Wedding Cakes Burslem

A minimum of 4-6 months prior to your special day, you'll want to start looking for wedding cake makers in Burslem, Staffordshire, and if you are planning to hire a top notch professional, maybe even earlier. If you have friends, relatives and acquaintances who have recently been wed, you can as a first option try asking them to recommend the wedding cake makers who they used.

Another great option is to have a look online, since several local cake designers post pictures of wedding cakes they've produced, and use this contemporary technology to advertise their products and services.

Having a taste of a range of cakes is also imperative because you want a cake that both looks great and tastes great. Therefore, take somebody with you, so as to have another opinion, and ask for some samples of cakes that they have made recently.

Another decision will be the flavour of the wedding cake and you could pick from vanilla, chocolate, almond, red velvet, white chocolate, champagne, apple spice, banana and walnut, lemon, carrot and coconut and lime. After that you are able to decide on the wedding cake filling, possibly pastry cream, lemon curd, white chocolate, strawberries and cream, vanilla mousse, German chocolate, chocolate banana, marshmallow fluff, buttercream, chocolate mousse, chocolate ganache, raspberry mousse, lemon sorbet or chocolate hazelnut.
