Amarjit from PJR takes us through what we should think about when it comes to our wedding cake and what questions to ask.
Some couples know exactly what type of wedding cake they want, how it looks, how it should taste and how much everybody is going to love it!
Even those couples have a few things to bear in mind before ordering their dream centre piece, some questions you may ask are:
How many guests are you expecting? You must tell your cake maker how many guests you will be catering for. When telling them how many, don’t forget to mention how your cake will be served, either as a main dessert or a side dessert. If it is a main dessert this means bigger portion sizes, thus more cake is needed! However if it will be served as a side dessert Asian wedding caterers serve other desserts which mean the cake portions may be a little less, hence less cake!
Thinking of eggless? Eggless cakes are very common, simply meaning no eggs were harmed in the manufacturing of your cake – also meaning the taste of your cake may be a little dry. It is not uncommon to lose moisture when using certain eggless mixes which is why it is important you TEST THE EGGLESS CAKE! Almost all cake makers offer a free consultation/testing, so take advantage and find a delicious tasting eggless cake.
Is marzipan an ingredient? Marzipan is that layer between the icing and the sponge, some love it, some hate it. It is used to keep the shape of a cake hard and solid. Try and avoid this because the main ingredient in marzipan is almonds, which will cause problems for any guests who are allergic to nuts.
Do you require a Halal wedding cake? Clients always ask – how can your cake be halal??? Well this simply means there is no animal product or bi-product used ANYWHERE in the cake. So ask your cake maker to be sure about the ingredients they use in their cake mix, the sugar paste/cream, the food colouring and even the oil they use to line their cake tins.
