Surprise Birthday Cake


This cake was ordered as a birthday surprise for Tracey, by her Mum Linda, for her 50th birthday party. The cake featured piped pearls, sugar roses, calla lilies and hydrangea flowers. 

I received some really lovely messages from Tracey and Linda after the party!

"A massive great big thank you for my stunning birthday cake it took my breath away. Only problem is I now don't want to cut it ! Feel very privileged to have had a cake made by sugar ruffles........" Tracey

"Tracy, was speechless when she saw her cake, she cried! Thank you so much for creating this beautiful cake for my daughters 50th Birthday, we absolutely love it, so many people have commented. Now all we have to do is get Tracy to cut into it as we are dying to taste it!" Linda

Blue and silver wedding cake

A gorgeous blue and silver colour scheme was chosen for Megan and Rob's wedding at Low Wood Bay Resort and Spa.  I loved the pretty pale blue and white sugar flowers combined with the silver leaf and silver geometric details on their cake.

Cascading Sugar Roses and Petal Ruffles

Todays Sugar Flower Sunday is all about sugar roses. I love the simplicity and elegance of a wedding cake with only sugar roses. It has a really modern yet timeless look. The sugar roses on this cake were made to match the roses in bride, Beverley's fresh flower bouquet. A gorgeous colour palette of pinks, purples and ivory sugar roses cascaded down the top two tiers of the cake.  The pretty ruffles on the bottom tier were created using one of my favourite techniques- Petal Ruffles. I have a tutorial for this technique in my dove grey wedding cake tutorial in my online shop  here    Don't forget to sign up for out mailing list while you are over there, I'll be sending out some discount codes very soon.  Here is a closer look at the different colours of the sugar roses in some close up shots. Which is your favourite? I loved the deeper pink shade!

Amnesia Cascade Wedding Cake

Here is a wedding cake we created last year for a beautiful vintage themed wedding at Storrs Hall. A beautiful 5-tier wedding cake with lace trim and cascading amnesia sugar roses and gypsophila, delivered and set up at Storrs Hall, Winderemere and finished with fresh flowers around the bottom of the cake by Brakens of Bowness.  The flavours included  rich fruit cake,  chocolate orange truffle,  white chocolate and passionfruit,  chocolate  and vanilla. It looked lovely set up in the rotunda at  Storrs  Hall.  Here are the sugar roses in progress, before being dusted to create the beautiful vintage edges that make amnesia roses so popular for vintage themed weddings.  And then after dusting along with the gypsophilla sugar flowers. You can find a tutorial for our sugar roses in our online shop.
