Emily's Pantry - Creative Cake Designs

Sweet Cakes and Desserts with a difference!

One of Emily's fondest childhood memories was the wonderful cakes that her Nanny Sheila used to make! Her love of cakes started from a very young age and she went on to train with Peggy Porschen and master baker and decorator Wendy Kromer.

Emily is passionate about baking using only fresh local ingredients with fantastic design and creativity. Design the cake of your dreams and Emily will deliver on taste and she promises that it will look fantastic too!

Wedding Cakes

All wedding cakes are made to order and any design from the collection can be customised to your specifications. You will generally need to allow 3-6 months for all wedding cakes, however Emily will endeavour to meet last minute requests where possible. As part of her service she will liaise with wedding planners and venues to ensure that everything runs smoothly so that your cake experience will be enjoyable and stress free.

Emily offers complimentary tasting and consultation for wedding cakes and you can sample five delicious flavour combinations from her menu. To book an appointment with Emily please contact her through her website www.emilyspantry.ie/contact.

The 2014 collection of wedding gowns brought a fresh crop of inspiration with loads of chic silhouettes, breathtaking fabrics and wonderful accessories.

There are just too many collections to highlight here but I have chosen a variety of dresses from vintage, the great Gatsby and some of the more classic collections.

One aspect that is not too often highlighted is choosing the right style of dress for your shape. I came across this useful article on Style Me Pretty that you may find helpful when choosing your wedding gown.
