Wedding Cakes Chesterfield

If you wish to employ the expertise of a top notch professional wedding cake maker in Chesterfield, you need to begin your search a minimum of four to six months ahead of your actual wedding day if possible. You can initially try asking friends, relatives and acquaintances that have fairly recently got married to determine which wedding cake makers they used and if they'd recommend them.

Remember to search online for local cake designers, some of them use the internet to promote their products and you will probably be able to check out a few images of wedding cakes that they've created. You shouldn't plump for the first Chesterfield cake maker that you find, it is generally best to contact at least 3 or more bakers so that you can guage their passion for the task and get an idea about their abilities from reviewing a portfolio of their cakes.

Tasting a range of cakes is also important because you want a wedding cake that both looks incredible and tastes nice. It's nice to have a second opinion, therefore take somebody along with you when you go to taste samples of their cakes. If you have not as yet decided, this might also help you make up your mind what kind of cake you would like.

You will have quite a few choices such as the composition of the cake ie cupcakes, marble cake, sponge cake, cheesecake, ganache, gateau, fruit cake, sorbet or chiffon, and the design of cake ie round, scalloped, 2 tier, heart shaped, three tier, pillow shaped, four tiered, square or single tiered.

The flavour of the cake is another detail you will need to decide, choices might be almond, vanilla, white chocolate, apple spice, coconut and lime, red velvet, champagne, banana, carrot, lemon and chocolate. Next you are able to pick a cake filling, maybe you would like chocolate mousse, white chocolate, caramel buttercream, fresh strawberries, vanilla mousse, pastry cream, lemon sorbet, chocolate banana, raspberry mousse, marshmallow fluff, chocolate ganache, Belgian chocolate, lemon curd or fresh fruit.

Wedding Cake Size - Determining just what size wedding cake you will need can be a bit baffling, though this can be easily resolved by chatting to your cake maker, who will use a convenient chart for estimating cake sizes according to various factors.
