Bespoke cake design consultation
with Tea & cake.
Let's talk about cake! Wedding planning can be overwhelming, and if you're unsure where to start with your cake, why not join me for an informal chat over tea and sample a selection of my most popular cake flavours as we design your dream cake together.
In-Person Design Appointments; Each design appointment lasts up to an hour and focuses on your aesthetic preferences. This is an opportunity for us to dive into your wedding plans in more detail.
To ensure your cake ties in beautifully with the rest of your day, I recommend starting the design process once you have confirmed key elements such as your colour palette, dress/attire, room decor and flower choices with your florist. That way, your cake will perfectly complement your overall wedding look.
What to Expect During Your Design Appointment; During your visit, you'll have the chance to:
See my workspace.
There will be a selection of wedding cakes on display.
Ask any questions you might have.
Sample a selection of my most popular cake flavours, chosen by Fay.
Design your cake together.
Before your Bespoke design appointment, whether this is in-person, a video call or emails. I’ll send you a simple pre-meeting checklist to learn more about your plans. Using the this information, I’ll create a personalised mood board. This will allow us to have a thorough discussion about your wedding day and any specific cake design elements you're considering. On the day please feel free to share additional photos, stationery samples, or colour swatches that you'd like to use as inspiration for your cake.
After the consultation; I'll provide you with a comprehensive design proposal via email. This will include:
A quote for your cake.
A hand-drawn sketch of your design or multiple sketches to choose from.
Details on cake flavour's.
Delivery information.
Stand hire options.
Any other requirements.
