Let’s dive in!
Classic Elegance
Think smooth fondant, soft white palettes, and delicate lace patterns. These timeless designs never go out of style and suit everything from ballroom affairs to intimate ceremonies.
Fairytale Cakes
Enchanted forests, castle-inspired tiers, and magical detailing—these cakes look like they belong in a storybook. Ideal for whimsical, fantasy-themed weddings.
Flower Cakes
Edible blooms, sugar petals, and floral cascades make these cakes fresh and romantic. Whether bold or minimalist, flowers add a touch of nature and beauty to every design.
Fruit Cakes
Bright, juicy, and full of color—fruit cakes are fresh, vibrant, and perfect for summer weddings. They’re also a hit with health-conscious guests looking for a lighter option.
Personal Cakes
These cakes tell your love story. Incorporate hobbies, pets, travel memories, or meaningful quotes for a cake that’s truly one of a kind.
Real Flower Cakes
For those who love organic beauty, real flowers can be a show-stopping feature. Carefully chosen blooms match your bouquet and decor, adding authenticity and elegance.
Rustic Cakes
Think naked cakes, buttercream swirls, and earthy tones. Rustic cakes are perfect for barn weddings, outdoor celebrations, and couples who love a laid-back vibe.
Seasonal Cakes
Celebrate the time of year with seasonal flavors and decor—pumpkin spice for autumn, berries for summer, or evergreen details for winter. Each cake embraces the beauty of the season.
Sweet Corner
Why stop at one cake? A sweet corner offers cupcakes, mini cakes, donuts, macarons, and more. It’s playful, photogenic, and a guest favorite!
Two-Sided Cakes
Why choose one design when you can have two? These cakes feature dual themes—often one traditional and one fun or geeky. A great compromise for couples with different tastes.
Vivid Colours
Bold, bright, and unapologetically fun—these cakes are for couples who love to make a statement. Think ombré, watercolor effects, and striking color palettes.
Cheese Cakes
Not a fan of traditional sweets? Cheese wedding cakes made from tiers of artisan cheeses are a savory and sophisticated alternative. Perfect for wine lovers and rustic-themed weddings.
