Croquembouche

In the words of award winning wedding planner Katrina Otter, these are ‘a croquembouche masterpiece with a twist’. We believe our chocolate dipped profiterole towers are a tastier and prettier alternative to the traditional caramel croquembouche. Perfect choux pastry, dipped in chocolate and decorated with all manner of fabulous additions from gold leaf and piped chocolate to shimmery textures and crunchy nuts. You can hire our antique sword if you want to stick with tradition and knock the top off your croquembouche, or we can add one of our wonderful cakes as a base tier for a more refined cake cutting moment.

Our recomended size croquembouche has 200 profiteroles and costs £395, plus £195 for an optional base tier cake

Croquembouche contain fresh dairy so we advise they are kept refrigerated until required for your “cutting” and consumption. This is commonplace in countries such as Italy that use fresh dairy in their cakes, and the “reveal” actually adds to the element of surprise throughout the evenings events. To achieve this, on site refrigeration is highly recommended. Alternatively we can plan delivery to coincide with your cutting. If you prefer the British tradition of displaying your “cake” throughout your reception, or your venue is more than 2 hours transport from our studio, the croquembouche can be displayed without the Creme patisserie filling, which would then be piped into the profiteroles by your catering team as they dismantle it for consumption. We can also provide this service and return to your venue in the evening, at a cost of £45 plus 50p per mile for the round trip.
