Cake Matters with Carolyn Harvey
Engagement & Hen Night Cakes
Hen night or engagement cakes created to include your design. Just explain what you need and how many it needs to feed and we can create something to make your event stand out. Most cakes can be collected on the date required. However, for something like the peacock engagement cake this has to be set up by us to ensure no problems.Wording, colours, themes and special items can be included to suit your needs.
Ring on the mummies finger.

The proposal took place on a tropical island and they wanted this theme. The palm trees have wires in to support them but then inserted into flower pics so not touching the cakes. Banner is attached to the trees with royal icing. The models on the beach are made from modelling paste as is the shells.
3 x 11", 1 x 13", 2 x 10" on top of each other, 2 by 7" on top of each other. This engagement cake was to match the peacock theme. Each cake has a blue ribbon at the base and painted gold side design. Except the 13" which has two layers of ribbon and no gold. The top two tiers have gold cake lace blossoms and leaves. Piped initials. Sugarpaste peacock body, sugarpaste tail unwired roses in 3 colours. Gold filagree leaves also included.
Close Up of Sugarpaste peacock body, sugarpaste unwired roses combine 3 colours in each rose and gold filagree leaves make up the tail. I LOVED this cake and all of the challenges and satisfaction it brought!
