Planning a wedding or civil celebration is hugely exciting, but we also understand you that you and your partner may have lots of questions! Below you’ll find answers to the questions we get asked the most about choosing and ordering a wedding cake.

How much does a Hannah Hickman wedding cake cost?

All of our wedding cakes are completely individual and a quotation will be given following your one-to-one consultation. Prices start from £600.00 with an additional delivery and set up fee. Book a one-to-one cake consultation here.

What wedding cake flavours are available?

Your wedding cake should taste as good (if not even better!), than it looks. At Hannah Hickman Creative Cake Makers, we favour the classics and have perfected our victoria sponge, chocolate cake and fruit cake recipies. Our couples love our vanilla and blackcurrant jam twist, and our lemon sponge with with lemon curd filling… but the options are endless! Contact Hannah to find out more.

When is the best time to book a personal one-to-one consultation?

Whenever you are ready! We usually see couples 18 to 6 months ahead of the big day, but subject to availability, we can see you at any point during the planning process.

What is involved with a consultation?

I offer free consultations which take place at my home or virtually via Zoom. My studio is too small for consultations so face to face appointments take place in my house. It is a great chance to meet and get to know each other whilst discussing your wedding and your wedding cake. I offer samples for you to try and provide tea and coffee along side.

If a virtual appointment is a better option for you I can also post out samples to you for £18.00 with a choice of four flavours from my cake menu.

I have a specific colour scheme – are you able to match it?

Yes! All of our cakes can be fully tailored to match your colour theme and styling – we love it when our couples have a clear vision for their big day. If you have a specific colour scheme, theme or look in mind, please bring details along to your personal one-to-one cake consultation. You will find previous examples in our inspiration gallery on on our Pinterest boards.

Do you deliver the wedding cake?

Yes. All quotations outline a delivery fee, which includes delivery to your venue and the set up of your cake, leaving you free to focus on other details ahead of your big day. Please note: Delivery costs are based on mileage. Local pick up from my home studio in Cheltenham can be organised for smaller cakes, please contact me for further delivery information.
