Our handmade 3 tier wedding fruit cake is a timeless choice for couples and families looking for a traditional centrepiece with the flexibility to make it their own. Supplied as a naked fruit cake, this set is ideal for those who want to decorate their cake personally, whether for a wedding, 50th wedding anniversary, or any special celebration.
Each cake is carefully made in small batches using our traditional boiled fruit method, creating a rich, moist texture that fruit cake lovers expect. The fruit is soaked in brandy to develop a deep, rounded flavour, although an alcohol-free optionis available on request. This makes it suitable for a wide range of occasions and dietary preferences.
Particularly popular for 50th (golden) wedding anniversary celebrations.
A Complete 3 Tier Cake Set
This listing includes a full three-tier fruit cake set, consisting of:
-
8 inch cake
-
10 inch cake
-
12 inch cake
Available in round or square, these tiers are designed to stack beautifully, giving you a classic wedding cake silhouette. Together, they provide approximately 132–156 slices, making them suitable for medium to large gatherings.
The cakes are supplied unassembled, allowing for easy transport and flexible setup. Whether you are working with a cake decorator or creating your own design at home, this format gives you complete control over the final presentation.
Designed for DIY Decoration
One of the key benefits of our cakes is that they arrive as a plain, naked fruit cake, ready for you to decorate. This makes them perfect for:
-
Adding your own marzipan and fondant finish
-
Creating a semi-naked or rustic style cake
-
Matching your wedding or anniversary theme exactly
-
Allowing a family member or friend to decorate at their own pace
This approach avoids the difficulty of trying to choose a “one-style-fits-all” design and instead gives you the freedom to create something truly personal.
