My other friend took her communion cake back as it had hairs in it. My mum called the lady and just said we are not gettin married anymore so we coudl get money back she was really cheeky to my mum but my mum has to go up tmro. Does anyone know any sort of cheap cake makers I can go to? And we onky have like 12 days aggghhh xx

buy one from m&s or asda extra special,they do them in 3 sizes so you could easily stack them and decorate them for under £50

Try you local college and see if they have a catering department, most level 3's are really fantastic at making the cakes and i think they will only charge cost price aswell

Try a company called lawsons, there good you can pick 1, 2 or 3 teirs, chocolate, sponge or fruit or mix and match, there plain but very cheap, i think 3 teirs iced with cake stand and knife to hire included came to £85. If not M&S do wedding cakes from £35 x

M&S for us!! Fruit cake for 3 cakes is £115 without the tiers and the sponge cake is £75 for all 3 cakes without the tiers... I think there around £5 for 4. They all come on it's individual cake board aswell.
They can either come in white or ivory and you can do with them as you wish :)
Where having 2 tiers sponge cake :) xx

CommentAuthorginge23
I know cece its just wrong my mum is raging lol said she is calling enviromental health xx
CommentAuthorCeCe
...did you Mum tell her the truth? Did you get your £££ back...? If money has been handed back..I would, without ANY hesitation inform her the product she has been making on more than one occasion has been 'tainted'. I think the previous cake buyers need to speak up too...to HER as well as other potential customers!
CommentAuthorToops
Oh what a nightmare for you! Go for M&S, my H2B's brother got their wedding cake from M&S (sponge) and it was lovely, they just added some decorations, I shall add a photo to my page for you to look at.
CommentAuthorginge23
Cece she has not said yet as we want to wait to get money back 1st. My cousin took her cake back to her. She does not know that is my cousin though. Thanks toops i will have a look xx
CommentAuthorCeCe
ginge - best your Mum keeps 'it zipped' til the £££ is in her hand...and IF the cake woman kicks up a fuss re re-imbursement, then let her know the cake returner was your cousin and you are not happy buying a cake with added extras you did not order (hair).
Any further fuss..let her know you WILL be reporting her to the EH and passing onto ALL wedding suppliers you have dealt with her cakes are furry!
CommentAuthorginge23
Yes defo cece once she has the money she is going to say my mum is not the quiet type lol i can imagine what she will say. xx
CommentAuthorlittle_maus

CommentAuthorcatch
good luck with cake hunni such a shame about first one hope your mum gets your money back, l'm a bit worried now as my MOH is getting my cake made by someone she works with yikes!!!!!!!xx
CommentAuthorCeCe
Ginge..speak to the manager on duty or the manager for the bakery (at Asda) and see if they can knock you up some cupcakes for your wedding.
CommentAuthorTotally_Lee
Hey! I work at ASDA (not on the bakery I must say) but we do have some yummy cakes! (: You could do as someone mentioned before && buy the extra special cakes in the three different sizes, buy some sugar flowers, some ribbon, && some tiers && make it yourself.....or you could always do what CeCe said. Phone ASDA, explain what happened, & see if they could help you with it. I know we are normally very willing to help people out like that so you never know! All depends on your local store! Good luck! (: xxx
CommentAuthorCeCe
...act all desperate and in need of HELP..that'll do it, especially if the Manager is a bloke!
CommentAuthorginge23
