Buttercream
Buttercream is the traditional finish for a reason - it is rich in taste, hugely versatile in application, and produces a warmth and texture that fondant simply cannot replicate. Made with real butter, quality sugar and natural flavourings, the buttercream I use is made to be eaten as much as admired.
Whether you want a clean, sharp-edge coat, hand-piped florals, a palette-knife texture or something more rustic, buttercream gives you the full range. It works equally well on birthday cakes and wedding cakes, and can be flavoured to complement the sponge beneath.

Techniques & Styles
From smooth and minimal to elaborate and sculptural - buttercream can achieve a surprisingly wide range of aesthetics.
Hand-piped buttercream flowers - roses, carnations, rosettes and anemones - built petal by petal. Each one is individually formed and coloured to match your brief.
A perfectly smooth, clean finish with crisp edges. Modern, architectural and incredibly versatile - works beautifully with minimal decoration or bold lettering.
Organic, tactile finishes created with palette knives or spatulas - ranging from a subtle sweep to a more pronounced, sculptural texture. Often paired with florals on delivery.
Gradient colour transitions that blend seamlessly from one shade to another, or bold colour blocking across tiers. Every shade is mixed to match your colour palette exactly.
