What is your most memorable wedding?
We have too many to mention but transporting our 5ft luxury chocolate wrap was definitely up there with ones to remember. Once at the venue we could breath a huge sigh of relief.
Describe your style in 5 adjectives.
Friendly, Romantic, Relaxed, Modern, Creative
What about your business are you most proud of?
The ability to make people smile with our cakes and to create memories. I absolutely love it when our couples get in touch after the wedding and send us happy pictures of the cake cutting moment. Best feeling ever :)
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Make sure you have fun planning. It can all become a little stressful. I've been there! Try to enjoy it and have fun together.
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
Too many to mention but I love it when our couples incorporate personal touches in to the cake. For example we had one couple who absolutely love highland cows so we made a bride and groom highland cow cake. They both love playing golf so the cows had little edible golf clubs beside them.
It was so cute.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
The initial enquiry is a good opportunity for us to gather key information such as venue, guest numbers and a basic idea of what you are looking for. We can discuss options by phone/email/video chat whilst covid restrictions are in place.
We will discuss various aspects of your wedding which will allow us to gain an understanding of your style and personality. You can secure your date with us without having a design in place so don't worry about that. We will work with you to make sure your cake is exactly as you hope.
Once Covid restrictions are lifted we love to welcome couples in to our studio to sample cake and talk face to face. This gives you the chance to browse our display cakes for ideas and inspirarions and to talk to our designer about all things cake.
What is your signature cake?
Our customers rave about our Victoria sponge. You just can't beat a classic. Oh and our toffee cake with real toffee pieces is always a huge hit.
What is the most original creation you have baked for a wedding?
We have made so many original designs including a hand painted design of the couples venue. We have also made a huge cake tower with over 500 individually made sugar flowers.
We have lots more but it would take all day :)
Describe how you got into making wedding cakes.
The company was originally set up by world famous cake artist, Paul Bradford. He had a vision for high quality, creative wedding cakes and Truly Scrumptious Designer Cakes was born. Paul then went on to pursue his dream of teaching all over the world but the original business is now in the hands of Colleen and David who are keeping the vision alive with amazing, unique cakes.
What would be your show stopper in the Great British Bake Off?
A huge Disney inspired cake with characters from every Disney movie!
