Testimonial:

My second online workshop with Shona. I've made chocolates at home before but am self taught. Shona has a wealth of knowledge and delivers the lessons at a great place to allow for understanding the processes without feeling rushed. I feel like I've learned so much and have a bit more confidence to try other recipes at home. The end product was delicious and all of my friends who had them raved about the flavour. Highly recommend these workshops to anyone who might enjoy making their own chocolates at home.

Cake size

When determining the size of your cake you will need to consider:

which type of cake you prefer (each tier can be a different flavour if required!)
number of guests - daytime/evening
number of tiers wanted
depth of naked cake - 4 inches/10cm deep is standard for naked cakes, but often extra deep cakes or shallow cakes are required)
shape of cake - usually round for naked and semi naked cakes
at which stage the cake is served - straight after wedding meal with coffee, as a dessert, or as part of the evening buffet
portions of cake to be kept for after the wedding or sent to others

Cake Flavour

We have many options of cake flavours including:

vanilla sponge with vanilla buttercream and raspberry conserve
chocolate sponge with rich ganache and chocolate buttercream filling
caramel sponge with layers of Taystful's sea salt caramel and caramel buttercream filling
lemon sponge with double lemon filling
red velvet cake layered with cream cheese flavour frosting
white chocolate cake with ganache and vanilla buttercream
rich chocolate fudge cake with chocolate ganache and chocolate buttercream (this is only recommended for small one tier cakes as it is harder to cut neatly)
coffee (and walnut if wanted) sponge with coffee buttercream
gluten free* vanilla sponge with vanilla buttercream and raspberry conserve
gluten free* chocolate sponge with rich ganache and chocolate buttercream filling

*NB: gluten free cakes are made with gluten free ingredients, but made on premises which handle gluten. I recommend having only smaller tiers made with gluten free ingredients, not larger ones.

Other cake flavours or combinations can be arranged by special request. Bear in mind the the outer surface of the cake will be visible, so this may affect your choice of flavour.
