Tips for reducing costs

  • If you want to reduce your decoration budget, choose a cake whose decoration is already included in the price to avoid buying additional pieces. Flowers in sugar or marzipan ribbon, some cakes are already ready to match your theme.
  • To have a 100% personal decoration, nothing better for the most creative among you than to make your wedding cake figurines. From wooden dolls, recreate your two silhouettes by adding rhinestones, sequins, fabrics, lace, and small flowers. You can also add other decorations like handmade pennants.
  • For pastry chefs at heart, you can also make your wedding cake yourself. It is ideal for small committees! You will find on YouTube several recipes to make a classic Wedding Cake, a vanilla strawberry Layer Cake, or a cake with cream puffs.
