Don't Tell the Bride

While we were exhibiting our cakes at the Grand Marquee, we met a producer on the popular BBC 3 programme 'Don't tell the bride'. They are looking for couples who want to get married in 2011 and would like to get married in the very first LIVE episode of Don't tell the Bride where they will get married on the same day as Prince William and Kate Middleton on April 29th- The Royal Wedding.

Liverpool Wedding Show

This weekend we were at the Liverpool wedding show which was held in the Grand Marquee in Knowsley Safari Park. We met lots of lovely excited brides and gave some of our cakes their debut outing.

Spiralling snowflakes

This cake was one of our many over Christmas/New year and such an unusual cake.

Iced alternatively in deep red and white and trimmed with deep red double satin ribbon. Each tier was then adorned with hundreds of tiny handmade sugar snowflakes which spiralled around.

The tiny snowflakes were also a large part of the bride and grooms wedding stationery which is where we got the inspiration for this lovely cake.

New years weddings

During the lovely Christmas break we were here working away on beautiful wintry cakes for brides and Grooms who were married on New Years day.
This cake was inspired by Jane and Simon's invitations. Trimmed with Bridal white and Navy double satin ribbon, and embellished with diamantes, we think this cake looked as wintry as we felt whilst making it!

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.
