Choosing the right wedding cake
At Truly Scrumptious Designer Cakes we fully understand the
importance of choosing the right wedding cake.
No matter how well planned and intentioned there are few brides
who don't have second thoughts about something they have
selected for their special day. The wedding cake is no different
especially when there are so many styles available. Some of the
easier questions are; should it be round or square? White or
ivory? Sponge, fruit, chocolate, carrot or even lemon cake
filling. Or can we have a different filling on each layer?
Having either seen something in a magazine or on a website some
brides have a clear idea of the cake they'd like. In many
respects they're the lucky ones. For most it involves a lot of
head scratching, deep thought and in some cases sleep-ness
nights. At Truly Scrumptious Designer Cakes we have a team of
experienced designers who thrive on getting that special design
that will give that special 'wow' factor and put your mind at
ease.
We know how important it is to get it right. This is why we
encourage the bride to make an appointment with one of designers
to discuss ideas and taste the cake. In the shop we have a large
selection of wedding cakes on display with a larger selection
available to view through our database, which should hopefully
plant some design ideas. Even if it doesn't, our team excel at
being able to design bespoke cakes and thrives on the challenge.
Choosing the right filling
How the cake tastes is arguably what it's all about. There can
be nothing more disappointing than to have guests complain to
the wedding party that "the cake was too dry" or "too
'anything'". We also understand that it's not only the design
that's to be superb the cake must taste delicious too. We tried
a number of recipes and suppliers before arriving at our chosen
list of available fillings, which we are happy to put our name
to.
With a wide selection of fillings available you can choose from
fruit, chocolate, sponge, lemon, toffee and carrot (not suitable
for all cake designs) and many more. Many are now moving away
from the tradition of fruit cake with most are finding that
sponge and chocolate are the favourites and are seldom left with
much to take home.
Choosing the right design
There are so many designs available it can be quite mind blowing
to try and select the right one first time. Our design team are
experienced in being able to take your ideas and transform them
into a design that will compliment the wedding. We have made a
range of traditional cakes, but at Truly Scrumptious we are best
know for our award winning contemporary designs. Quite often
these days we're being asked for themed cakes. These can range
from a 3 tier snow boarder's wedding cake to a model of the
wedding car - and almost anything else in between. Often they
become a talking point at the wedding!
Not all our contemporary designs are as far removed from
tradition. We have a number of neat square, round and petal
contemporary cakes decorated in anything from sea holly to sugar
calla lilies. All our designs are easily tweaked to accommodate
the theme of the wedding.
We are confident that the combination of design excellence,
delicious taste and our commitment to customer satisfaction is a
winning one. One which has been the bedrock for growing our
business at such a rate that we were nominated in 2005 for the
shortlist of 3 finalists for the prestigious Voted Outstanding
Wedding Supplier in only our 3rd year of trading. Please get in
