How to choose your wedding cake designer
Whether it serves as the dessert for your guests, or a centrepiece at your reception; whether you keep it simple and classic with a Victoria sponge or emulate your inner royal - inspired lemon and elderflower sponge; whether you choose two tiers or five - a bespoke wedding cake is both a delicious treat and a memorable moment from your big day.
For those couples who want to inject a little personality into their wedding cake, in the form of decoration or a bespoke flavour, finding the right wedding cake designer can be challenging - and it can leave you with more tasters and portfolios than you know what to do with!
That’s why we’ve created this quick guide to choosing a wedding cake designer, helping couples from all walks of life turn that cake cutting photo into a memory they will treasure.
The value of a bespoke wedding cake
A bespoke wedding cake allows you to put your own unique spin on the centrepiece of your dessert table - encompassing the things that make you a couple, in a delicious treat that all your guests can enjoy.
When it comes to finding the right wedding cake designer, you should be looking for a company or individual who takes pride in both the aesthetic appearance and taste of the cake - recognising that the look and taste of the cake are equally important.
Here are a few other things to look for and consider when selecting a wedding cake designer:
They should inspire as well as listen
In our experience as an awarded cake designer for wedding cakes across London and Bristol, most couples have an idea of how they want their wedding cake to look - but they are also open to any inspiration and ideas that we can present.
Whether in the form of photos from past creations, reviews from other couples, or concept drawings and sketched designs, a great wedding cake designer will take your ideas and cake goals and turn them into something magical - in many cases, better than you could ever have imagined.
They include delivery and installation
An often overlooked part of the wedding cake process is how it will arrive at and be displayed in the venue. Here at Posh & Cake we consider the delivery and set up of your wedding cake at your venue to be an integral part of the service that we offer - ensuring that your cake is safe and secure between leaving our studio and being displayed at the venue.
They offer a wedding cake consultation
We believe that it is only after meeting you and your partner, in person or by video, that we are able to create the perfect wedding cake for you. That’s why our wedding cake consultations are such an important part of the process - learning what makes you the couple you are and getting to know the quirks that will help us deliver the perfect cake for you.
