Siobhan and Daz's Shimmering Shell Cupcake Cake


The brilliant Siobhan and Daz had a beautiful romantic beach wedding in Sri Lanka in July with close friends and family. On their return at the weekend they hosted a wedding party to celebrate their marriage at the lovely Bryn Garw House near Bridgend. Siobhan and Daz wanted to keep the relaxed beach theme running through their wedding party and so they opted for a tower of American style cupcakes, decorated with a touch of blue sparkle and shimmering pearlescent sugar shell decorations which were hand moulded from sugarpaste.


They opted for four different flavoured cupcakes: Lemon meringue cupcakes (lemon sponge cake filled with zingy home-made lemon curd and topped with Italian meringue), Bounty cupcakes (Belgian chocolate sponge cake filled and topped with coconut frosting), Mango Passion cupcakes (mango sponge cake filled and topped with passion fruit buttercream) and Mint Chocolate Chip (Belgian chocolate chip sponge cake filled and topped with mint buttercream). We decorated the different flavours with different shell combinations and produced a cupcake menu so guests could pick their flavour of choice! The top tier cake was Pina Colada flavour(!) a scrumptious moist coconut cake layered with pineapple buttercream. Delicious!

Siobhan and Daz are friends as well as clients so it was really lovely to be a guest at their wedding celebration! Sending them all of my best wishes for a fabulously happy life together!
