Wedding Cake Tasting Boxes

Planning a wedding can be a lot of work. But one task you’re guaranteed to be looking forward to is choosing your cake flavours. 

From delicate Madagascan vanilla sponge with classic raspberry jam to soft chai-spiced sponge with creamy vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream, my cake combos are sure to get your guests sneaking an extra slice.

Order Your Wedding Cake Tasting Box

Each wedding cake tasting box comes with five sponge slices plus eight fillings that complement the sponge flavours.

Tasting boxes also make great gifts for family and loved ones, so they can be part of the tasting experience.

Please note that to avoid waste, I send taster boxes three times per year via Royal Mail, around March, June, and November.

Gorgeous Cakes Inside & Out

Each standard cake tier is five inches tall, made up of four layers of sponge, and three layers of buttercream and fillings. Fondant cakes are also coated with a thin layer of ganache to achieve those super-sharp edges.

Got a mouth-watering flavour combo in mind that you don’t see on the menu? I’m always happy to work with custom flavours — get in touch with your ideas and let’s create something unique.

High-Quality, Sustainable Ingredients & Materials

High-quality ingredients are at the heart of every great bake, and I source ingredients locally whenever possible. I also make as much as I can from scratch to reduce packaging waste, including modelling chocolate and curds. 

I’m proud to say that I’ve made multiple cakes that have generated zero waste, and I love working with couples who are making their celebrations as eco-friendly as possible. I use biodegradable cake boards, boxes, and stickers for every order, and I avoid plastic storage and kitchen equipment.

I only post out tasting boxes three times per year to avoid wastage.

Cakes that Cater for Every Taste & Dietary Requirement

All of my cakes are vegetarian, and I can cater vegan and gluten-free wedding parties so everyone can enjoy a slice.

Send me a message to discuss any dietary requirements before ordering your wedding cake tasting box.

We chose to have a chocolate tier and a lemon tier and both were absolutely delicious. The cakes were moist and definitely ‘Mooreish’! We had so many wedding guests comment on how nice they were, including one of my family members who is quite a cake connoisseur! Thanks again Ruth, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
