A freesia wedding cake makes a beautiful ode to spring for the bride who wants to celebrate the fresh, new beauty of the spring season in her choice of wedding cake design.
Hello Naomi created one our all time favourite wedding cakes in the exquisite lace design above dressed with pale green and white freesia blossoms – a study in simplicity, style and gracefulness.
The Dainty Baker also pairs sprays of freesia with lace in their wedding cake creation below with the softest of pale pink peonies adding to the pretty floral decor.
