Lambeth Cakes – Vintage but Vogue

Bringing all the nostalgia feels, the Lambeth cake is having a huge retro moment – but this time, there’s a new modern twist to this old classic.

Lambeth gives you the creative freedom to decorate to the MAX with no shame!

Marvel at the marbled cakesicle!  🤩

Trending and riding high with a HUGE fan base are the mighty cakesicles. Take a look at  @sweetmammatreats super cool marbling effect using dabs of colour inside the mould!

There’s a reason why cakesicles is the trend that isn’t going anywhere, and Soraya at @sweetmammatreats is the BOSS when it comes to creating these perfect visions of joy that raise smiles of delight 🤗wherever they go!

Seductive in looks and unimaginably tasty, these little guys have got it all! With every bite, you get a delicious ‘crack’ of chocolate coating, before sinking your teeth into the soft sweetness of cake and buttercream – and you can even opt to add a slight crunch to your filling with your fave biscuits. Anyone drooling?!

The pattern and colour effect combos you can create with cakesicles are insane – especially when you look at the HUGE range of decorations and sprinkles you can go crazy with! You might even want to create your own signature design… And don’t forget the fun you can have choosing the cakesicle sticks!

Soraya at @sweetmammatreats is a class act when it comes to everything cakesicle. Her designs are mesmerising and she inspires so many of us to elevate the look in different ways.

Check out some of Soraya’s TOP TIPS:

• Chocolate, I recommend playing around and finding which brand works best for you
• Temper your chocolate, I tend to use the microwave method
• Colour mill, a must for that pop of colour
• I love to finish my cakesicles off with a dash of Faye Cahill gold dust mixed with sugar flair rejuvenator

“The classic magnum mould is my favourite – it’s the perfect shape to use if you want to pop decorative additions on top” Soraya @sweetmammatreats
