Wedding Cakes Gravesend

Your hunt for wedding cake makers in Gravesend, Kent, should start at least 4 or 5 months prior to your planned wedding date, and possibly sooner than that if you want to use one of the really sought after bakers. You might initially try asking friends or relatives who've fairly recently got married to determine which wedding cake makers they used and if they would recommend them.

Another good method is to have a peek online, since many local cake designers post photos of wedding cakes that they've created, and use this contemporary technology to advertise their products and services. In order to give you plenty of choice, you'll want to get in touch with at least three local Gravesend cake makers, so you're able to have a peek at their portfolios of wedding cakes and get a sense of how confident they are about the project.

Bear in mind, you need your cake to taste nice as well as look good and asking all of your would be cake makers for a tasting is crucial. Ask all the bakers on your list for a few samples to try, and have someone you can trust with you to get a second opinion. You might then be ready to decide about what type of cake you would like, if you haven't already done this.

There'll be many choices to be made, like the cake design ie four tiered, round, square, heart shaped, single tiered, scalloped, 3 tiered, pillow shaped or 2 tiered, and type of cake ie gateau, fruit cake, chiffon, cupcakes, ganache, marble cake, sponge cake, sorbet or cheesecake.

Yet another consideration will be the flavour of the cake, choose between vanilla, pink champagne, carrot, banana, white chocolate and raspberry, almond, apple spice, red velvet, coconut, chocolate and lemon. Then you might pick out a filling, possibly white chocolate, lemon curd, pastry cream, strawberries and cream, chocolate mousse, vanilla mousse, buttercream, chocolate banana, German chocolate, marshmallow fluff, lemon sorbet, raspberry mousse, chocolate ganache or Bailey's Irish cream.
