Springtime in Cheshire with Helen Eriksen Wedding & Event Design. There was a lovely spring vibe at yesterday's wedding at Colshaw Hall. Even the #weddingcake was bursting into bloom!

We hope you're enjoying the current series of #ExtremeCakeMakers and the cakes we've made so far. We love the variety of cakes we've been able to do for the show. If you've missed any of our episodes then you can catch up at https://www.channel4.com/…/extreme-cake -makers/episode-guide
Here's a recap of our cakes from the last two weeks and the episode number. We opened the series with our model of the Lutine Bell for the Lloyds of London remembrance service (episode 1) th...en we made a dramatic black wedding cake for a spectacular wedding (episode 2). As a contrast, our postmodernist stack of spheres (episode 7), didn't have any details or different textures whatsoever, then finally we made a tribute to the father of modern circus Philip Astley (episode 8).
The series continues next week and on Monday we're back on safe ground on with a classic floral wedding cake.
We then take a break and The Extreme Chocolate Makers take over but we'll be back very soon with some more cakes!

We've spent a lot of time at the beginning of 2019 working on our new collection of wedding cakes for 2019/20 and it's finally finished! The collection is called The Anarchic Garden and it's about the contrast between the craftsmanship in the architecture and decorated interiors of an imagined grand old house, untouched by time, and the garden, which was once perfectly manicured and has broken free. The collection is designed to invoke a feeling of unrestrained, passionate, non-conformist artistic freedom. Here is an early look at the details from some of the cakes...

We decided to have a move round at the studio last week because we really struggle for space, especially when all five members of the team are in. We only have a tiny kitchen and a small working area so it can be quite a challenge! We managed to make room for eight new wedding cakes for our new 2019/20 collection which are now on display at the studio and we created a more inviting consultation area for our wedding cake consultations. All in all a job well done!
Although, by Thursday there wasn't a free surface anywhere as we worked on this circus themed celebration cake for a first birthday party and the dozens of cupcakes and cake-pops that went along with it!

As a past recipient of a Baking Industry Award, I am delighted to have been invited to join the judging panel for the 2019 awards to judge the Celebration Cake Business of the year Award sponsored by Renshaw Baking.

This year’s Baking Industry Awards will be held at Royal Lancaster London on 4th September.

Since my last update, we've been doing a bit of filming for the new series of Extreme Cake Makers, we've been working on a brand new collection of cakes and last week we opened The Cake Crusaders facebook group which is a group to help cake makers who are having difficulty with the business side of their cake venture. The group is generating lots of discussion and there's already loads of useful information in there for cake business owners. If you have a cake business and would like to join the group, then click the link under our banner and please, please answer the joining questions.
We created the cake for a lovely wedding at Peckforton Castle at the weekend with quite an unusual but elegant wedding cake for our bride and groom Laura and Daniel. I have a feeling that bows are going to be big in 2019 on dresses and cakes!

We just had our daughters christening cake made by Suzanne. It was bespoke, 2 tier, Winnie the Pooh themed, and it was a perfect interpretation of what we’d asked for. It was great value considering the workmanship involved and quality and size of the cake and there was plenty to go around. It was a delightful centrepiece at the reception and everyone commented on how fabulous it looked, we even had guest who are no family asking for photos of it to keep! � I was so happy and it was such a lovely surprise to see the idea come to fruition. Suzanne is a lovely and personable lady and a pleasure to deal with, she also provided us with a non slip mat and instruction for how to transport the cake safely. I’d definitely use The Frostery again for a special occasion.

Thank you to Suzanne for a magical two days spent on the three tier watercolour cake , I got to meet some amazing people ...friendly atmosphere and Suzanne is so helpful with lots of tips , my confidence is soaring !!! Can’t wait for the next one now Adele xx

Thank you to Suzanne and her team for our wonderful wedding cake. From our initial enquiry, Suzanne couldn't do enough for us. Our wedding cake tasting was quite possibly the best lunch I have ever had!!!! Her cakes not only look fabulous but taste delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our meetings with Suzanne in her wonderful shop. Suzanne took on board exactly what we wanted and created the most stunning design. The sketch she provided is a work of art and is currently being framed to take pride of place in the kitchen. The cake was perfect and everyone commented on not only the design but the wonderful confectionery. With many thanks, Jessica and Joe

Thank you so much for our amazing wedding cake! Everyone commented on how beautiful it was. Suzanne was so creative with ideas and even listened when I was fussy saying I didn't want any flowers or pearls! Xxx

Thank you so much for our amazing wedding cake Suzanne. It was incredible and tasted gorgeous too! We loved the Man City and Man Utd badges ������

Fantastic job would highly recommend xxx

Thank you so much Suzanne, for my mum's wonderful cake, it was amazing, and very delicious too. It looked perfect with the theme we'd chosen, and looked lovely in the room. You were right about Crow Hill, a fantastic venue! She was absolutely delighted with the cake and didn't really want to cut it! Everyone admired it and I told them all about you. It's nice she has the flowers to show her friends back in Birmingham. Thanks so much, I hope we have another occasion to have to have another of your creations!



Suzanne

Thank you so much Suzanne for our AMAZING wedding cake! Everyone commented on how beautiful it was and how great it tasted. Suzanne was great at finding out exactly what we wanted and incorporated both my wedding dress and Indian outfit design into the cake. The sketch of the cake is a lovely keepsake too. Would highly recommend. Thanks again Suzanne xxxx

Thank you for the cake you made for Tracey's and my wedding, it was totally sublime and everyone commented on how beautiful it looked. We where thrilled and amazed when we finally saw it. It tasted exquisite. You helped to make our day perfect. Again, a massive thank you to the Frostery, we recommend to anyone and will be using again when we renew our vows. A very big thank you from Tracey and Gary Read xx

Thank you for such a lovely cake that you made for us for Sofia's christening everyone commented on how lovely it looked and it tasted gorgeous..would defiantly recommend! Fab job thanks

Thank you for a fantastic day's masterclass in cake decorating. I had so many 'ah ha!' moments and learnt such a lot of brilliant techniques throughout a really enjoyable day. So very delighted with the cake I brought home- I can't wait for friends birthdays to get creating! Please please run more classes in other decorating techniques or even small cakes - I'd love to come back for more!

Suzanne made our Lego Wedding cake and did a fantastic job. Me and my husband went to her shop with a vague idea of a wedding cake and Suzanne used her creativity and drew up a sketch which we were both very pleased with. We even got to sample different cakes and chose our tiers. When we saw the cake on the day it was even better than I imagined it would be. Everyone commented on how brilliant it was and it must have taken Suzanne ages to make all the Lego pieces. Would just like to say a huge thank you for making our wedding cake perfect.

Suzanne is beyond talented and has created so many beautiful, personalised cakes for various special family occasions! I can’t recommend her enough and thank you again :) xx

Suzanne did our wedding cake and it was absolutely stunning, we did not want to cut in to it! The cake looked and tasted beautiful. The attention to detail was fantastic and went down as a real hit with our guests! Thankyou so much Suzanne! We would 100% recommend!

My daughter is on honeymoon and she will want to thank Suzanne for her beautiful wedding cake when she gets back but I felt I wanted to thank you too! Our first initial appointment was at Suzanne's shop in the beautiful village of Uppermill, the cake tasting was divine and hard to choose but the fruit cake was the best I've ever tasted. For me the cake was one of my favourite things to help my daughter choose apart from the venue, so I was delighted that we were able to have the Frostery make our cake. On the day of the wedding I couldn't wait to see the cake!! And when I finally did I was amazed it was perfect, more than perfect it was everything my daughter and I had imagined and much more! I couldn't stop looking at it! And in the evening when it was cut the cake was the most delicious cake I've ever tasted, I can't stop eating the fruit cake it's had to be taken away so that there will be some left for when the newlyweds get home! Thank you so much Suzanne for making the most stunning elegant wedding cake your so talented and we are privileged to have had you make our cake and I will cherish the photograph of the cake for years to come xxx

Highly recommend! Our wedding cake was stunning. From the beginning Suzanne and her team made the whole process easy and enjoyable and the final result was even better than imagined. In addition the image of the wedding cake design is an added lovely keepsake. Massive thanks xxx

Can not wait to see my wedding cake in all it glory! The design Suzanne has done for our amazing cake is out of this world! The craftsmanship and efforts this lady and her mum and staff put in to make you feel special is lovely! Would recommend this beautiful company to anyone

Believe it or not the cakes taste even better on the inside. It's just a shame to cut into such beautiful cakes in the first place.

Beautifully crafted, artistically awesome cakes. Exquisitely flavoured and so intricately decorated. The amount of effort and precision that goes into ensuring each design is exactly what the customer imagined is incredible. We couldn't have asked for a better experience from The Frostery. Our wedding cake was nothing short of a masterpiece. We had high expectations but it was even better than we could have ever hoped for. We honestly couldn’t put down in words how much we loved it. It was breath taking; a true highlight. It made such a statement in the room – exactly what we were looking for! The tireless hours that obviously went into making it were more than evident. Suzanne really cares about creating nothing short of the cake of your dreams – she is such a perfectionist! You only have to meet her to see how passionate she is about what she does. We would recommend her over and over!

Beautiful cake, fantastic working with you! Loved it from start to finish. The cake design picture is lovely too; a beautiful keepsake. Thank you for working so closely with Jane at Flower Design. They succulents and gourds are perfect, and matched the real ones exactly!
