It's All About The Taste
| Q | I really want to wow our guests with our wedding cake flavour; what combinations work well for something different but that go down a treat! |
| A | Gavin & Anita Puttick says: When it comes to creating a wedding cake flavour combination that's unique yet universally loved, we recommend a few options that always make a statement: Champagne and white chocolate – This luxurious pairing combines the subtle elegance of champagne with the creamy sweetness of white chocolate, offering a refined and indulgent flavour that's perfect for celebratory occasions. Lemon and elderflower – A light, refreshing combination with a subtle floral note, perfect for spring and summer weddings. The sweetness of elderflower pairs beautifully with tangy lemon sponge. Chocolate and orange – A rich, decadent pairing that blends the depth of dark chocolate with the brightness of orange, creating a crowd-pleasing, flavourful cake. Raspberry and white chocolate – A fruity yet indulgent combination. The sweetness of white chocolate balanced with the tang of raspberries creates a beautiful and flavourful cake that's always a hit. Carrot cake with cream cheese icing – A comforting classic with rich, spiced flavours. Paired with a smooth cream cheese frosting, it offers a moist texture and depth that your guests will love. These combinations are not only delicious but also visually stunning, making them perfect for creating a cake that's both a treat for the taste buds and the eyes! |

Something Sweet
| Q | What is your advice on the top trends to look out for in 2024? |
| A | Grace McIntyre says: I think 2024 will see a rise in wholesome, personalised weddings. Although tradition has so much value, there's nothing wrong with adding a few special touches and elements to show off your personalities. For example, chocolate brownies with your favourite toppings and a sign that says: "These are our fave toppings, if you don't like them, tough luck!" This creates a wholesome feel as your guests see the two of you shine through. I think personalised gifts will also be on the rise in 2024, with more and more couples trying to find unique ways to thank their nearest and dearest for all their help with the wedding. A personalised brownie gift box is perfect for this. Who doesn't love a good chocolate brownie, right? The thing I love most about working with couples is that every client is different, and with brownies being so versatile, I can work with them to create exactly what they want. There are no limitations or rules! |
