I love Christmas weddings!! Check out this tower of individually iced cake pieces, with a fruit cake top tier. Including a family of edible snowmen – bride, groom and 2 boys (complete with light sabers!) and individual cakes in carrot cake (snowmen faces), chocolate cake (parcels) and madeira sponge (snowflakes) which we made to keep with the black and green colour scheme and snowflake theme!
This Christmas wedding cake was a 12″ fruit cake, and it was displayed at a Christmas party where the bride and groom were going to announce to their family that they secretly got married!! (I love being in on a secret!!) The bride specified that she wanted a coca cola train, and suggested a santa style edible bride and groom – and left the rest to us! I made an edible christmas tree and snowballs, and decorated the cake with snowflakes. The train had ‘Mr and Mrs’ written onto it too! Cute!
This red petal cupcake tower is one of my favourite cupcake towers ever! It’s simplicity in having all vanilla topping (although there were many different flavours of sponge) and an ivory top tier, with red ribbon, cases and edible petals is so effective and striking. The top tier has red roses and cascading petals, which carries onto the cupcakes and the table too! 
How pretty is this wedding cake??! Each tier was a different flavour, and although there is a lot of detail going on, it still has a simple and elegant feel to it! We hired a ‘sweeping’ stand, as the groom really liked the cascading effect, but wanted each tier separate. We made the flowers quite chunky and all shades of pink and burgundy to match the colour scheme of the day, and arranged the flowers with bears grass to carry thought the sweeping effect.
The pattern on the side of each cake matched the brides wedding dress, and was piped on by hand using royal icing and silver sugar balls, and carried right around each cake.
This is one of my favourite wedding cakes ever! I love doing chocolate work, and also edible models – it’s rare that I get to combine the two! The idea of a 3 tier chocolate cake with different flavour chocolate on each one, and the top to have a chocolate box lid (with a purple bow!!) had me very excited, and I got to make all these different flavour chocolate truffles to cascade down the front on the cake too! I love my job.
To add a bit of humour, we made an edible bride and groom scoffing the cake!! The bride sent me photos of her dress, and we made the groom wearing his football teams kit! (a surprise from the bride to the groom)
The handmade truffles make lovely favours too – and I always make a few extra (which my husband and the Moat house staff seem to appreciate!) I had so many spare that we put them in a bowl next to the cake!!
Here is a 3 tier wedding cake 6″,8″ and 10″ in black and white, which has edible hand made flowers to match! This cake is very bold and may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I love it!! The bride brought us a photo of a similar cake and asked for a very similar design in black and white. I was told they would bring me a topper – imagine my delight when I found out they were Star Wars toppers!! (Not the easiest to stand up, but a few cocktail sticks and a nerdy husband later and we got them sorted!!) As you can see, you can go as simple, delicate, colourful or novelty as you like with your wedding cake – don’t try to please anyone else with fillings or designs – just have a look around and if you want a bold statement piece in a random flavour with an unconventional topper go for it!! 
This fruit flag cake was actually for a belated wedding! It was designed by a friend of the couple – brought to us on an A4 piece of paper, so the edges of the cake were plain white with a dark green bow. I’m struggling to remember what country this flag is for! Flag cakes can be done for any occasion! If you’re going on holiday somewhere, or got engaged abroad, a flag might be a cute option!
This simple 3 tier wedding cake has a simple gold band and hearts of different sizes cascading down the front. The real detail is the edible cake topper – a groom lifting the bride, while their dog chews on her dress! If you send us photos via email, or bring them into the shop – we can get as much detail as possible into your wedding dress, hairstyles, pets etc.
This fairly simple 2 tier wedding cake has a simple band of ribbon and a simple spray of edible flowers. The real detail is the sugar paste topper, which we hand made to match the bride and groom. They brought us lots of photos of their outfits, and I know that they were really happy that we got the models so accurate! We also made a little ginger cat (their pride and joy!) to sit with them!
The groom is a dairy farmer, and according to the bride, loves his cows so much she feels left out! So we put the edible cow on top of the cake with him, and the disgruntled bride on the bottom tier! We covered the white cakes in a cow print to tie it all in. We do all types of cakes, from simple and traditional right through to novelty and fun! We make all our own toppers and do everything ourselves – so tell us what you’d like and we’ll make it to your specifications!
