Wedding cakes Questions/FAQ

When should I order my wedding cake?

We limit our work to reach the highest quality- many clients book their wedding cake about ONE YEAR before the wedding, to make sure that they can have a Jenny's Cake. We can often accommodate short-notice requests, especially If your wedding is in the winter.

Do I need to have all Fruit Cake ?

No. Many clients THINK that they do not like fruit cake, until they taste our Rich Fruit Cake! Made to our own secret recipe, our fruit cake is made around TWO MONTHS before your wedding, matured in fine french brandy to produce a smooth and mellow flavour. As the client, YOU have complete freedom to choose the cake mixtures to suit you- we do not insist on Rich Fruit, even if WE think it's delicious!

Can I have other cake, such as chocolate cake ? What flavours do you offer?

Yes. The vast majority of our cakes include a mixture of tiers. Often a three-tier cake will have Rich Fruit Cake, sponge and chocolate sponge cake. We offer the following flavours- Chocolate, Toffee Caramel, Vanilla and Lemon Drizzle.

Can I have a one-tier or two-tier cake ?

Yes. We often provide cakes for smaller weddings, and have a number of designs specifically as two-tier and single tier wedding cakes. Most designs on our website can be increased or decreased in size to suit your wedding party.

What size of cake do I need?

This depends on the number of guests attending, usually including Evening Guests.
A 'standard' three-tier round cake would provide around 130 portions, and a three-tier square cake will provide about 150 portions. Please note that this is only a broad estimate, and depends on the combination of fruit and sponge tiers.
We also offer additional Cutting Sponge cakes which are decorated in a simple way. These are kept by the hotel and added to your wedding cake for serving to your guests, and provide an economical way of catering for a larger wedding party.
