Reveal Back
7 Tier Wedding Cake
When Christian and Rachel announced their engagement, they explained they’d like their wedding cake to be a showstopper – but with a surprise!
The stunning Essex wedding venue created a beautiful backdrop for the elegant 7-tiered wedding cake, but this was no ordinary cake! If the front of the cake didn’t wow guests, the reveal back certainly did as it took them on a global road trip – destination honeymoon!
The entire cake rotated, so everyone could see every part of this classic white wedding cake, with a modern twist.
Two sweet love birds, wise owls, complete with top hat and veil, tied a heart-shaped love knot at the top of the cake, sealing their love in marriage.
The ribbons flowed down the reveal back to frame a fairy tale story of love, from the first date to the wedding day.
The classic white, chic canvas was simply but elegantly decorated with delicate white scalloped royal icing.
The glamourous pearlised 2nd tier featured hundreds of tiny, hand-piped royal icing dots, with intricate edible lace.
Luxuriously hand-painted cocoa butter flowers encircled their initials, personalising the stunning design to the newlyweds.
Further down the cake saw diamond-bright sparkles, thousands of tiny love hearts, pearls and further royal icing detail.
Elegance and WOW factor flowed down to the huge lower tier (so huge it could only go through double doors).
Not only was the front stunning, but when the cake rotated, guests were shocked to see the true feature of the cake - Christian and Rachel’s love story was there for everyone to see.
The Reveal Back
Rachel and Christian’s first date in Trafalgar Square. If you look closely, you can even see where they went for meal and drinks, near Nelson’s Column.
Tier 2 - a shared love of crazy golf on the Isle of Wight
Third tier - a memorable holiday to Dunn’s River Falls in Jamaica was created out of sugar!
Tiers 4 and 5 - watching Doncaster Rovers at the Keepmoat stadium and the Charter Day Dellissima Cakes market stall, which Rachel and Christian are usually found at!
The 6th tier reflected a holiday to a Malaysian rainforest (spot the monkey) in Langkawi and the Sepang Formula 1 circuit. We recreated a scene from a holiday snap with Christian’s favourite team ahead – Ferrari!
On the final tier claret ribbons widened to show the happy couple in a hand-made, vintage F2000 Ferrari F1 car, driving off to their honeymoon in St Lucia! It was as though they’d driven straight from the race circuit. It really was made from icing!
Never have we seen such a huge cake devoured so quickly by guests that knew they’d be getting great tasting wedding cake! It’s no surprise really, we only use the finest ingredients in our cakes.
The Flavours
Classic Fruitcake
These were probably the deepest, rich and dark fruitcakes we’ve ever baked, standing a whopping 6” tall! The Cognac soaked fruitcakes were sumptuous, their fruits swollen with deliciousness, wrapped in marzipan and the best sugarpaste.
Chocolate & Peanut Butter
Peanut butter and smooth salted caramel were married with our Signature Chocolate Cake tier to give the ultra-moist, rich, chocolate hit! We didn’t stop there. We coated the 6” tall cake in the finest Belgian dark chocolate ganache to give true luxury.
Zesty Lemon & White Chocolate
Our Zesty Lemon sponge cake was tantalisingly tangy! Rich with lemon curd and fresh lemons, it never disappoints. It was wrapped in a generous layer of rich, Belgian white chocolate, zesty lemon ganache. Taste buds were singing! (or was that the happy guests?)
Sticky Toffee
The Sticky Toffee Cake, teamed up with smooth caramel sauce and toffee buttercream, was a winner! If you’ve ever wanted a pudding in a cake, this was it! If there was ever a case for a tasting experience online, this is it!
