Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton have chosen Leicestershire-based cake designer Fiona Cairns to create that all-important cake for their big day on 29th April!
Fiona has been in business for over 25 years and was specially selected by Prince William and Miss Catherine Middleton for her creative style and traditional British ingredients. The business was started on Fiona's kitchen table and has since expanded to a state of the art bakery in the heart of the English countryside.
The wedding cake will be a multi-tiered traditional fruit cake, decorated with beautiful cream and white icing. The decorations will have a strong British floral theme created using elements of the Joseph Lambeth technique. This technique is used by chefs to create 3D scrollwork, leaves and flowers for an elegant finish.
In addition to the wedding cake, the couple have asked McVitie's Cake Company to create a chocolate biscuit cake for the reception at Buckingham Palace. The cake was specially requested by Prince William and will be made using a traditional Royal Family recipe.
