South Wales, UK

Stylish, nature-inspired wedding cakes for modern couples like you.

 

For those who value beauty, detail, and unforgettable flavour.

Your day feels effortless — relaxed, naturally beautiful, and full of quiet style.

You’ve got an eye for the little things — sleek finishes, thoughtful details, that perfect touch of elegance.

 

There’s just something about being surrounded by flowers. It lifts you up, makes you smile without even trying.

 

That’s the vibe you want on your wedding day — effortless beauty, genuine joy, and a feeling that stays with you.

Your wedding cake should reflect that same feeling — thoughtful, graceful, and unforgettable. Think:

  • Clean, crisp edges that reveal soft, delicate sponge inside
  • Subtle textures and refined details that turn your cake into a piece of art
  • Handcrafted sugar flowers that look freshly picked — and last as keepsakes
  • Flavours that delight, with every bite as good as the last

I’m here to bring that vision to life — with care, creativity, and attention to every detail.

Hello I’m Alexandra,

I’ve always loved cake — and the beauty of flowers, nature, and the quiet magic they bring to a moment.

 

Now, I get to bring all of that together to create something truly special for couples like you.

 

I work with people who care about the details, who want their wedding to feel personal, thoughtful, and full of joy. When you describe your day, I can already picture it — the emotion, the atmosphere, the happiness — and I genuinely want to help make that vision real.

 

I know wedding planning can feel a little overwhelming (I’ve been there too). But your cake? That part should feel exciting — and totally stress-free.

 

My job is to make it easy, enjoyable, and beautifully you.

FAQ

Some frequently asked questions and answers

The most common way to serve wedding cakes is as finger portions (1×1 inch slices by approx. 5 inches tall) in the evening buffet. In this case I suggest catering for 75% to 80% of your total guest numbers for the evening. Have a look at the portion guide for some guidance.

If you’d like to serve the wedding cake as the main dessert at the wedding breakfast, I suggest dessert portions (2 x 1 inch slices by approx. 5 inches tall) – so you’ll need approximately double the finger portions (so twice the cake size) shown in the portion guide and I can advise you on this.

I am based in Ton Pentre in the the Rhondda Valley and I deliver across South Wales and beyond.  Please tell me your wedding venue when you enquire here.

Yes, this is part of my service. As your cake is very delicate and requires careful handling (and often stacking on site), I prefer to deliver your cake and set it up at your wedding venue for you.  The prices in this starting price guide include local delivery from postcode CF41 7HQ.  I will include delivery and set up to your wedding venue in any quotations I give you.

Yes, this is an essential part of my wedding cake design service.  Once you have paid your £100 booking fee to save your date, I will invite you to an in-person tasting and design consultation at my home design studio where we’ll design your wedding cake together.

 

There is an option to book a tasting and consultation meeting for a small fee before you book your date.  This is then deducted from the price of your wedding cake once you book your cake with me – fill in the contact form to request this.

 

I’ll always ask you to book a free-no obligation zoom call beforehand to chat about your cake.

Yes! I’ll always ask you to book a free-no obligation zoom call when you first enquire to chat about your wedding cake dreams.

 

During this call, we’ll talk more about your ideas, pricing, flavours, how much cake you need, how the ordering and design process works, I can show you some display cakes in different sizes/designs, and you can ask me any questions.

 

I’ll then follow up with a personalised proposal for you to review before you book.

 

Check my availiability here to get started!

Yes, although an in-person tasting and design consultation meeting is held once you have paid your £100 booking fee to save your date, you can order a one-off taster box at any time for a (non-refundable) small fee.

 

I’m still working on getting a shop page set up on this website for ordering taster boxes online.  In the meantime you can request this via my contact form.

You can choose a different flavour for each tier

I am not currently taking on any new custom orders for other cakes (birthdays and other celebration cakes). My new online shop for these type of cakes will be ready in late 2025.
