As a first option when trying to find wedding cake makers, you could ask for recommendations from relatives, friends and acquaintances who have just recently got married.

You should also taste some of their cakes as you'll want to make sure that your cake both looks incredible and also tastes nice. Ask all of the cake makers on your list for a few samples to try, and have a friend with you for a second opinion.

The flavour of the wedding cake is another detail you will need to decide, options might be vanilla, chocolate, banana and walnut, almond, white chocolate and raspberry, champagne, apple, lemon, carrot, coconut and red velvet.
