When your wedding cake starts with a beautiful glass charger… 🤍
For her wedding to Mark , Giulia wanted a cake that reflected her Italian heritage, with the wider, shallower tiers of a more traditional Italian-style wedding cake.
But it was the styling of their day that really inspired the detail.
The glass chargers from were just exquisite with an ornate beaded pattern, so I recreated it across the cake by hand piping each tier in royal icing.
And then there were the flowers… Giulia sent me an image of a wonderfully relaxed bouquet that she loved, which became the inspiration for the sugar and wafer paper flowers and foliage I created for the cake.
We explored three initial cake design concepts before we arrived at THE ONE, bringing all those little elements together into something completely personal to Giulia and Mark.
And I have to give a special mention to Giulia’s (now) sisters-in-law, Jo and Tracey, who headed up so much of the organisation. They were absolute superstars and such lovely ladies to work with.
From a glass charger and a favourite bouquet to a completely bespoke wedding cake — that's the magic of cake design!
