Wedding Cake Design & Tasting boxes

Let’s talk about cake

Creating your wedding cake is a special part of the journey, and it should feel enjoyable, inspiring and uniquely yours. I offer a range of consultation options to suit your schedule, from an in-person design meeting, to a video consultation or a relaxed email discussion if you prefer flexibility. However we connect, we’ll thoughtfully shape every detail to design a cake that feels perfectly suited to you and your celebration.

When to Start Designing Your Cake

To capture the feel of your wedding, I usually suggest starting the cake design once things like your colour palette, flowers, outfits and venue styling are decided. It just helps everything tie together beautifully. And if you’ve got a Pinterest board, I’d love to see it, they’re such a great way to share ideas and inspiration.

Choose Your Consultation Style

In-Person Design Consultation

Once your date is secured, you’ll be invited to a wedding cake design consultation. You’re very welcome to visit for a relaxed consultation for two, where we can chat through your plans.

It’s a lovely opportunity to explore design ideas together, share inspiration and start bringing your cake vision to life in a calm, informal setting.

During your visit you can:

  • See my workspace and cakes on display

  • Share inspiration and ideas

  • Ask as many questions as you like

  • Design your cake together in a calm, informal setting

  • *Postal tasting boxes available UK-wide

I take on a limited number of weddings each year, so availability for in-person appointments can be restricted.

Please note: I do not offer cake tastings at our consultation appointments, should you wish to sample my cakes you can do so by pre ordering one of our taster boxes, available on specific dates 2-3 times a year.

Video Design Consultation

Perfect for busy couples, those living further away, or anyone planning a Scottish wedding from abroad.

We’ll chat via video call and design your cake together just as we would in person, relaxed, friendly and completely tailored to you.

During our call:

  • We’ll chat through your inspiration and ideas together, guided by your pre-meeting design checklist and mood boards.

  • Finalise your design together

  • Ask as many questions as you like

  • Flexible appointment times

  • *Postal tasting boxes available UK-wide

  • If video isn’t convenient, we can continue via email

Virtual design via emails

If you’d prefer a more flexible approach, the entire design process can take place via email. I’ll send a short pre-meeting checklist beforehand, which I’ll use to create a personalised mood board tailored to your style.

From there, I’ll develop initial design sketches and we’ll refine them together until you’re completely happy with the final design.

Before Your Consultation

To make the most of our time together, I’ll send a simple pre-meeting checklist beforehand. Using this, I will create a personalised moodboard so we can focus on ideas that suit your style from the start.

You’re very welcome to share inspiration such as:

  • Pinterest images or photos

  • Invitations or stationery

  • Fabric swatches

  • Colour palettes

  • Floral ideas

Every detail helps shape a cake that feels uniquely yours.

After Your Consultation

Following our chat, I’ll send you a detailed design proposal including:

  • Hand-drawn design sketch (or options)

  • Personalised quote

  • Flavour details

  • Delivery information

  • Stand hire options

  • Any additional details discussed

So you can relax knowing every detail has been carefully considered.

Ideas take shape one detail at a time.

Wedding Cake Tasting Box

Should you wish to sample my cakes, you can do so by pre-ordering one of my sample boxes.

Cake tasting is available both before and after confirming your wedding cake order. While it isn’t essential, it’s something we highly recommend as part of the luxury wedding cake experience.

Each box includes

  • Six of Fay’s most popular wedding cake flavours, freshly baked from scratch and individually hand-wrapped for perfect freshness.

  • A Printed flavour menu, so you can note your favourites and begin curating your wedding cake flavours combinations.

Price

  • Sample box: £30

  • Postage: £10 (UK-wide delivery)

  • Collections: Available by arrangement

  • Box flavours are carefully selected by Fay and revealed ahead of each release.

  • Taster boxes are only available on specific dates 2-3 times a year.

In the event that you choose not to order a sample box, I want to assure you that you'll still be delighted with the flavours you decide upon for your cake. Over the years, I've perfected my recipes, ensuring that all the flavours are delicious. For example, if lemon isn't typically your preferred flavour, I'm confident that my lemon cake will pleasantly surprise you.
