We are having 3 tier white sponge cake with little red sugar hearts all over and a handmade bride and groom on the top layer with gold sparklers coming out with stars :)

We are buying the cakes ready made and i will be decorating it myself as i have done some decorating in the past :)
 
My mum makes wedding cakes :) I don't think I have any pics on my laptop of ones she's made though. Only one I can find a pic of is this one, and it's been taken from an arty angle for their wedding photos so can't see it properly.

lovely cakes!!!!

i dont know why people charge so much either....i make wedding cakes n the dearest one i made was £175 i think....4 tier aswell!! i think they charge by the hour coz ALOT of time goes into cakes, people dont realise just how hard they actually are to make. but i dont charge by hour.....theyd be about £1000 if i did!!:rofl: its just a flat rate fee for time n electric for each tier, with a little more on top if it has a lot of detail.

but i agree £700 for a cake is mental!!

LOL werent we discussing this the other day!!

(P.s. Tracey (nuttyMummy) doesnt charge anywhere near enough for her cakes!!)

Gorgeous ideas for cakes girls! I am making OH's cousins wedding cake in 2011, it will be a 3 tier, 1 fruit, 1 sponge and 1 cheesecake!
No idea what it will look like yet, have about a year before I start stressing about that one!
 
andrea...cheesecake?? lol how r u guna do that?!

lovely cakes in here arent they?
im sure youll do fine with it.......duno if i'll still be here by then to see it but im sure ill catch it on facebook??

ha ha people tell me i dont charge enough all the time....but im scared of people fainting when i tell them a price :rofl:
 
I am thinking the top tier will just be a cheesecake topped with fresh fruit like an open tier. Havent given it much thought yet!

Are you leaving BnB? Yep will be stalking you and your cakes on FB for years to come!! :rofl:
 
We're just getting marks and spencer plain white wedding cake and tiering it ourselves...its all sponge too as its cheaper!

I WISH we could afford a big cake but no can do!
 
I was lucky enough to win a competition to have our wedding cake made for us. We could have anything we wanted and in the end we opted for iced cup cakes with a tier at the top. We had half with a chocolate sponge base and half with a plain victoria base. Half had red sugar rosebuds and the other half had red glitter hearts on the top with white icing.

no not leaving BnB yet....but theres probably guna b a time in the future where i wont have much time to come on, and i wont be able to keep up with threads, so will have to stick with FB!!

ive got a cake half made in the kitchen....its driving me nuts coz she wanted a camouflage effect.....its proving difficult in icing!! :rofl:
:dohh: just realized im writing this in the wedding thread instead of cake thread!!
 
LOL post your pic of your latest in the right thread woman! Or maybe there is some girls that would like a camouflage wedding cake!! :D
 
Haha, my OH is in the forces and asked if we can have a camouflage cake..... as if lol.
 
My mom is making ours for our summer wedding in July 2010. Our colors are royal purple and like sunflower yellow. So I think I want her to make a really basic white two tier cake with some of those little like icing dot type things on it. On top we are doing a mix of purple and yellow flowers.
 
lol yeah, im sure lots of people would love an army tent wedding cake!! :rofl:
 
Luckily my MIL makes wedding, birthday, anniversary cakes etc. She really is amazing, all those flowers made from icing that look real she does.

Amelia has had a pretty special birthday cake already, it was number 1 shape and then the sponge inside was layered in different colours like a rainbow (rainbow themed party).

My 21st cake was similar to this:
