Christening Cakes

Like traditional Wedding Cakes, A Christening Cake was usually a fruit cake base, topped with marzipan, white icing, trimmed with Pink or Blue, Then a Stork, a Baby or Icing Flowers as a topper.
However, the modern Christening Cake, calls for a contemporary twist on the traditional cake. The fruit cake base is now more likely to be a sponge, white is often replaced with colour(s) and cute cake topper.

• What do you want your cake to look like?

Fruit Cake isn’t so popular now, so why not try vanilla, chocolate, chocolate & orange, or lemon sponge? or any other flavour you fancy. If the cake is multi-tiered, you could even have them all!
• Size
How many guests are you catering for?
The size of the cake may affect the design you can have.
1 large cake or maybe a 2 or 3 tier cake.
We are often asked how many portions can be obtained from each cake. Obviously, it depends on the person wielding the knife, but we offer the following Portion and Cake Advice guidelines.
• Does your venue cut the cake?
Some new parents may choose to cut the cake together, or you may wish to leave this up to the venue staff. Remember to check with your venue to see if cake cutting & serving is inclusive in the package.
