Here’s a little story about my love-hate relationship with influencers. Many moons ago, when we had a cake and coffee shop, in a very fancy part of town with fancy rents and bitter neighbours. We were struggling with it and we decided to drum up our marketing efforts. One of these efforts was to host a cake decorating workshop for influencers. Taught by yours truly. We had a confirmed guest list of 6 attendees. We baked 14 sponges, made 5kg of Swiss meringue buttercream, 2kg of chocolate ganache, a mountain of macarons, heaps of doughnuts. We worked late to set the shop up for the workshop. We ..read more

Alisha and Ashley's wedding festivities look so fun and fantastic that only the most fun and fantastic wedding cake would suit. The couple came to us recommended by a loyal customer and it made it all the more special. The wedding reception was at the lush countryside Manor of Groves in Hertfordshire and the grounds are breath-taking. It's got a massive, and architecturally beautiful glass conservative overlooking those glistening grounds and gazebos too!  Alisha's wedding cake was our Macaron Cascade wedding cake with three tiers of classic vanilla sponge, a colourful watercolour frost ..read more

I love it when couples get in touch saying they love our designs and would like to customise it to make it their own bespoke and unique wedding cake. Other than it being dead flattering to be told that someone loves our work, it also gives us the opportunity to think outside our Anges box and gets some of those creative juices flowing again. Like for Anouska and Jack's three-tiered London autumn wedding cake delivered to The Brewery on Chiswell Street. Now by customising and bespoke I don't mean when customers send us photos of cakes by other cake makers saying, "I love your cakes but can you ..read more

You won’t believe some of these cakes! Celebrity weddings are usually an extra affair with millions pumped into them – thrones, castles, Elton on the piano and seriously elaborate wedding cakes. Those are the kind of cake commissions we relish. A chance to flex our creative cake muscle and push some boundaries. We’ve been pondering our favourite celebrity wedding cakes – and some that we thought were more than a tad disappointing. The Best Celebrity Wedding Cakes Ever Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds When Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds got married in 2012, they went all out with the desserts. Th ..read more

I'm so excited about weddings being back in full swing. Yeah, summer was here for all of 2 days but you really don't need sun to celebrate love and romance. I don't think so anyway. I think most people would take rain over restrictions anyway. But even weddings in lockdown are particularly romantic. It's saying, "I really don't care about the fancy frills and everyone else, let's just get married". Like eloping, but a bit more convenient as it's probably a lot closer to home. Here's a lovely little two-tier macaron wedding cake we made for Svetlana and Victor. I love the pretty pink drip and ..read more

What do you think of when you hear the words 'Wedding Cake'? We’re guessing it’s an ivory tiered fruit cake, but these days wedding cakes are breaking traditions and expectations. We checked the wedding cake expectations against reality, to see just how much the cake is evolving…   Expectation: Wedding Cakes have to be fruit cake Reality: Your cake can be any flavour you wish!   Traditional wedding cakes were made from a heavy fruit cake, wrapped in marzipan and icing. Such was the nature of these cakes, that it was usual for the top tier of the wedding cake to be kept in the freezer ..read more

I’ve done some real cringe stuff in my life and I get reminders of it whenever I try to free up space in my camera reel ?? So right in the beginning when I first started a lil macaron home baking biz, before I was like famous-famous LOL, I worked with a fancy food photographer, let’s call him Pierre, to get some really fancy photos of my macs. They were styled with ridiculous props etc, food art if you may. Pierre was pretty old-school, painfully snobby and one day said, in his exaggerated French accent, “Reshmeee, there eez thees French tv company filming  and interview weeth me and I t ..read more
