This cake nearly broke me!
Baked and assembled in temperatures circa 30C, stacked and setup for a wedding on Saturday 11th July. (I offered up countless prayers to the baking Gods that it would hold)
I lost count of how many times I did the Baker's Fridge Hokey Cokey (you put the next cake in, take the first cake out...in...out...in...out etc.)
And then, it had to be delivered to the venue 9 miles away (that was a VERY careful drive 😆)
Recently I talked about what it means to be an artisan baker, and this cake sums it up perfectly.
I literally had two sleepless nights worrying over the weather and how I could make sure that the cake would be stable and beautiful for this couple on their big day.
I genuinely care about my cakes being perfect for my customers.
To say I was relieved that everything went well is an understatement.
Also, a big thanks to team at The Pavilion in Lutterworth who were an absolute pleasure to work with and super helpful.
Next wedding in two weeks' time ... Please, Baking Gods...please! 🙏
