Questions
The things couples ask most. Anything else, just ask.
Do you deliver the cake?
Yes. I deliver and set up all my wedding cakes myself. The price depends on travel distance, and delivery is limited to about 1 hour 30 minutes of travel from Kilcock.
How do I book my date?
Once you are happy with your order, a deposit of €100 secures your booking.
Can I taste the cakes first?
Yes, and it is free. Get in touch to arrange a tasting box by appointment, and we can talk about flavours, design, sizes and prices.

Belgian milk or dark chocolate, rich fruit cake with Irish whiskey, red velvet, lemon zest with elderberry buttercream, passion fruit, chocolate truffle with orange and Victoria sponge with strawberry or raspberry jam. Other flavours are available on request.
Do you make gluten-free cakes?
Yes, all my cakes are available gluten free.
Can you use flowers from my florist?
Yes. I can use flowers from your florist, and I install them myself about two hours before the call for dinner.
Can you design something unique for us?
I would be pleased to design a cake that reflects your personality. Bring your ideas, photos and colours to the tasting.
Do you make wedding cakes for weddings in Dublin?
Yes. Kilcock is about 40 minutes from Dublin city, and I deliver and set up wedding cakes at venues all over Dublin, Kildare, Meath, Wicklow, Westmeath, Offaly, Laois and Louth, up to about 1 hour 30 minutes from my kitchen.
What is a croquembouche?
A croquembouche is the traditional French wedding cake: a tall cone of choux pastry profiteroles filled with cream and held together with crisp caramel, often decorated with sugared almonds, macarons or flowers. I make them in Kilcock to order, in the size you need for your guests.
How much does a wedding cake cost?
Every design on my price list shows a guide price. Most wedding cakes are between €380 and €1,690, depending on size, number of guests and decoration. Delivery is priced by distance. Get in touch with your date and guest numbers and I will give you an exact price.
Is your kitchen registered?
French Wedding Cakes is a registered business. My work is recorded and monitored by a HACCP system in line with the Health Board, to guarantee good hygiene.
