weddingcakes

Whatever your wedding theme, you'll find your dream cake in our luxurious and stylish wedding cake collection. They're all specially made to order, and will help to make your big day truly unforgettable.

Before you start browsing our collection, here are some answers to any questions you may have so that choosing the perfect cake is even easier.

How do I order my cake?

You can order online or complete the order form in the brochure and take it to the Food Information Desk at any participating M&S store. Alternatively, you can order by phone. As your cake is specially made for you, please allow 21 days (seven days for Traditional) for us to deliver it to your chosen store.

I don't need such a large cake, do you have any smaller options?

If you’re having an intimate wedding and would prefer a cake that you can tailor to suit fewer guests, our traditional wedding cakes are the ideal solution. They’re available in extra large, large and medium size, so you can mix and match the tiers or even opt for just one tier.

How do I assemble my cake?

Most of the cakes are ready to assemble, so all you need to do is place the tiers on top of each other. The Traditional wedding cake tiers come on their own individual cakeboards, and you’ll need to use pillars and dowel rods between each layer. You can buy these in selected stores - just remember to buy them when you place your order. If you opt for a mixture of fruit and sponge tiers, you will need to make sure the bottom tier is a fruit cake as a sponge won’t support the weight of a fruit cake. Watch our video for tips on assembling your cake.

How does my cake arrive, and how do I store it?

Each cake comes in a box. Simply keep the cake in its box (or boxes) somewhere dry and at room temperature. Watch our video to see how to unpack your cake.

What if I need more portions?

Our cutting cake bars are ideal. These come in a variety of flavours and each bar gives you an extra 22 portions.

Will I need to decorate my cake?

The cakes are already beautifully decorated, so all you need to do is set them on the wedding table. But it’s also easy to add a personal touch to yours. We’ve accessorised some of the cakes shown, as most can be tailored to fit the individual theme of your wedding. Please note, no accessories are included, except where stated.

How long will each cake keep?

Our luxury fruit cakes should be eaten within 14 days of collection, and the chocolate and all-butter sponge cakes should be eaten within five days of collection. None of the cakes are suitable for freezing.

What types of icing are available?

For our iced cakes you can choose from white, ivory or chocolate-flavoured icing - either milk or white chocolate icing in some cases (depending on the filling you pick). Our chocolate wedding cakes are decorated with real chocolate plaques and curls.

What kinds of cake are available?

We have a selection of fruit, all-butter sponge filled with buttercream, and chocolate filled with chocolate ganache, Some of our cakes are available in all three choices, others in just two. If you want all three varieties but just one cake our Romantic pearl cake comes with a large fruit base, an all-butter sponge middle tier, topped by a chocolate cake. Finally our all-butter sponge Traditional wedding cake comes with buttercream and raspberry jam filling.
