DESIGN & CONSULTATION

  • Once you have booked your wedding date, then it is time to arrange a consultation to discuss your wedding cake. It is never too early to enquire about your cake, however as a small company dates are limited.

  • Consultations are held at my home in Boundary Cottage, Monxton, Andover at a time and date to suit you including evening and weekend appointments; for a maximum of four people.

  • If you are unable to come to me, cake tasting boxes can be posted to you to try at home.

  • Consultations last about an hour, during which you will have the opportunity to try a selection of three homemade cakes and fillings of your choice with tea or coffee.

  • Do bring any items you have as inspiration for your wedding cake, colour swatches, pictures or details of dresses or flowers or even the invitations etc.

  • Following your consultation, a quote will be emailed to you for your consideration.
