Carolyn + Ben 🤍

A cake inspired by the places they’ve travelled together.

Carolyn and Ben’s wedding at Glencruitten House brought together details inspired by the countries they’d visited as a couple. They wanted their cake to carry that same personal story, while still feeling like a piece of design in its own right.

Each tier was carefully considered, with colours, patterns and textures drawing inspiration from different places. The design culminated in a globe held between two hands, a meaningful final detail that brought everything together.

I love working with couples to take the things that matter to them and translate them into something unexpected, personal and entirely their own.

Planning a wedding with a story of your own to tell? I’d love to hear about it 🤍

Some of the most meaningful details in a wedding cake are the ones that might not be obvious at first glance 🤍

With this design, the textures move through the tiers, creating a sense of movement and connection. Inspired by the landscape of Skye, they bring something of the island into the cake, while the delicate wafer-paper flowers add another layer of texture and contrast.

Every detail was considered, with the design carrying meaning beyond what you can see.

I love that cake can hold so much more than a colour palette or a collection of ideas. It can reflect a place, a story and the things that matter most to the people at the centre of it 🤍

The bit you don’t see.

The tiny details, the adjustments, the moments where I’m standing back and looking at something before deciding what it needs next.

A wedding cake might look finished when you see it on the day, but there’s a lot of thought that happens before I get there.

And honestly, this is one of my favourite parts; taking an idea and slowly watching it become something real.

I’m very happy to be here again 🤍

Scotland finalist for the 2027 The Wedding Industry Awards Wedding Industry Awards.

I’m incredibly grateful to every couple who took the time to vote for me. Being recognised by the people I’ve had the privilege of creating for means so much, and I genuinely wouldn’t be here without you.

Now, let’s hope I can bring that 👑 home at the regionals and nationals this year 🔥

Callum + Sarah 🤍

I loved creating this cake.

Callum and Sarah chose navy and purple for their wedding, and those colours became the starting point for their cake.

The deep navy tiers were layered with fractured gold, texture and delicate lilac wafer paper. I wanted the cake to have a real sense of movement, while still feeling quite sculptural and considered.

And then there was the setting at Daviot Steading. The stone walls, warm wood and darker surroundings worked so naturally with the colours of the cake that it felt completely at home there.

I think that’s one of my favourite parts of creating wedding cakes; seeing something that started as a sketch and a collection of ideas finally sitting in the place it was designed for, on the day it was made for.

Callum and Sarah, thank you for trusting me to bring this to life 🤍

A little more about the woman behind Wilde 🤍

I’m Laura, the woman behind Wilde Cake Studio.

I live and work on the Isle of Skye, and this place has a huge influence on what I create. The landscape, the colours, the textures, the weather, the sea, the wild flowers, they all find their way into my work in one way or another.

But ultimately, I do what I do because I love being part of such a significant moment in my people’s lives.

I love taking something that has been felt and seen here on Skye and translating it into something truly unique for my couples, something that belongs to their day, but has a little piece of this place within it.

And then there’s everything that happens in between. The sketching, baking, sculpting, painting, problem-solving and all the tiny details that go into making the finished cake feel like theirs.

That’s what Wilde is to me.

Eloping on Skye?

Your cake doesn’t have to follow the rules of a traditional wedding cake.

Maybe it’s inspired by the landscape you’ve travelled here for. Maybe there’s a favourite flower, a colour you love, something you found on your travels, or simply an idea you can’t quite put into words yet.

That’s where I come in.

We’ll talk about your plans, your place, the things you’re drawn to and how you want your day to feel, then I’ll bring all of that into your cake.

Whether you’re exchanging vows on a mountainside, beside the sea or somewhere tucked away on Skye, your cake can feel like it belongs there.

Something personal. Something unexpected. Something a little Wilde.

Planning an elopement on Skye? I’d love to hear about it 🤍

Isobel & Alexander 🤍

They wanted something autumnal and elegant, but with a wilder feel.

Burnt orange, dried florals, hand-painted details and lots of texture came together to create the design. I loved creating the torn sections through the tiers, allowing the hand-painted pattern to reveal itself as the cake moves around each tier.

The flowers brought everything together; rich autumnal tones with the unexpected little flashes of purple.

I really love this one 🤍

This is exactly why I love making cakes for elopements on Skye 🤍

Caeran + Niall

A cake made here on Skye, enjoyed here on Skye, with the landscape that brought them here in the first place.

There’s something pretty special about knowing that a cake you’ve made has become part of a day like this.

I’m endlessly fascinated by how light transforms a surface.

The same form can feel entirely different depending on where the shadows fall, what catches the light, and what is left unseen.

For me, design begins long before decoration.

It starts with atmosphere.
With movement.
With creating something that feels as though it belongs to its surroundings.

This piece was inspired by shifting light, weathered landscapes and organic forms - brought together through hand-shaped rice paper elements and layered surface work.

Not simply created to be viewed.

Created to be felt.
