A wedding cake created for a Russian couple marrying in France with a Beauty and the Beast themed wedding. Approximately 1 metre wide, designed to replicate the wedding venue, with a request that the ground floor windows lit up at night. I kept the landscaping simple to show off the details on the building.

I think making this cake took a good few years off my life!

Thanks so much! It actually drives me slightly mad looking at the photos as all I see are flaws and things I would do differently. C’est la vie though, I think that is the nature of cakes in general :) xx

Wow! Flaws? Are you kidding?!? All I can see is an AMAZING cake!!!!!

Thank you so much everyone, you are all so kind and supportive!

This cake took me 10 solid days of dawn til way beyond dusk so I have analyzed it in minute detail, over and over again, as you can imagine! I then had two stressful days of waiting to hear that it made it safely from the North west of England to the middle of France for the wedding (the chateau staff came to collect it).

Thanks so much for your awesome comments! xx
