All things cake and wonderful

Time sure does fly when you're having fun! I can't believe it's been a few weeks since my last blog. We've had quite a few enquiries, bookings and meetings with potential clients which all went well. There have also been a number of marketing opportunities which we couldn't have imagined, so it's all good. All I'm allowed to say at the moment is watch this space for an announcement in the nearest future.

We now continue with our A to Z Guide to Wedding Cakes below:

O for Order
As soon as you can, obtain a written quote on aspects of the cake design, flavour, the number of tiers, delivery costs, hire charges and other details. This will give you time to see if every requirement of yours had been noted accurately and to also raise other issues that you might have. It is also worth providing the cake maker with the name of a designated person on site who s authorised to take delivery of the cake. At Elizabeth's Emporium, we may also ask for a signature ad take a digital photo as confirmation that the cake, was delivered in great condition.

P for Price

While it is advisable to shop around for the best price in order to get value for money, you may have to pay a premium for a particular cake designer’s brand, design, experience and reliability. For brides on a budget, please do not be afraid to approach a cake maker whose work you like. A lot of charm and wanting to be a part of your special day may persuade a cake maker to work with a limited budget that will get you what you want for less money.
