My daughters. It was my first so I was nervous about everything including dealing with on the day but it was so beautiful and her face when she saw it will live in my heart forever. Since then I have made wedding cakes for 2 more of my daughters both following emergency surgeries after falls. Despite the stress I learned that nothing is impossible as one of them was done with pins and plaster on my wrist.
Floral,vintage, imaginative, creative ,
Completing every cake ordered despite a broken shoulder. I couldn't bear to give up any of the designs or the brides I had got to know so worked with a colleagues help and never let anyone down.
Book the cake decorator when you find " the one" even if you are not ready to sort the detail. Many are sole traders so when order books are full they are full .
Cupcakes with a name on instead of place cards
Meet, taste, talk quantities and take on board any ideas . Come up with design , approve or tweek, deliver and enjoy.
Luscious Lemon but chocolate Baileys is a close second
I created a cake and cupcakes for a couple who were arborists (tree specialists). The bride loved roses and they had a Labrador. The cakes were all designed with trees or roses on them and the models for the top included their dog.
I started at college as a hobby but after competing in a couple of competitions and winning my daughter sneakily set up a Facebook page, website and got me business cards so instead of decorating polystyrene dummies I had cakes instead.
Something with life size sugar peonies on it. They are my favourite flower both real and to make in sugar.
