A Greenwich Wedding
We were commissioned by Lydia & Johann to create a beautiful centrepiece for their wedding reception on Sunday 8th August at the Painted Hall in Greenwich, London.

Lydia and Johann had ch...

Cupcakes in the Park
Whilst I do love to cupcakes, I have to be honest in saying that my real passion and forte lies in the intricate detail and precision that is required of my vintage and Victorian designs.
However, I do make lots and lots of cupcakes and was commissioned last week to make 24 cupcakes for a G&T party in London’s Hyde Park. Cheryl and Jon got married in Vegas in March but were hosting a little get together for close friends to celebrate their wedding.
Apparently Cheryl is a real vintage girl who loves classic garments, ...
