Believe it or not, I originally had absolutely NO plans to make my own wedding cake! 🤍🍰
As a Krispy Kreme lover, I was more than happy with the idea of having a tower of doughnuts instead! 🍩😂 But as time went on, I realised that this was probably the only time in my life I’d get the opportunity to design and create my own wedding cake… so how could I not?!
Cue my brain going into FULL design mode! 🎨✨
Both our wedding cake and our fake wedding cake went through SO many different designs. Even up until a month before the wedding, I was still going back and forth between ideas 😵💫.
For our main wedding cake, I wanted something that looked clean and simple but still had that WOW factor. After lots of deliberation, I settled on an oblong Lambeth-style fondant cake, featuring vanilla sponge filled with vanilla buttercream and raspberry jam. 🤍🍓
And honestly? I was BEYOND happy with how it turned out! 🥹✨
One of the biggest bonuses of choosing fondant was being able to get the cake finished in the week leading up to the wedding, leaving me time for some much-needed pre-wedding self-care rather than frantically decorating until the last minute! 💆🏼♀️🥂
Would I make my own wedding cake again? Absolutely…🥰
