Your Cheshire and Merseyside Wedding - March/april 2021 (Issue 56)

CAKES 45 Debbie's top tip “Book early as many 2020 couples have been forced to rearrange their weddings and spaces may be limited. Secondly, taste is paramount. Face-to-face consultations are difficult at the moment, but most companies have now adapted to provide postal samples for tasting.” “The semi-naked cake dressed in wild flowers continues to top the list of big-day bake trends.” “We’ve been lucky to have some amazing couples who’ve come to us with ideas that have allowed our creativity to shine through. If I could have free reign to design the cake of my dreams, it would be a 10-tier showstopper with sugar floristry, hand-painting and gold leaf work.” DEBBIE FENTON, LOIS’S LITTLE CAKE & CHOCOLATE COMPANY https://loislittlecakecompany.com An award-winning cake design company based in Sandbach, Cheshire, Lois’s Little Cake & Chocolate Company aims to balance unique design with delicious flavours to create the perfect wedding cakes for its couples. Debbie also works with chocolatiers from Belgium, The Netherlands and the UK stocking a wide range of luxury chocolates. “The buttercream ruffled look is also hugely popular and echoes the fabric of a wedding gown.” “Due to the pandemic, couples are considering smaller events so cupcake towers seem to be making a comeback, as do smaller bakes.”
