Wedding Cakes – A Design Source is the UK’s only magazine to showcase hundreds of the latest wedding cakes from the world’s most talented cake makers each season, so you really are spoilt for choice if you’re trying to find a unique cake for the big day.
This season’s collection is divided into over a dozen versatile style sections, with everything from wintry whites to decadent chocolate, contemporary simplicity to vintage opulence and cupcakes to tall tiers.
Many budget-conscious brides consider making their own cake or asking a friend or family member to make it, so we have plenty of tips for creating a do-it-yourself cake which is sure to impress any guest. If you’re not sure where to start, you can find a selection of the best DIY decorations.
Macaroons have taken the baking world by storm, so Karen Taylor shows you how to use them to decorate a wedding cake. Plus Jan Clement-May reveals how to use a simple piece of kitchen equipment to stunning effect on her cameo and black lattice cake, which was inspired by a vintage cameo brooch. If you’ve chosen a vintage theme for your wedding then you can find out how to get the look.
To make a cake that’s just as striking when cut, try Edd Kimber’s delicious red velvet cake recipe. And finally, to give yourself a break from the wedding planning, there’s the chance to win a relaxing break for two people at a luxury countryside spa hotel.
