The Hummingbird Cake

We are really happy to share our latest collaboration with you today..

Since running our joint competition with Anna Tyler Cakes in Perfect Wedding Magazine recently, and after the beautiful Butterfly, Heart and Cake biscuit favours that Anna designed to compliment our stationery –  we have now teamed up to create the most beautiful Hummingbird Wedding Cake. Anna will be sending some more pics shortly but until then here is a little sneek peek…..

Inspired by the laser-cut designs of our Boutique Collection and featuring our gorgeous little Hummingbird – Anna has worked her magic, and we love the results. The icing is a delicate, duck egg blue with the stem detailing in crisp white. The cake works beautifully with our lasercut Table Settings, Table Plan, menu and laser-cut Table Numbers. 

To cater for every ones tastes Anna offers a number of different flavoured sponges as well as her unique flavoured fruit cakes.

Traditional fruit cake – Rich fruit cake matured with brandy.

Chocolate and Pinenut – Rich fruit cake with the addition of dark Belgian chocolate pieces, pinenuts and Marsala soaked fruit.

Orange and Ginger – Rich fruit cake with the addition of crystallized ginger, fine orange zest and fruit soaked in Cointreau and Ginger wine.

Cherry and Pecan – Similar to a traditional fruit cake but with an extra helping of cherries and the addition of pecan nuts.

Vanilla sponge – Infused with vanilla syrup, layered with raspberry preserve and vanilla bean butter-cream.

Lemon sponge – Infused with lemon syrup, layered with luxury lemon curd (optional) and lemon buttercream.

Rich chocolate sponge – Layered with Belgian chocolate ganache.

It is possible for you to choose different flavours for multi-tiered wedding cakes, although where fruit cake is used it must always be at the bottom to support the rest of the cake.
