Iced Images Cakes - The Wedding Cake Blog

I met Sophie and Matt at  The Wedding Experience at Detling early last year. They were getting at  The Gardens, Yalding in October and planning an autumn wedding. When we met up to discuss their cake design, they had fallen in love with a log slice cake but couldn't decide on whether to go for a silver birch log or a brown wood log. After discussion I suggested why not go for both logs on the cake, no reason why not! Certainly at The Gardens, there would be both types of trees and would there for blend in amazingly with the environment. In addition they were very keen to have a cascade of flowers matching their wedding flowers as well as decorations of autumnal leaves, toadstools, acorns and other autumnal foliage. All the flowers, and decorations were made by sugar paste, including the gorgeous little toadstools and mushrooms which I have to say I am rather in love with, and the flowers were made using the information supplied by their florist to ensure they matched t...

I love the simplicity of this beautiful cake. Its actually a 3 tier cake iced to look like a 2 tier with the bottom tier being double height or double barrel. I indented the cake to give it the ruched effect and then added an edible broach made using a  Karen Davies Moulds and added various sparkles and gem shapes using dragee balls and sugar paste shapes to make a star! This cake would be great for a small intimate wedding where you aren't having too many guests, or for a birthday or other celebration. This cake was 2 x 8 inch round on the bottom and 6 inch round on the top. I personally don't think it would work in bigger tiers but you could add additional tiers and make the double barrel cake as the middle tier! Just an idea!!!

Eliza and James' winter wedding was held at Salomon's Estate in November 2018. I met Eliza and James at  The Wedding Experience , Detling in April 2018. They had no initial ideas what they wanted for their wedding cake, so when they came to visit me to discuss ideas and taste the cakes, they spent a long time flicking through my cake albums. Eliza came across a 3 tiered square cake that I had made several times with slight variations and fell in love with it there and then. We modified the cake to fit their theme and their colours, it also contained a Gluten Free top tier for the groom. The cake was iced in white icing, each tier edged in white edible pearls. Two tiers, the top and bottom were decorated in Cake Lace and the cake was finished with a cascade of burgundy, pink and white sugar work roses and sprigs of fresh gypsophilia. The cake was set up in the theatre at Salmons Estate in Tunbridge Wells, my first visit there. The cake stand was supplied by the venue. ...
