Layer cakes – All our cakes are filled and covered in Italian meringue buttercream plus other delicious fillings depending on your choice of cake flavour from our menu. Our fondant decorated cakes are filled and masked in Belgian chocolate ganache.
Novelty sculpted cakes –
Our novelty cakes are only offered in a dense and moist Belgian chocolate mud cake specifically made for novelty cakes and filled and covered in Belgian white or dark chocolate ganache, followed by a layer of fondant icing or modelling chocolate. The thickness of the fondant/ modelling chocolate is determined by the design and even though it is made from sugar and it is completely edible, it is not intended to be eaten but of course you can!.
Hand sculpted cake toppers and other edible decorations are made using a variety of edible products, including fondant, wafer paper, tempered chocolate, modelling chocolate and pastillage. They are made as decorations and not intended for consumption.
Every cake we create is designed individually and quoted based on your event details. Please complete our enquiry form with as much information as possible, this helps us understand your vision and provide an accurate response.
