Radley Handbag and Shoes Cake

What a great cake commision this was. Ordered to celebrate the 40th wedding anniversary of a couple with a shared love of top quality leather goods – for her it’s Radley handbags and for him it’s shoes! This was an epic cake carving event on which we will blog in the next few days to show you how a cake like this is made.

These are fantastic! Can’t imagine that you want to eat them as they look so great. It is so nice to see great modern anniversary cakes, thank you!

Thank you I love doing these sort of cakes – they have much more personality than sugar carnations and roses!!

Buttercream Wedding Cake

Purple Butterfly Wedding Cupcake Tower
Bountiful is the word that comes to mind when we look at these gorgeous photographs of Joanne and Jason’s wedding cupcake tower. One hundered cupcakes with a top tier is the perfect amount to fill our seven tier maypole stand, leaving a few cupcakes to spill over from the bottom tier, inviting your guests to [...]
Art Deco Black & Gold Wedding Cake
Black and gold is a stunning colour combination, bold yet sophisticated and reminiscent of the Art Deco colour palette. We think it works really well as a wedding cake and the addition of edible diamond ‘stars’ lifts the design and gives it a little extra sparkle. The Art Deco theme is also reflected in the romantic [...]

Bish, Bash, Bosh – Malteser Tiffin
I recently added Eric Lanlard’s Home Bake to my ever expanding collection of baking books and have been enjoying experimenting with some of his ideas.

Flower Garden Cake
Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me how you iced the bottom plate/cake stand? Did you do it seperately? Any tips as to how to keep it neat when putting the sugar paste on the actual cake? Thanks in advance, :)
