Tradition
Historically speaking in Canada we have followed British Wedding folklore until recent times. This was when fruitcake was
so popular and we had the tradition of wrapping pieces of cake for guests to take home. It was popular to save the top tier
for an anniversary or the first birthday of the oldest child. All lovely traditions, now challenged by a new generation with
new attitudes.
Today the appeal of fruitcake has diminished. The young couple planning their wedding, is more likely to purchase a cake
that will be served as dessert. 8 out of 10 couples will make this decision. Traditional couples, frequently use a
combination of fruitcake (as a cutting slab that is then handed out at the reception) and a European Buttercream cake
(that is served as dessert).

Trends
Valley Bakery's most popular cake is the European Buttercream cake. This cake uses buttercream that is not excessively
sweet but is light and enjoyable to eat.
Our customers add variety with their requests for layers of custard, sour cherries, mocca, lemon and the list goes on.
This cake can be decorated in many styles ranging from ornate, to simple and elegant.
A three tier cake would be priced in the range of $275 to $325. This cake is certainly the single most popular choice for
dessert and coffee at the end of the reception.
