If you’re looking for a contemporary, quirky or classically elegant wedding cake then take a look at Planet Cake. Set up by Rachel a couple of years ago, this South London-based company will design your wedding cake to order, spending as much time as you require to achieve a highly personal and individual design.

Recently, I went to visit Rachel at her sun-filled studio and had a lovely morning discussing her designs and eating delicious examples of her wedding cakes. Rachel originally trained in Theatre Design and went on to work in set design and interiors for ten years, an influence which is clearly visible in her dramatic and original approach to wedding cake design.

Having always been passionate about good food from an early age (her father ran his own deli in the eighties), she started combining her two loves. Her foray into the wedding business began three years ago when she started supplying local delicatessens with cakes, which lead on to supplying regular farmers’ markets. She used and continues to use the best and freshest ingredients that she can find. At about the same time a friend of hers asked her to make and design her wedding cake and she hasn’t looked back since!

When we meet it is very clear that Rachel herself is full of energy, she rises to the challenge of any wedding cake request, and delights in receiving any quirky request. Only recently one of her brides asked (at the last minute!) if she could make a miniature of her Jack Russell dog to sit on top of the wedding cake…..! Other designs include Love Cake, White Butterfly and Katie Blossom. Alternatively you could have a tower of cupcakes or some beautifully presented boxed mini cakes.

Rachel is always happy to provide a no-obligation personal consultation, and can inspire you if you are not sure what you want, follow your instructions if you do, or you can work together to create the perfect centrepiece for your day.

Rachel delivers to London and the surrounding counties and I urge you to contact her if you are looking for someone to design a very special wedding cake.
