Showstopper & castle wedding cakes

When you want a cake that stops the room, this is where it happens. Our showstoppers are built on a grand scale: castle cakes with turrets and twin staircases, towering designs of up to 13 tiers or maybe more, illuminated separators, glowing archways, cascades of roses and golden carriages. They become the centrepiece of the reception and a highlight of your photographs.
This is a completely bespoke service and no cake is exactly the same
How it works:

These cakes are hired out. We design& make each showstopping cake to order. This can take weeks.
They are made completely as dummy tiers for a number of reasons. The weight of these cakes, even as dummy cakes, is incredibly heavy. Its not realistic to expect a sponge cake to bear the weight of such a huge cake design.

Real cakes for serving, or cutting cakes as they're also known, are provided in boxes and delivered with your showstopper.
Its very rare for us to include real cake in these designs as there are structural issues to consider & weight too. They can usually be incorporated under the largest tier though, see some of our beautiful photos for examples of this.

Each one is planned, baked and hand finished in our kitchen, then delivered and assembled at your venue by our team, so you don't have to worry about a thing.
We then return the day after your wedding and collect your dummy cakes. All real cakes are left for you to enjoy!

Grand designs like these take careful planning, and are priced individually so get in touch as early as you can to check your date. Read when to book your wedding cake.
