Breathtaking, innovative and highly original, here are a selection of some of the more unusual and inspirational cakes designed and created for my clients...

The architecture of Venice is the inspiration for every aspect of the stunning cake, with intricate outlines of famous buildings encircling the central candle. Both candle and cake are garlanded with 'cake jewellery' which Elizabeth designed and created for this highly individual cake.

What could be more romantic than a cake inspired by your very special place!

This joyous four-tier wedding cake was inspired by orange gerberas - the bride and groom's favourite flower.

The decoration on this cake is hand-modelled in sugar to create a slightly raised, richly coloured 'picture' - a contemporary and innovative alternative to sugar flowers.

This technique was used to decorate Elizabeth's international medal-winning Blue Iris wedding cake.

Delicate and sparkly, this highly inovative wedding cake has been featured in several wedding magazines.

Elizabeth can create 'cake jewellery' inspried by your headdress, jewellery or gown.

For more information, please see the Cake Jewellery page.

Inspired by Klimt's famous painting "The Kiss", this cake is decorated using real gold leaf and intricate detailing.

If you have a favourite picture, why not consider using it as inspiration for your cake...

Here, sugar orchids, bear grass and free-style piping are combined to create a clean, contemporary wedding cake.

Almost all flowers can be created from sugar, and Elizabeth's aim is to make them as life-like as possible. Often working with a fresh flower to refer to, each sugar petal is shaped and then painted by hand - a miniature works of art!

Though fragile, if stored correctly these flowers can last a very long time.

Romantic, pretty and feminine, this stunning cake takes traditional skills of Royal icing and gives them a contemporary twist.

Inspired by a beautiful bridal gown which had a layered skirt and lovely hand-embroidered roses on the bodice, this cake would look particularly lovely at a reception in a country setting.
