Rustic Wedding Shoot

7 Jun

MAD ABOUT CAKES had the absolute pleasure of working with a team of talented individuals on a styled rustic wedding shoot. MAD ABOUT CAKES of course supplied a two tier semi-naked cake. Layers of vanilla sponge, covered with frosting, but scrapped off just to expose areas of the cake. With beautiful flowers, we created a stunning arrangement and the cake matched the setting perfectly. Check out the shoot below plus the team of wonderful creatives!
