A Country House Wedding

One of the (many!) perks of our job is travelling around the country to deliver and set up wedding cakes in the most amazing venues! Our first wedding at Hipping Hall was no disappointment - a gorgeous stone country house, nestling in the Lake District. The intimate setting was a perfect backdrop for a custom tower of 100 cupcakes (half chocolate aphrodisiac cakes, half very lemony lemon cakes, topped with a chocolate top tier cutting cake finished with gold ribbon) dressed with beautiful fresh roses. Thanks for the lovely photos Vanessa!! xx

Georgina and Daniel - a gorgeous winter wedding....

Georgina and Daniel's Bonfire Night wedding was divine. Dozens of deep red grand prix roses, candles and crystals. We used the pattern on Georgina's dress as inspiration for the cake, accenting the icing with their monogram. Grand Prix roses separated each tier, with peals and diamantes finishing the table. Georgina and Daniel sent us this lovely email, thank you - we loved working with you too! x

'Well its all over! I can't believe our big day has been and gone. I just wanted to thank you for making us the most beautiful wedding cake we have ever seen. Daniel and I cried when we saw it for the first time. You created something so personal to us we will never forget what an amazing job you did for us. Everyone commented on it, it didn't just look beautiful it tasted fantastic aswell!!!!!!!!!'
Thanks to Tom Lee for the great photos.

Autumnal Romance

Sarah's beautiful autumn wedding at Thornton Hall Hotel was themed around a beautiful combination of hydrangeas and vintage roses, set off by deep burgundy and charcoal accents. We created a simple stacked cake with the top tier separated with clusters of tumbling fresh flowers and scattered petals and diamantes around the cake table to really set it off - gorgeous!!

7-Tiers of Glam!

Ashley and Richie's wedding back in the summer was a glamorous black tie affair with a diamante theme running throughout. The brief for the cake was simple - a 7-tier cake to wow the guests! We created a 5ft centre piece dressed with black double satin ribbon, diamante brooches and black feathers to complement the stunning table arrangements.

Local Heroes!

Tuesday December 2nd saw the prestigious Radio City and City Talk’s Local Heroes Awards 2008 in The Royal Court. With the region’s star celebrities and a host of real life super Heroes turning out in force the event was a true celebration of the people that make Merseyside, North Wales and the North West great.

Eleven awards were handed out to deserving winners throughout the evening, celebrating people who have touched the lives of those around them, either through their generosity, selflessness, talent, sheer bravery or entrepeneurial spirit.

Daisy Hill Cake Company was delighted to be a finalist in the Business Person of the Year category alongside David M Robinson Jewellers and the winner, James Barton who founded the Cream empire pictured collecting his award. Thanks for nominating us!

To good to eat!!

Emma and Paul's wedding last weekend at Albrighton Hall in Shrewsbury was fabulous! They were married in a tiny church opposite the hotel and the reception was themed around Emma's beautiful bouquet of candy pink aqua roses. The centrepiece was a tower of individual French Vanilla Cupcakes with Champagne, Strawberry and Buttercream and Very Lemony Lemon Cakes with Lemon Curd and Lemon Cream - finished with a Boozy Fruit Cake top tier. Each cake was decorated with handmade sugar butterflies dusted with edible glitter. A dozen fresh aqua roses and petals completed the look - gorgeous!
