St.Fagans to Fishguard

Two wedding cakes for two weddings this weekend and over 100 miles between them.

On friday we delivered to a new venue for us - St.Fagans Castle nr Cardiff and on Saturday we drove the other way to the Fishguard Bay Hotel in Fishguard. It took us over 2 hours to drive to Fishguard with a 5 tier wedding cake which weighed an absolute tonne.Thankfully we deliverd the cake without any hiccups.

The theme for the wedding was Red and White and the bride and groom had over 250 guests attending the wedding breakfast. In order to satisfy all tastes we supplied four different cake flavours, fruit cake, madeira cake, chocolate cake and carrot cake.

The St.Fagans wedding was a more intimate affair with only 40 guests and the setting in a private room in St.Fagans castle was absolutely fabulous. For the wedding cake the bride choose a 3 tier cake decorated with white flower blossoms.

This week we opened our wedding books for 2011 and already most of the consultations times for the next month have already been taken.

If you are looking to order a cake for 2011 especially for the busy summer months or the bank holiday weekends please don't leave it too late to speak to Sian.

Swansea Life Madeira Cake recipe

September's edition of Swansea Life magazine features Sian's recipe for Madeira sponge and vanilla buttercream. This is by far the most popular type of cake we baked for celebrations such as birthdays and weddings.

The article shows pictures of cakes we have have designed recently for Yellow Jersey Tour de France Cake and a 1970's Disco inspired cake. Also featured is a pink and white pipped Wedding Cake, designed to look like a wrapped present.

 

This cake was also featured in this months edition of South Wales Your Wedding Magazine along with a previous chocolate creation of Sian's called "Jardin du Chocolat".

 

Our wedding books are now open for 2011 and Sian is taking booking for wedding consultations every Saturday morning during September through to mid November. If you would like to book a consultation please send us an email [email protected] or telephone 01639 813166.
