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.

Lace Elegance

This four tier, vintage inspired design, featured handmade icing lace to the first and third tiers and handmade icing bows to the second and fourth tiers. The bow detailing reflected the beautiful design of the bride's dress and the shot of bold colour to the separator echoed the colour scheme of the event. The completed cake was given a modern, quirky twist by the addition of a hand modelled bride and groom to the top tier which perfectly juxtaposed with the more traditional elements of the design. The couple selected layers of rich Belgian chocolate cake filled with Belgian chocolate ganache, Victoria sponge filled with white chocolate ganache and raspberry conserve, and an egg-free top tier especially for the bride.

Vintage Chic Wedding Cake

This cake was inspired by the lace and brooch of the brides dress. The design was elegant and understated to fit perfectly with the vintage chic theme of the day. The hand cut and hand piped lace detailing was accented with an icing bow and vintage crystal brooch.
