Waitrose Wedding Cakes ?

Options
Anyone been to a wedding who's had these or anyone seen them in "real" life?

They have some really lovely cakes on their website but I they do not have them in my local store only to order.

A friend of a friend is a wedding cake maker and has been upfront and said if she were to make a cake like the one we are looking at she would charge much more! Hence why we are looking at them before getting her to quote for us!

  • I have seen quite a few Waitrose cakes at wedding I have worked and on the whole they are to a very high standard. A baker, in general, would charge about twice!! Do you have a pic you can share? I would love to see.

    I've not seen the Waitrose "wedding" cake, but my OH had a Waitrose cake specially made for my birthday this year. It was certainly worth what he paid for it. One of the nicest cakes I've ever had.

    Salivating just thinking about it...

    Mmm, chocolate and orange....

    :D
