KENT'S WEDDING CAKE
EXTRAORDINAIRES
NO MATTER WHAT THEME YOU CHOOSE FOR YOUR WEDDING, AND WHAT
TRADITIONS YOU CHOOSE TO MAKE A PART OF IT, THERE IS ONE THING
THAT YOU WILL DEFINITELY NEED – THE CAKE, IN ALL ITS MOIST SPONGE
AND SMOOTH ICING GLORY.
Wedding cakes date back to medieval times, and used to be made of
wheat. They were a fertility blessing, and were ‘served’ by being thrown
at the bride once the ceremony was complete. Thankfully, the way we use
wedding cakes has changed a lot since those days! Whether you fancy a
vintage cake or a contemporary tower of confectionary, there is someone
in Kent who can help you.
