Another crisp winter morning with the sun shining saw me setting up Rachel and Stephen's wedding cake at the glorious Apton Hall in Rochford Essex. They had a relaxed and informal naked wedding cake adorned with black fruits, fresh flowers to complement their theme and finished with a healthy dusting of icing sugar. 

The 4 tiers consisted of 2 rounds of traditional sponge with butter icing and raspberry jam and 2 tiers of strawberries and champagne sponge with butter icing and strawberry jam. Their florist "Out of the Earth" supplied the beautiful flowers which I then set on their cake to give a lovely softness to this rustic design.
