A stunning textured wedding cake for an atmospheric autumn wedding
at Hedingham Castle, Essex

A golden-season wedding set in the heart of the Essex countryside, surrounded by ancient stone and amber-hued leaves. Held on a crisp Saturday at Hedingham Castle, Matthew and Ashley’s celebration was romantic, atmospheric, and full of feeling. Inspired by the depth of the season, the couple embraced a palette of burnt orange and sage green, lifted with luxurious touches of gold.

THE VENUE

Hedingham Castle, Essex. Set within 160 acres of rolling countryside, this beautiful castle is steeped in romance, creating an experience of timeless grandeur.
THE CAKE

A three-tier wedding cake with a concrete style finish, a striking burnt orange centre tier (in a bespoke chocolate orange flavour), fresh florals, and delicate 24K gold leaf. Bold yet beautifully balanced.
EXTRAS

102 ombré biscuit favours doubled as table placements, echoing the wedding cake design and adding a thoughtful, personal layer for guests to enjoy and take home.

“Our wedding cake was nothing short of extraordinary. From the very first glimpse to the very last bite, it completely exceeded our expectations. Not only was it stunningly beautiful and exactly what we had envisioned, but it tasted even more incredible than it looked. Every layer was perfectly moist, flavourful, and crafted with such care and attention to detail. Our guests are still talking about how it was the best wedding cake they’ve ever had!

Hanna was truly amazing throughout the entire process. She was professional, kind, patient, and so genuinely invested in making our day special. She listened to every idea we had and brought our vision to life flawlessly. Her communication was wonderful, and she made everything feel effortless and stress-free. We are so grateful for her talent, dedication, and warmth. Choosing Hanna was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!”
