour, nor are there set rules about which tier you can have which flavour. You do not need to have a traditional fruit cake as the bottom tier for example.
Have a look at the flavours I offer below and see which ones suit your relationship and your day the best.
