Monochrome Wedding Cake


This monochrome design was pure simplicity. Featuring a hand painted monogram that echoed that of the wedding invitation, the look was completed with sleek black and white cotton ribbons and a plinth of gypsophilia. The whole ambiance of the design was inspired by the Bride's engagement ring - truly memorable!

Lesley & Steve - vintage elegance



So "en vogue" at the moment is the vintage theme - this time in hues of ivory and burgundy. This cake was created for a couple where the Bride loved fruit cake and the Groom loved Victoria sponge - the solution, a fruit top tier combined with Victoria and lemon sponge cupcakes. The top tier included handmade sugar roses, open roses, tulips, hydrangea blossoms and greenery to replicate the floral displays that adorned the Glen yr Afon House Hotel, and was completed with a handmade, icing bow. The cupcakes, incorporated various vintage nods including pearls, bows, lace and of course flowers. Complementing the table display were Welsh cake favours with handwritten tags and ribbon to co-ordinate with the colour scheme - visit our Facebook page to see more.

Floral Ruffles & Pearls

 
We displayed this design, with fresh flowers, at the Glen Yr Afon Wedding Fayre where the bride and groom fell for it's simplicity and elegance. In order to customise the design, handmade ruffled icing flowers were added to echo the flower that featured on the bridal gown. The flowers were accented with Swarovski crystals and pearls, creating synergy with the Swarovski pearl cascade stand and echoing the pearl embroidery design that featured to the circumference of each tier. The cake featured tiers of light Victoria sponge filled with vanilla buttercream and strawberry conserve, moist carrot cake with spiced mascarpone filling and a traditional, luxurious fruit cake.
