A wedding cake is a great piece to show off your wedding style and crown it, to highlight your wedding theme and colors. One of the trends of this year is a very unusual piece that may be not for everyone but it will definitely make you stand out a lot, and this is a Lambeth cake.
What Is A Lambeth Cake?
Lambeth cakes use a royal icing over-piping technique to create intricate depth using lots of layers of icing. Often referred to as ‘overpiping’, it’s easy to see why with the dramatic but elegant end results of overlapping scrolls, details and garlands. The vintage, intricate piping details are making a strong comeback. It is the perfect ‘something old’ in your wedding design. Plus, it is guaranteed to be a show stopper and conversation piece.
The Lambeth method dates back to the 1930s, named after Joseph Lambeth who was known for championing this ornate style of cake decorating, but despite the methods being almost 100 years old, today’s bakers breathe life into these old-school techniques.
