Wedding cakes

Let us lovingly create your dream cake that suits your unique style, colour theme, tastebuds and individuality.

Wedding cake trends come and go and cupcakes still seem to be the cake of choice going into 2010. There are so many different toppers to choose from your choice is only as limited as your imagination! In stacked cakes couples are going for a more classic look with cleaner lines and less "fussy" decorations seen in years gone by. We have many new designs being created, so keep an eye out for some wonderful new cakes coming soon...

Because each cake is different and has many variables it is hard to have a fixed price list for every cake. Flowers and figurines are handcrafted with a special edible sugarpaste, they are time consuming to make and therefore a price will be given when we know exactly what is required.

Wedding Cake Sizing guidelines

If you have other desserts at your wedding your guests will generally require only a small finger size portion. If however your cake is the main dessert you will want to serve a more generous portion and it is a good idea to ask the caterers to serve the cake with some lovely berry couli or chocolate fudge sauce and a nice dollop of whipped cream!

Two tier cakes Size (inches) Size (inches) Serves
Round 8 6 35-50
Round 10 8 50-70
Square 8 6 52-75
Square 10 8 75-105

Three tier cakes Size (inches) Size (inches) Size (inches) Serves
Round 8 6 4 42-60
Round 10 8 5 65-90
Square 8 6 4 63-90
Square 10 8 5 97- 135

Consultations for cakes

I am happy to provide a no obligation consultation. These are available by appointment only. Bring along with you any pictures you may have or ideas of things you like and we will go from there. Please see my Contact us page to get in touch.

Icing

Edible Icing
Edible icing can be used in many ways and incorporated into your cake design if required. For example you may have a picture of a family member that you would like on your cake or if you would like your company logo printed onto a cake or cupcakes this can be done as well.

Icing
I use fondant icing which is a sweet pliable icing that can be moulded and coloured. Buttercream icing is also used under the fondant layer and can be flavoured to your requirements.

Marzipan, otherwise known as almond icing is only used on fruit cakes or by request.

Pick up
You are welcome to pick up your cake. Please make sure you have plenty of space in your car boot. It is not advisable to put cakes on the front or back seat of a car as it is not a flat stable surface for such a delicate item.

Damages
Cakes must be kept cool (especially in Auckland's humid weather) and flat. It is advisable to take your cake straight to the venue after pick up.
Please don't put your cake in the fridge as this will ruin it.
