Lambeth wedding cakes
My Lambeth wedding cake designs bring timeless elegance to your celebration.
Each cake is handcrafted using traditional over-piping techniques, creating intricate layers of scrolls, swags, and delicate details that turn your cake into a true showpiece. Perfect for couples who appreciate vintage charm with a contemporary twist.
Designed to be both visually stunning and unforgettable.
Semi naked wedding cakes
A semi-naked wedding cake offers the perfect balance of refined elegance and natural beauty.
With its soft, understated finish, it allows the natural tones and textures of the cake to shine through while still feeling sophisticated and intentional.
Adorned with delicate florals, fresh berries, or subtle accents, a semi-naked design brings a timeless, romantic charm to any celebration—ideal for couples seeking luxury with a modern, effortless aesthetic.
Ganache wedding cakes
Crafted from premium Belgian chocolate, ganache creates a perfectly smooth exterior ideal for sharp edges and elegant, modern silhouettes. Its luxurious texture not only enhances the depth of flavour of the cake but also provides a resilient, high-end canvas for intricate detailing, delicate embellishments, or striking minimalist designs.
For couples seeking a cake that delivers both opulence and artistry, a ganache finish is the pinnacle of contemporary wedding luxury.
Iced wedding cakes
A couture iced wedding cake is the epitome of timeless luxury, offering a pristine, sculpted finish that transforms your cake into a true work of art.
Crafted with precision using premium icing and meticulous techniques, this style allows for exquisite detailing—from delicate lacework and refined textures to hand-painted motifs and statement wafer paper artistry.
The result is a flawlessly elegant centrepiece that reflects sophistication, individuality, and the highest level of craftsmanship.
For couples seeking a show-stopping design that feels both classic and couture, an iced finish is the ultimate expression of wedding-day refinement.
