Bespoke vegan wedding cakes

All the cakes that leave our studio are unique and made especially for you. You won’t find ready-made designs here.

Your story is unique, and your wedding should be too: a reflection of your individual lives intertwining. Same goes with your cake – as a significant part of your wedding, it should echo who you are, as well as what and who you love.

Take a look at my previous work – I hope it will inspire you to have a vegan wedding cake.

PLANT-BASED PERFECTION

Vegan wedding cake is a phrase that many, many couples will never have dreamt of uttering. But vegan wedding cakes are a wonderful, contemporary, popular idea – one that more and more people are choosing. Here’s a little run-down of exactly why vegan cakes are enjoying such a “moment”.

Why have a vegan wedding cake?

  1. They’re sustainable. I’m not here to lecture anyone on plant-based eating or all the wonderful good it does for the environment, but when you cut dairy out of your wedding cake, you are joining a movement that our planet is increasingly dependent on. A little fact for you: obtaining just one litre of cow’s milk can create over three times the emissions of soya milk, and uses up much more farming land (depending on the methods used). It’s worth bearing in mind.

2. Your egg-free or dairy-free guests will be overjoyed. How many guests have replied to your RSVPs with a slightly sheepish dietary need? Quite a few, would be my conservative guess. That’s because the age of eating anything and everything is far behind us, and many, many humans find their stomachs just don’t work so well after ingesting lots of animal products. Nonetheless, there is still a bit of stigma around requesting a “special meal”, and people often feel embarrassed about being a “difficult” guest. But give all your guests a vegan wedding cake and they’ll be queuing up for seconds, embarrassment completely avoided. I also offer gluten-free, nut-free and soya-free options for those who need them.

3. They taste divineThere’s long been an inaccurate rumour floating around that vegan cakes don’t taste as nice as the real thing, and I’m on a one-woman mission to prove that this simply is not true. Tasting is believing.

4. They’re wildly popular. In my experience, more couples than ever before are requesting vegan wedding cakes in Reading and beyond. The demand is so high that a lot of my customers are not even vegan, but because no one will know the difference or miss out on anything, they go for an all-vegan cake. People are much more curious about what’s going into their food at the moment, and I, for one, am delighted. Even if you only follow a plant-based diet some of the time, the appeal of a vegan wedding cake rings true. With flavours like chocolate and salted caramel, vanilla and raspberry, lemon and lime to choose from, there’s so much to like about the idea of keeping things vegan.

None of your guests will be able to tell the difference

But you will know you haven’t compromised your values on your wedding day.
