Croquembouches, the traditional French wedding cakes, are now well established as an option in the UK. Made from light choux pastry and filled with crème patissiere, the individual profiteroles are held together in an impressive tower with sweet caramel. These wedding cakes must be made on the morning of the wedding, so you'll need to get your order in early. Remember too, that the humidity in a marquee can cause problems with softening caramel, so discuss this with your cake supplier. A very popular choice if there is a French connection within your bridal party and equally popular with the many other couples looking for an unusual, elegant and more interesting option to a traditional British wedding cake. Many brides serve it as one of the dessert options at their reception.
