Simpsons Cake

2011-07-05T22:27:00.003+02:00

Simply elegant

2010-10-10T22:42:00.001+02:00

A deep single-tier cake made of sponge. Covered with marzipan and white icing, it is trimmed with a wide white ribbon and narrow black ribbon. A piped pearl design is piped around the edge of the cake, and it is topped with a white silk flower arrangement. A simple and elegant choice.

Jeweled

2010-10-10T22:38:00.001+02:00

A three-tier cake, one of fruit and two of sponge. Covered with marzipan and pink icing, it is trimmed with wide cream ribbon and decorated with ribbon bows and diamante starburst design jewels. A simple but stylish design, this would work well in any other colour and other design of ‘jewel’.

Two examples of the same single-tier design. Covered with marzipan and ivory icing, such a cake is decorated with a free-flowing design of flowers and leaves. The cake is trimmed with ribbon. It is the perfect choice for an intimate wedding party.

Diamantes Wedding Cake

2010-10-10T22:12:00.003+02:00

A stunning three-tier cake, with the bottom tier being fruit cake and the others sponge. Covered with marzipan and ivory icing, this cake is decorated with a ‘quilted’ pattern and set with individual small diamante stones on the top and bottom tiers. It is trimmed with wide burgundy ribbon and dusky pink handmade sugar flowers. I have to say the photograph really does not do the cake justice. This cake gave an amazing sparkle when the diamantes caught the light.

Here is another diamante cake but in a different colour, with different-coloured ribbon.

Cake Size Calculator

2010-09-06T22:00:00.000+02:00

If you are not sure how large you need your cake to be for your celebration, I hope you find the following table useful:

Size in Inches	Round Fruit	Square Fruit	Round Sponge	Square Sponge
6"	25	32	14	18
7"	35	45	20	24
8"	47	60	25	32
9"	62	77	33	40
10"	72	95	39	50
11"	90	112	49	60
12"	107	135	56	72

Please be aware that the above portion sizes are very small. Traditionally, a fruit cake portion is around 1 inch x 1 inch, and a sponge cake is around 2 inch x 1 inch.

If you want your portions to be larger than this, particularly if you want to serve a wedding cake as dessert or with the tea and coffee, you will need a larger cake. It is always better to have too much cake than too little!

Sugar blossoms with figurines

2010-09-06T21:59:00.004+02:00

A four-tier cake, one of fruit and three of sponge. Covered with marzipan and ivory icing, the cake is trimmed with wide burgundy ribbon and decorated with sprays of white sugar flowers and lilies with pink centres. Figurines of the bride, groom and bridesmaid were made from details provided and, at the bride’s request, seated on the edge of the second tier for a more informal finish.

'Gift' Cake

Lemon cupcakes with daisies

2009-06-06T21:29:00.053+02:00

These large lemon cupcakes have been covered with a pale lemon icing and topped with daisies. The centre of the daisy is a silver dragee. These are very pretty and would be nice with any pale colour of icing, such as pale pink, pale green, peach or lilac.

Violet cupcakes with lovehearts

2009-06-06T21:29:00.051+02:00

These large vanilla cupcakes were covered with a violet icing (not as dark as the photo suggests) and then topped with white, pink and dark pink hearts. The contrast between the colours is very effective and would work very well with other contrasting colours, such as black and white, red and pale pink etc..

Cupcakes with sprinkles

2009-06-06T21:29:00.050+02:00

These large vanilla cupcakes have been covered with a very pale peachy pink icing and then topped with pink, pale orange and white sprinkles.

Cupcake details and price list

2009-06-06T21:29:00.046+02:00

All cupcakes are homemade and hand decorated. I use the best ingredients: butter, free-range eggs, high quality chocolate etc.. to ensure they are as tasty as possible.

Cupcakes are perfect for any celebration and look wonderful in large amounts on display. They can be used on their own, or to compliment the wedding cake. For a wedding, they could be used as part of the meal - perhaps with the coffee. Or they can be displayed for your guests to take and enjoy during the party or take home with them afterwards.

Available in any flavour, the most popular are: Vanilla, Almond, Lemon and Chocolate.

They can be topped with your choice of icing, fondant icing, buttercream or chocolate. These can all be coloured and flavoured to match your colour scheme. I use a wide range of decorations and decorating techniques to finish them to your requirements.

For standard cupcakes, the price per dozen is £10 for small and £18 for large.

Non-standard cupcakes (for example, those with handmade sugar flowers and leaves, handmade decorations, piping etc.. ) are very time consuming and so are £12 per dozen for small and £22 for large.

I am unfortunately unable to accept orders for cupcakes of less than a dozen. I am happy for you to mix and match your order with the small and large cupcakes, and with the standard and non-standard decorations. In a large display of cupcakes done in the same colour scheme, this looks very effective.

Please do make sure that you order enough for your guests. Most people will happily eat more than one and small children in particular have been known to go back again, and again, and again...

To help you display your cupcakes on your special occasion, I have a cupcake wire stand which holds 23 cupcakes, and a 5 tier acrylic stand which holds 60 cupcakes. I am happy for you to hire these for £10 each. A £20 deposit is payable which is fully refunded on the return of the items.

The cupcake stand is ideal for parties, and can be refilled as necessary. The larger, acrylic stand is ideal for larger parties or for weddings, as it displays more cupcakes and can also hold a single tier cake on the top.

Alternatively, I am able to make a stand to display your cupcakes, or single tier cake with cupcakes below. This can be made to match your colour scheme and at whatever size you require. The cost for this will be dependant upon size.

White and pink cupcakes

2009-06-06T21:29:00.044+02:00

These small and large lemon cupcakes have been topped with a mixture of white and pink icing and pink buttercream. They are then topped with a mixture of white, pink and silver decorations.

The flowers and hearts that you can see have been made by me, and so I can make any colour you would like. In reality, these cupcakes have more sparkle than the photo shows as some have been topped with sugar crystals. These give a lovely shimmering finish and are dyed by me using edible colourings. So again, they can be made any colour you like.

How delicious these would look as a large display on a stand for a wedding.
