Wedding Season S1: Ep2 Wedding Cake for E&T

Venue: Hautbois Hall

Nestled in the Norfolk broads Hautbois Hall is a stunning Tudor Manor house dating from 1555. This was my first visit here and I return in 2019 and beyond (yes, already booking into SS2019/20)

While Emily & Tom were getting spliced and I was dressing the cake for the after party. Our 3 tier wedding cake comprised a Chocolate Guinness Cake with cream cheese frosting, caramel cake,  salted caramel frosting and home made Cornish salted dulce du leche, along with our all time favourite lemon meringue and scratch cooked lemon-curd. Finally, decorated and completed with chocolate sails, Aunties blooms and our hand drawn, bespoke personalised sketch as a standard.  Once E &T were spliced it was time for the wedding cake to get sliced.

I love it when a family member gets involved in something for our couples wedding day. If Aunt Fanny is a dab hand at flowers and knows her daffs from her dandelions I’m all up for it, I’ll work with whatever I’m given.  Luckily Emilys Aunt was the bee’s knees at scooping some fantastic colours and textures for Emily & Toms wedding cake blooms.

(N.B: We have a raft of contacts for very talented florists to hand if it’s all going to get too much for Aunt Fan’ and her kitchen scissors.)
