I've chosen my cake(s) *flash*

Stunning

Lovely stuff!

We are having cupcakes as favours as well as out wedding cake, no idea why it just ended up that way.

Is it possible to cake wobbles? I think I am having them.

I'm picturing it all in my head and it all looks lovely! ?

Love your choice of cakes very vintage Good choice of cake flavour is Toffee? xx

I know those cupcakes aren't the exact same as you are having but ohmygosh! they are cute!

Like the pic of that second cake!!

sorry for jumping on your thread, are you having sponge and will it have marzipan as well as icing?

my cake maker says marzipan helps give a smoother base for the icing so it looks better but I HATE marzipan!!

and.. we were going to go for fruit, vanilla sponge, choc sponge, small fruit but do you think many people eat fruit cake these days?

Thanks BB i will make sure i get better pics next time she is going to do a mock up of the mini ones for me ? nom nom

Thats ok Kat, she did suggest having marzipan underneath for the same reason. But she said that if we didnt wan't that then we could have butter icing which smooths it out and makes it stick.

I like fruit but i know a lot of people dont. Also with the triple layers sponge works best so have gone for that. We can have a mix of flavours in each tier too she suggests chocolate and vanilla or chocolate orange and vanilla with a white choc buttercream! its making me hungry lol

Out of my immediate family 5 out of 8 prefer fruit cake to sponge cake Not sure if we're just a bit strange though, so maybe that doesn't help at all hehe.

Thank everyone

I can also have the table cakes in a clear box if i want but i am not sure about that i think i would rather have it stood on something but what i dont know, what do you think, any ideas?

We are having good old victoria sponge on 2 tiers and lemon sponge on the middle tier! it will look a bit like this but with our flowers and undecided about the fruit yet

That looks lovely, i hadnt thought about lemon and victoria sponge you have given me an idea as i wasnt to keen on the chocolate in the main cake, thanks

Yeah you cant really go wrong with it! i do like fruit cake but it always reminds me of christmas! and i didn't want that for a spring/summer wedding!

Love the little cupcakes, too pretty to eat, lol. Who is doing the cakes? My favorite cake lady is Lisa Notley, she is amazing.

When I see different flavours at a reception, the fruitcake seems to be the one that lingers on the plates, chocolate goes fast, then carrot. Sometimes there is a sponge with raspberry and cream icing in the middle, those go fast too. My personal favorite is lemon, with lemon cream icing, yumm.

Thanks Teri, she is a lady i met at a recent wedding fayre she has a home based comany in somerset and her work is amazing

I had already got my favours but i fell in love with the little cakes. We are also doing a very special little chocolate fudge cake for our flowergirl ( who LOVES chocolate cake ) which i know she will definately eat lol!

I think i am leaning towards lemon and victoria sponge in the main cake - i like cakes that taste fresh rather than too sweet iykwim and then for the little cakes maybe chocolate orange, carrot (my other personal fav) and white chocolate with lime.

Love the idea of lemon and victoria sponge,, never had white chocolate and lime, but that sounds really lush! So sweet about the little chocolate fudge cake for your little flowergirl,, that's the sort of thing I love,, little special details
