So you are thinking of purchasing your cake from a supermarket? Most supermarkets do wedding cakes, but there range is limited to a basic range with very little colour options, and are sold to you by staff who do not make cakes and have no experience of cake making and what actually goes into making a cake.

The customers are presented in a very nice glossy leaflet or book though, which the big supermarket chain has spend thousands producing, but do you really get the personal touch also do not forget with the right marketing strategy and.....money thrown into producing a booklet I am sure that you can make any cake look good on paper! But will it really look as nice in practice?

Generally the cakes they produce are a lot thinner than cakes made in a bakery or the cakes we make (Wedding Cakes [http://www.leighcakes.co.uk/wedding-cakes.html?TreeId=1]) also the pillars they supply are often not the right ones which involve cutting to size, and they are defiantly no cheaper that a local cake specialist like us Leigh Cakes where the choice is endless with all the colours imaginable and made to your exact specifications, a choice of fillings and delivered to your venue!

Thinking of buying your Wedding Cake from a bakers?

Buying direct from your local baker is a good option but again choice and availability may be an issue, not many bakers employ full time decorators, and bakers often make cakes at the end of there shift or they may only have one part time cake decorator, who may take two weeks holiday, be sick or is unable to work during school holidays due commitments at home.
