When it comes to choosing your flavours, we like to take an approach of working with you to put together something that is unique to your special day. We like to work with swiss meringue buttercream as opposed to American buttercream, just because it is really nice and silky, smooth, and it gives a beautiful finish on the exterior of the cake. Our cake sponges that we work with are also generally butter-based cakes, just so that we can construct really tall cakes so that it is inline the style that we are working towards. We have quite a broad spectrum of flavour options for our bride to choose from. Working generally from a perspective of cake filling and frosting and then combining those three elements together to make a really beautiful flavour profile that you will love and always remember. The lemon poppy seed poundcake filled with a white chocolate ganache and a basil swiss meringue buttercream. You’ll see the filling on the inside, and this is how we construct our tasters for our costumers. With the cake and the filling and the frosting on top, So the lemon poppy is quite a standard flavour with the white chocolate ganache, but the edge on the entire flavour profile is brought through by the basil Swiss meringue buttercream, which is quite unassuming. Uhm, but really comes to the fall at the end of the flavour journey. The kind of bride that will like this is somebody that likes something a little bit different.

We wouldn’t make an entire wedding cake out of this red velvet cake. We will only allow our brides to use it for the very top tee of their cake and not to go tall just because the structural integrity of an oil-based sponge is not that off a butter-based sponge and we like to avoid any dramas on the day of cakes potentially falling over.
