Sparkly sugar roses


Iced in white and trimmed with Bridal white double satin ribbon, this lovely, sparkly cake was a gem adorned with beautiful handmade sugar roses for a wedding at Thornton Hall.
Looking great on the outside is only one part and with an inside of Chocolate Baileys cake with Chocolate Baileys truffle cream and French Vanilla cake with Champagne and strawberry preserve, we had to stop ourselves from eating it all up!

Christmas Cupcakes


We had a lovely day at The Olive Tree in Brimstage on Friday teaching three lovely ladies how to decorate their Christmas cupcakes. These are a few of their cupcakes at the end of the day. We were so impressed with such a Fantastic job from all of them! I certainly hope our jobs are safe!
It was such a lovely afternoon, fire roaring, snow covered ground and gorgeous Warm Mince pie candles reminding us that Christmas is just around the corner! www.flowersbytheolivetree.co.uk/

Autumnal Beauty


We made this lovely simply decorated cake for Holly and Steven's wedding at Thornton Hall recently. We loved the autumnal colours and the flower decoration supplied by William and Benjamin florists in Heswall.

Kelly and Craig


Ever since we were asked to make this cake earlier in the year, we have looked forward to it. Kelly and Craig wanted a simple design with dark ivory ribbon wrapped around each tier sprinkled with diamantes. The end result was more than we expected.

The twists of ribbon with occasional diamante matched the stationery from Dragonfly couture stationery. The flowers were from Earth and included a beautiful phalaenopsis orchid table decoration which finished the look.

We were so inspired that a similar cake will be appearing in our showroom very soon...

Daisy Hill at Knowsley Hall


Last Sunday Daisy Hill was delighted to exhibit at the fantastic Knowsley Hall where we took a selection of our cakes and chatted to many excited brides and grooms.

Knowsley specialises in fairytale weddings and the view from our stand was a beautiful fairytale winter wonderland.

This breathtaking table display was made by Earth flowers and we think this theme would look amazing in the coming winter months. With candles in glass cases hanging from the branches of these snow covered trees, a lovely glow warmed the winter picture and left us longing for Christmas by a roaring fire...

Leisa and Ajith




Back in the summer, Leisa came to us with design ideas of cakes that she liked. We combined elements of each cake and the result was this four tiered cake with flowers from Wendy Morrow. We love this picture of Leisa and Ajith on their big day at Rookery Hall.

American Style


In May we made this American style wedding cake for a fabulous American wedding. The table was decorated with jars of sweets which we thought complimented the cake and the whole theme of the wedding.

Six tier Diamond Daisy Cake




We made a beautiful six tier version of the Diamond Daisy cake recently for a fantastic Summer wedding. After many hours handcrafting hundreds of daisies, the result was this stunning cake.

Sunflower Cupcakes


Earlier this year we were asked to create a tower of cupcakes to match Mark and Amanda's sunflower themed wedding. We think the result was fab.
