Illustrated Wedding Cakes

An illustration is a stunning way to personalise your wedding cake. First, the cake gets covered in fondant, then the design is hand-painted on the cake. You can really let your imagination roam when it comes to choosing the design, with options ranging from the flowers in your wedding, to a meaningful quote from your first dance song.

Smaller cakes

Don’t want one big wedding cake? That’s absolutely fine. An emerging, low-key wedding cake trend is to have three or four smaller cakes instead of one large one.
