Apple Cake




Last month, Abigail and Sean married in true fairytale style in the fabulous venue of Peckforton Castle. Abigail's dress was a gorgeous custom Hollywood Dreams creation - so stunning we've included some pics for you to enjoy. A subtle apple theme ran throughout the wedding - roses, lanterns, ivy and apples decorating the red carpet leading up the aisle, toffee apples as favours for the men, crab apples in Abigail's bouquet - and of course the Apple Cake (with tiers of Spiced Caramel Apple Cake and Boozy Fruit Cake - yum!!). Simply beautiful! Abigail runs her own wedding planning business, so if you would like to benefit from her style and wedding expertise, she can be contacted via Abigail@bentleybrides.co.uk or 07775730579. Thanks for the photos Abigail! xx

Butterflies and Roses

Mel and Paul's wedding at Hillbark last month was FABULOUS!! Here is a picture of the gorgeously vintage cake we created for them - 4 tiers of delicate sugar rosebuds and butterflies dusted with edible glitter. Displaying it on a pedestal and antique glass cake stand really added to the impact. To see more pictures of their special day, check out the images taken by one of our favourite photographers, Lisa Aldersley.

Art Deco Classy Cake

Claire and Tony's wedding at The Leverhulme Hotel was stylish, glamorous and elegant. The black and white theme of the big day complemented the art deco feel of the venue, and The Classy Cake worked fabulously finished with black double satin ribbon. We baked four different flavours including a gluten free tier and set the cake up in the entrance to the venue - Claire sent us this lovely shot taken by one of her friends. Thanks Claire! xx

Vintage Rosebuds

We love the unusual arrangement of this cake - a square base and 3 round tiers adds a twist to the vintage feel of the design. Finished with gorgeous handmade sugar rosebuds, a pearl trim and fresh dusky pink roses, this cake complemented the romantic theme of Laura and Mark's reception. The French Vanilla Cake with Champagne, Strawberry and Buttercream was a perfect accompaniment to the Bacon Butties served in the evening - yum!
