pink africa

Oakfield Farm, a wedding and conference venue of note just outside Johannesburg, hosted its annual Bridal Expo over the weekend of 22-23 January 2011. My colleague TJ Moore set up a richly decorated stand there for his company Chantek Floral Design, and I provided him with several cakes which elaborated on the themes he put on display there.

The delicate-pink cake is studded with marguerite daisies of the same colour with bling beads for the flower centres and edged with black peter-sham ribbons. It is draped with a beaded Zulu shawl, and is replete with a carved wood couple. A grand silver cake plate carries this voluptuous cake which is ideal for a large wedding party. 

white simplicity

This classic, three tier, white cake edged with ice white satin ribbons holding a posy of purity roses, contrasted with the grey-blue thistle of eryngiums and a few sprigs of gypsophilla, is perfectly elegant for an intimate engagement party or a small stylish breakfast wedding. It is placed on a simple white porcelain stand.

hi and welcome to our new blog site.  we specialise in beautiful custom made cakes for all occasions.

This square, three tier cake has two layers of fruit cake and one layer of gluten-free chocolate cake. Wayne du Toit the groom is gluten intolerant and Sandi his bride insisted that one of the cakes be gluten-free. After all cutting the cake was their first act together and what was the point if Wayne couldn’t eat his cake? I did panic when the cake was placed in the open veld, but the cabbage-like Esperenza roses, which made for a perfect block and the pale pink daisies, held up their heads very well, undeterred by the Magaliesburg sun.
