The Process
Are you looking for that showstopper wedding cake?
Would you like a cake that your guests will never forget?
Do you want your cake to taste just as good as it looks?
​
If your answer is YES then you are in the right place!
Once you have your wedding date & venue booked, this is the time I would recommend you book your wedding cake in.
​
A £100 non refundable deposit will secure your date in my diary.
Around 6-9 months before your wedding I will invite you to a design consultation and cake tasting.
​
I can absolutely provide you with a rough quote before you book. I just need to confirm the sort of designs you like to base a cost on. However do not worry if you really aren't 100% set on your design as we can work together during your design consultation.
​
You can find my starting & average prices below:
Will you deliver our cake?
Yes, I will deliver & set up your wedding cake on the morning of your wedding. You will not need to worry about a thing!
​
I cover the North West including Derbyshire & Cheshire, and super proud to be working with several beautiful venues as a preferred supplier:
Heaton House Farm, Styal Lodge, Mottram Hall, Stock Farm Barn, Merrydale Manor, Upper House Estate, Carden Park, The Stanneylands & The Buxton Crescent Hotel.
Can we sample your cake?
Absolutely yes!
I will invite you to a design consultation around 6-9 months before your wedding date where we will finalise your cake design together. I will also provide a beautifcul cake sample box. You will be able to choose 5 different flavours from the menu to try & and you will also get 2 sugar cookie favours to sample too!
How much is a wedding cake?
Every cake I create is totally bespoke & unique so there is no set cost. The final cost will include your cake size, decoration & time taken plus delivery and set up.
​
Below I have listed the starting price for each cake size plus the average investment. I hope this gives you some idea on cost. For a more accurate quote just drop me a message via email or the contact form & I will be able to provide this.
Starting Prices
Please see below for my starting prices for wedding cakes.
​
The starting prices are not the final cost, they are for a plain iced cake.
Your final cost will include your design and delivery & set up at your venue.
I have included the average cost range for each cake too.
2 Tier cakes

There are so many possibilities for your wedding cake with regards to the size, number of tiers & design. For example you may only need 100 portions but would like a super tall 5 tier cake, this is where we can use dummy tiers!

I will go through all options with you during your consultation where we design your dream cake together.

To achieve a smooth, clean & sharp finish, all my cakes are covered in a layer of dreamy white chocolate ganache & a thin layer of the finest sugarpaste.
All Cakes by Lucy cakes are baked in an environment where eggs, gluten, dairy & soya are handled.
The kitchen is a nut free environment however some ingredients may have a 'may contain' label.
