Food & Cake

Food: Cater Marks
Wedding Cake: The Wedding Cakery

Food was amazing, neatly and appealing layout of canapés and buffet. Everyone enjoyed the food and complimented the chef.
Cake was delicious, complimented by all. Groom is not that fond of cake, so one cake layer had a glass container filled with his favourite treat, green jelly sweets. It was a three tier cake. The entire cake was my favourite, chocolate cake. The bottom tier was solid green with a piece of silver and the top tier was marble green. The cake stood on a wine barrel within a white flowery hoola hoop.
