Wedding Cake Design Experience
Designed around you, from first conversation to final slice
At Bluebell Kitchen, we offer a wedding cake design experience that’s centred around you. We take the time to understand your ideas, guide you through the decisions that matter and design a cake that feels beautiful from every angle. Whether this might be visually, emotionally or your flavour.
We don’t start with templates or trends. We start with you.
We work with couples across Kent, London, Sussex and Surrey who want something personal, elegant and genuinely delicious. Your venue, your style and the atmosphere you’re creating all inform the design we work together on to create. Our role is to listen carefully, offer gentle guidance and translate everything into a wedding cake design that feels an integral part of your day.
Your Wedding Cake Design Experience
Step 1
Start the Conversation
Let’s talk about your ideas and venue, so we can shape a design that feels right for you. You don’t need to know your whole cake vision before enquiring. A date, venue and approximate guest count is all we need to begin.
If you’d rather taste some cake before booking your consultation, we’re always happy to arrange a tasting first. Why not order a trio of Mini Cake Tasting Jars of Delight of your favourite flavours for £27.50.
Step 2
Relaxed Consultation
& Proposal
Join us for a friendly and relaxed chat either in person at our Maidstone studio in Kent or via a video call. It’s a chance to get to know you, your early wedding plans and what you’re naturally drawn to. There’s no pressure to have everything decided. Most couples find it useful just to talk through what they love.
After our conversation we’ll prepare your wedding cake proposal, showing how your cake might look and including a detailed price breakdown. If everything feels good to you, we ask for a non-refundable booking fee of £200.00 to secure your date.
Step 3
Taste, Refine and Final Details
Now comes the delicious part. Planning can feel busy at times, so this is simply about enjoying the creative side at your pace.
Once booked, you’ll receive a complimentary tasting box with four flavours of your choice, plus a small macaron surprise. We’ll also send you a working sketch and mood board inspired by our discussions.
Around 6–8 weeks before the wedding, we’ll coordinate directly with your venue and other wedding suppliers and catch up on all the final details with you.
Step 4
Your Big Day
On your wedding day, we’ll deliver your cake, style it beautifully and ensure everything is exactly as planned. All that’s left for you to do is soak up the day and enjoy every delicious slice.
“It just fit perfectly with our flower arrangements and colour scheme and was easily the star of the show.”
“We got married on top of the Shard so the cake had to “compete” with quite the backdrop, but it beat it hands down. Communicating with Charlie and Erica was very easy … from cake-testing (best part!) to design approval to the actual cake being made in the run-up to the wedding. Everything came together beautifully.”

Wedding Cake Pricing
How much does a
wedding cake cost?
We understand pricing is an important part of planning. Every Bluebell Kitchen wedding cake design is completely bespoke, designed to suit your celebration, style and guest numbers.
Rather than asking you to decide on tier sizes straight away, we encourage you to think about the kind of celebration you’re planning and how you’d like your cake to be experienced on the day.
Wedding cake pricing is guided by three key elements: the number of portions you’d like, the complexity of the design and the level of detail involved.
This approach allows us to make cakes that feel completely personal while maintaining the high standards of expertise we’re known for.
Most couples invest between £725 – £925 for a 3 tier wedding cake serving up to 80 guests, depending on design and style.
Smaller, larger or more detailed designs are quoted individually based on portion requirements and complexity. Intricate decorations e.g. handmade sugar flowers require additional time and skill, which is reflected in the final price.
Your cake should be more than a centrepiece, it’s a shared experience, beautifully designed and deliciously memorable.
Flavour & Frosting
While design draws the eye, you want your cake flavour to be unforgettable. Our menu offers balanced, memorable flavours made with high quality ingredients, carefully tested combinations and cakes meant to be enjoyed.
Your cake is there to be shared, savoured and celebrated.
Why choose Bluebell Kitchen
I would highly recommend Bluebell Kitchen! Thank you for being part of my special day.
I would like to start by thanking both Erica and Charlie for the incredible cake they made for my wedding on the 13th of September 2024, it was beyond expectations, they truly brought the vision to life! I chose toffee apple crumble as my flavour for all 3 tiers and it tasted like nothing I have ever had before. It was incredible!

Bluebell Kitchen exceeded all expectations!!
They created the most STUNNING wedding cake we have seen and it tasted phenomenal. Their attention to detail with the sugar flowers matching our floral arrangements was truly epic and couldn’t have asked for a better wedding cake! Thank you so much!
– Khristianne and Glen
We actually didn't visit any other cake maker…when we know, we know!
As we started the search for suppliers I came across Bluebell Kitchen after searching for Macarons and it just instantly seemed like a match made in heaven. Macarons are my absolute favourite dessert so after loving our tasting box we were won over. A big thank you for our wonderful cake.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should we book our wedding cake?
We recommend securing your date around 6–9 months in advance, especially for popular summer weekends. Some couples book even earlier for peace of mind. If your wedding is sooner, do get in touch we may still be able to help.
Can we have different flavours for each tier?
Yes, and we recommend it. Multiple flavours mean more joy for your guests. If you have something special in mind, we’re always happy to explore a bespoke option.
How do we decide what size cake we need?
We usually suggest planning for around 75–80% of your guest numbers. We’ll guide you so your cake feels generous without going to waste.
Can you decorate the cake with fresh flowers?
We don’t use fresh flowers for food safety reasons. Instead, we create exquisite sugar flowers or use silk florals for a flawless, lasting finish.
Where are you based and do you deliver?
We’re based in Maidstone, Kent, and deliver across the South East, including Kent, London, Surrey and Sussex. We personally deliver and style every cake.
Do you cater for dietary requirements?
We’re happy to accommodate dietary preferences and intolerances where possible. However, as our kitchen handles gluten, nuts, milk, and eggs, we’re unable to guarantee a completely allergen-free environment or cater for severe allergies.
