The rest of this week 💖

Secret garden vibes for this mixed texture 3 tier delivered to Thorpe Garden - the bride wanted a ‘’messy” iced texture top tier and stripe/ribbed effect base 2 tiers and I love the contrasting textures!! Decorated on site with florals provided by Bloom Collective 💗

Mediterranean vibes with this burnt orange beaut 🧡 3 tier vegan cake decorated in orange & terracotta vibes! Bit of free rein on this one, was given the colour scheme and told texture, love how it turned out! Delivered to a farm in Cheshire which suited the rustic vibes! Florals from Flamingo Floral Designs who always nails the brief 🙌🏻 great feedback from the Bride this morning, she loved it and her guests couldn’t believe it was vegan cake! One 5 year vegan said it was probably the best they’d ever had 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 this cake was vegan due to the couples sons allergies so I’m so glad it tastes good enough to convert the dairy & egg eaters too 🧡

Triple wedding weekend starting with this pearl single tier delivered to The Premier Suite in Cannock 🖤 my Pearl design will always be up there with one of my faves!

Tomorrows weddings are taking me to Holmes Chapel and Thorpe Garden 🩷 however I’ll be open next Saturday for lots of treats 💕💕💕💕

Yesterday’s navy & white 3 tier was delivered to Bilston Brook Wedding Barn - completed with incredibly detailed clay topper the couple had commissioned!

So much love for a classic semi naked 🩷 delivered to the gorgeous Hanbury Barns Wedding Venue 💕

Wasn’t exaggerating when I said I’d been busy this week 👀

Back at Thorpe Garden for this edible flower 2 tier 💕 Thorpe is genuinely the most stunning venue especially in summer when the gardens are in full bloom, this floral beaut certainly fits right in!

I LOVE being back at the stunning Rowton Castle - glorious sunshine yesterday meant an outside ceremony for the couple and I set up this dessert table inside - 3 tier semi naked cake dressed in fresh fruit then surrounded by brownies, blondies, rocky road, cookies & cupcakes ❤️ don’t mean to toot my own horn but it’s just PERFECTION 😍😍

Don’t forget the shop counter is CLOSED UNTIL 13th JULY!! Wedding season in full swing! I’m COMPLETELY fully booked for the next 2 weeks, legit can’t even fit in a crumb, I’m SO BUSY!! Also suffering with migraines a lot over the past couple of weeks so please bear with me for message replies as I’m reducing screen time 🩷

Just adore 😍 striped texture effect 3 tier with dusty blue florals & matching biscuits 🩵🤍 delivered to Weston Hall yesterday for Danica & Ryan’s gorgeous wedding!

🩷

Next up was Crewe to the gorgeous Betley Court Gardens - a wedding planned completely by Bespoke Creations - a textured petal cake with edible flowers to compliment the stunning colours of fresh florals 🩵🩷🧡

Double wedding day yesterday! First one was this huge 4 tier!! It was almost 3 foot tall and I could see it from my rear view mirror wobbling away for the 90 minute journey, that was STRESSFUL 🤣 but proud to say it arrived to Eastwood Hall in Nottingham in one piece! The pearl design is definitely one of my most popular and I’ll never tire of it 😍

Due to wedding commitments the shop counter is closed until 13th July! Sorry for any inconvenience- if you need to pop in to speak to me about anything then I’m in during the week (message before incase I have a weekday wedding) or I’m availing tomorrow after 2pm as I’ve got deliveries to Nottingham & Crewe tomorrow 💕💕

Oh… and somehow found time to move into my first home - all the credit goes to my parents for doing the work seen as I got the keys then haven’t had a single day off work for over 6 weeks 🥴 I’ve enjoyed online shopping though 🤣 once the house is finished I wanna redecorate the shop… 👀🤣

When I say I’m busy, I really ain’t exaggerating… all those wedding cakes I’ve listed today and these cakes the past 5 weeks 🥴

And just like that we are fully caught up on wedding posts from the past 2 months (phew) here’s yesterdays, LOVE this set up at The Moat House Acton Trussell - single tier & 70 mixed cupcakes 😍

My first visit to The Upper House, Barlaston - a trio of cakes, brownies / blondies and marble stamped biscuits for the lovely Nikki & Sharon & their 3 pooches 💖💖

Another 3 tier semi naked, this one travelled to Delbury Hall - The Coach House Wedding Venue in Shropshire 💕 dressed with artificial florals supplied by Sorella Florist & Event Stylist and a Star Wars inspired topper from the couple 🩷

Always love being back at Coton House Farm Wedding Venue - a 3 tier semi naked dressed with fresh flowers from Flamingo Floral Designs 🤍
