Every time we head over to take a sneaky peek at what Tracy James has been up to, we’re never disappointed. Her cakes are simply stunning and only seem to become more ambitious as time goes by. Instead of restricting herself to a single style, Tracy manages to remain fluid as she goes from an ornate three-tier cake adorned with huge sugar flowers to a rustic bake with wood-effect frosting, to a contemporary cake with flecks of gold and trendy geometric patterns. She’s a true cake artist if we’ve ever seen one and most definitely worth keeping your eye on.

The Sweet Stuff
There’s wedding cake that you taste once and then it’s over, then there’s wedding cake that you post on Instagram, message all your friends about and break out in total baking envy. The Sweet Stuff have planted their spatula firmly in the latter category with stylish contemporary designs that feature those trendy flecks of gold across their cream tiers with a handful of macaroons on top for good measure. Although we have to say, we’re rather taken with the rustic designs that hang from the ceiling, because that’s just how The Sweet Stuff rolls.
