Has anyone had Colin the Caterpillar cakes for their wedding cake(s)? If so, how much did it feed and how did you present it? Thank you x

Don't bother, we got him and he turned into a butterfly just before cake cutting. Waste of money he smashed a window while trying to fly away.

I looked into the actual wedding ones you get from marks and spencer, they were £50 each and each cake served 40 people x we arent doing the big wedding anymore but i would have went for these as i loved the idea ! X

I’ve been to many weddings with some crazy themes but I cant believe that using caterpillar cakes is a thing. Nothing wrong with a supermarket cake if you’re not feeding many but can’t see how caterpillar cakes would be cost effective, it’s just a Swiss roll.

I've been to many weddings where the bride and groom have spent excess of £200 plus on a cake for the bride and groom to for the traditional cutting the first slice and then everyone forgets about the cake and it doesn't get eat, such a waste of money. If you want to do Colin the caterpillar it's your wedding you go for it, it's something different and very quirky xx

I love the idea of this, the only reason we aren't is because me mum is desperate to make our cake. Go for it! Think it's fabulous xx

They are much larger than the normal cakes and should each serve 40 people.

Hahahah I genuinely mentioned this to my H2B cause who doesn’t like caterpillar cake???
Then I realised its because it’s chocolate and not traditional horrible fruit cake 🙈 so ours will be chocolate with strawberries/raspberries 😍
