Wedding cake to top the day off with Hog Roast Redruth

Hog Roast Redruth pride themselves on their selection of wedding menu’s and services that they offer. The menu is completely tailored to the bride and grooms wishes.

One of the newest trends over the past year is having the wedding cake as their wedding breakfast dessert. It is a great way of letting the guests really experience and actually get to taste the cake. To go that extra mile, Hog Roast Redruth dress the plate. A drizzle of fresh raspberry coulis goes on the bottom of the plate and a lovely slice of wedding cake is carefully placed in the centre to allow for a variety of fresh berries to be placed at the side. Hog Roast Redruth usually goes for fresh blueberries, strawberries and raspberries which compliment most flavours. Depending on what the bride and groom request, the cake is then served with either a mascarpone whipped cream at the side or with a pouring cream. Either works splendidly with both a sponge or traditional fruit cake.

Hog Roast Redruth has had the pressure of cutting up many wedding cakes over the years, some with the most exotic and rich flavours. Catering managers favourites have been a vanilla sponge with a thin layer of white chocolate between the fondant and buttercream, black forest gateau flavoured cake, cookies and cream flavoured cake and a light fluffy lemon drizzle cake. Some newlyweds have the different layers as different flavours. The ultimate favourite however, is when the wedding cake is made of entirely cupcakes as it takes no time at all to plate up and serve… as well as being the catering managers favourite type of cake!

A wedding tradition is keeping the top layer of the cake so depending on the number of guests and how big the cake is Hog Roast Redruth always tries to keep the top layer for the bride and groom to cherish and use at a later date, some for wedding cake and coffee the following morning!
