The bride had seen and fallen in love with this cake when she saw our display at a wedding fayre. In order to personalise the design, the bride supplied us with monogram cake toppers to accent the top tier. This striking five tier cake with its chic, modern lines fitted perfectly with the stunning backdrop of Cardiff Bay. Each of the five tiers was decorated with a simple white satin ribbon and a hand strung band of stunningly sparkling Swarovski crystals which co-ordinated perfectly with the offset separators. Each of the separators was hand strung with Swarovski crystals which cascaded between the tiers to give the effect of water droplets - a design inspired by Ron Ben Israel and his amazing cake that featured in the film Sex and the City 2. The design was completed with stylish, scented orchids giving a truly opulent and sophisticated centrepiece to the stunning venue.

Glen-yr-Afon Wedding Experience
This cake offers a modern twist on a traditional design by combining a small three tier cake with co-ordinating mini-cakes and cupcakes - a wonderful centrepiece for a traditional, yet modern couple. The three tier cake, decorated in hues of cream, features a rose corsage detail giving a chic, simple feel. The "petite" three tier cake gives a boutique edge when combined with an array of mini-cakes, cupcakes and mini-cupcakes all displayed on an acrylic stand. The co-ordinating cupcakes are encased in beautiful filigree wrappers and decorated with hand-made icing accents to give that extra special touch. This design juxtaposes two styles, offering an alternative option to normal cupcake towers, and thus results in a truly elegant focal point to any venue.

The subtle cream hues echoed those of vintage porcelain and fitted perfectly with the shabby chic vintage stand on which the cake was displayed.

Autumnal Tones
This wedding cake featured a selection of cupcakes and a quirky top tier designed to embrace the autumnal theme of the day. The cupcakes included fondant topped apple and pumpkin designs and swirled buttercream cupcakes with individual pumpkins, apples , and leaves all handmade from icing. The top cake was a hand carved pumpkin design which played home to two cute harvest mice. The cupcakes included lemon, chocolate, carrot, vanilla and spiced apple varieties (the carrot cakes being made by the bride). The autumnal tones of the cake blended with the stunning decoration of the wedding venue which featured hand-carved pumpkins, striking floral displays, tea lights, the architectural wooden beams of the barn itself and some truly unique, quirky touches.
