Traditionally, wedding cake designs
are tiered white, square or round, with butter cream frosting.
At Patisserie Concerto your wedding cake design is a different
story: you can design the cake of your dreams, in any combination
of shape, style, flavour, colour and decoration. We believe
that your wedding cake design should be unique and match
your own personal style and taste, as well as the wedding
décor and colour scheme.
Deciding on the shape and size is the first step in designing
your wedding cake. Many shapes are available to enhance
and give a unique look to your cake. You can go for square,
round, hexagonal, heart shape or any other shape.
When designing your wedding cake,
choosing the filling for the cake can be tricky, as you
have to choose something that all your guests will like.
We suggest that you have the top tier of the cake as something
you and your partner like and the rest of the cake can be
something that all the guests will like (our shops always
have a large variety of cakes you can try before deciding).
If there is any other filling you would like but we don't
have ready, please ask and the chef will be more than happy
to prepare it for you.
The final touches to your wedding
cake design are decorating your wedding cake. Here,
your choices are endless. You might like to take a particular
element of the wedding décor and design the cake
around that theme. We can decorate cakes with the look of
embroidery, lace, appliqué or elegant drapes or swags.
For instance, many brides will use the lace or other details
from their wedding gown as a design for their wedding cake.
Bring in a picture of your gown and our chef will be delighted
to incorporate the lace or pearl beading detail into your
wedding cake.
Your wedding cake design might incorporate fresh or confectionary
flowers or satin ribbons that co-ordinate with the wedding
colour scheme. If you like, your wedding cake design can
be decorated to match your china patterns or a specific
theme using a painted on technique where the chef paints
designs on the cake for a truly exquisite look.
If choosing flowers for your wedding
cake design, please keep in mind that some flowers are
seasonal, so please discuss your flowers with us before
finalising your choice.
