All cupcakes look beautiful but if you want to make a big impression I can now offer you special wrappers to cosset those cakes so they are even more special. Of course Happy Birthday is the most often requested message, so here is a picture of what they look like on and off the cake.
So you might want to order these to go with your first order of cupcakes and then keep them safe to wrap around your next box - at £4 they don't cost a lot to make your cakes that little bit different.

Once bitten forever smitten - Cartoons

At first you may be surprised but the inspiration for cake designs comes from so many different places, fabric and lace often inspire me for icing shape and colour combinations, a visit to Buckingham Palace inspired a Crystal Wedding Cake Design  and if you need something different why not a cartoon character?
This Jessica rabbit design was a perfect birthday gift for Redhead from her husband. And this Pink Panther design was a play on the Hollywood bursting out of a birthday cake from those cheesy old Black and White movies...

So if you have a difficult present think about their favourite cartoon character and maybe we can make a sophisticated cake inspired by a cartoon.

Once bitten forever smitten - Christening Cakes

Getting a new baby christened is a wonderful celebration and its been a great pleasure to make this cake for my neighbours with findant building blocks spelling out the name - don't they look good enough to eat?


This was a luscious lemon cake with lemon buttercream - the tang of the lemon perfectly complementing the sweet fondant icing.This cake was the 'main feature' at a Christening tea party making the other tea cakes helslf with a bit of help from Grandma and M&S!

If you aren't a natural baker you can always order extra cakes for those special tea parties from DeliCakes as well as the main Celebration Cake - just discuss your specific requirements with Janet  text 07714286911 or email janet@weddingdelicakes.co.uk

Once bitten forever smitten - 3D Cakes

Everything is in 3D now and DeliCakes can make you a cake that is right on trend. Admitedly most 3D cakes are best with a kids theme - here are two I have made, Barbie for the princesses and a Dalek for the hereos.




But these cakes don't cut so easily into portions for party bags - so if you go for a 3D feature cake think about having a cutting cake for their friends to take home or have some matching cookies made up for the party bags. For lots more ideas take a look at my website
or email me direct for a quote janet@weddingdelicakes.co.uk - for fancy cakes its best to plan ahead and give me 2 weeks notice.
Best wishes, Janet

Once bitten forever smitten - Wedding Favours & Cookies

I've had a great idea this week regarding cookies and wedding favours - use them instead of cupcakes to complement or provide enough portions to your feature cake.
Here are some funky black labrador dog name favours I was inspired to make when I read an article saying that people want to include their pets in the wedding!. In cellophane bags these would make great place names and wedding favours combined.
Fondant covered Vanilla Cookies with Royal IcingLabrador      

Here are some more traditional  wedding favours decorated with a selection of wedding day iconic themes - cake, flowers, confetti, dress, DJ, champagne glass, music.
If you need more portions of cake for any celebration wedding, birthday or christening - especially if you have a lot of chilren coming - consider having hand made personalised cookies for the kids - less messy than cake too.
Cookies shaped and iced to your specific requirements can be ordered direct from www.weddingdelicakes.co.uk
or by calling Janet on 01732 843518 and now you can text orders to 07714 286911

Once bitten forever smitten - A hug in a mouthfull

It's that time of year when brave mothers wave goodbye to their babies - they may be 6'2" and utterly gorgeous but its time for Uni the big wide world to claim them and your role is reduced to sending them off with a trunk of clean clothes and a credit bank balance. Resist texting every day or a friendly poke on facebook but send them off with a treat to remind them of home. Chocolate Brownies.

Every teenager loves them, rich and satisfying - ideal to share with new friends, fills them up when freshers week is a mostly liquid diet and most of all a big hug in a mouthfull.

If you're not the baking type I can make you personalised brownies or why not send them off with a selection box of individually wrapped brownies in 3 flavours - Classic with walnuts, fruit and nut with juicy raisins or  cherry treats. Order on line at www.weddingdelicakes.co.uk  if you want them posted direct as an arrival gift or just ring me 01732 843518 for collection orders.
Best wishes
Janet
