The camera never lies
















Why oh why can't I take a decent photo! This has been the bane of my life, considering how important decent photos are to my work. Anyhoo, I suppose I just have to keep on practising till I get it right. Another week of cakes, cakes and more cakes which is very good for us. Also, Elizabeth's Emporium got chosen from thousands of businesses for a pilot leadership programme sponsored by the London Development Agency. We are very grateful for the opportunity and also very excited and can't wait to get started.
As always, we continue with the A to Z of Wedding Cakes series below:
Q for Quality

You want you cake to accurately reflect your sense of style and elegance. When looking at wedding cakes, pay attention to important elements such as flavour options, and other details such as the finishing touches, how cakes are displayed and the accompanying accessories to ensure that they are what you require.

R for Reception

As the cake will take centre stage at the reception, discuss possible display areas and how the table will be dressed with your event planner or venue and cake maker. If for instance the cake will be iced entirely in butter cream for a summer wedding, it is advisable not to display the cake in a hot room or place it near a window. Also, placing the cake table next to the sound system may not be a good idea, as the vibrations could destabilise the wedding cake.
