I recently made a wedding cake for the lovely Laura Gooch and her husband Richard. Laura and I worked together a while back when I wrote the Brighton Argus’ Property and Interiors Guide – she subbed it, basically turning my words and pictures into lovely magazine articles. Thankfully she and Richard loved my cake too, not just my writing!
I took some pictures at the time and they are in my gallery but I am no professional when it comes to photos and I never saw the finished product when the fresh flowers were put on top.
Fortunately, another ex-Argus employee came to my aid – the very talented Paul Fletcher who took all the wedding pictures and below are the wonderful results.

As you can see they are great pix of a great cake, not that I am trying to blow my own trumpet. The cake itself was Belgian chocolate cake, sandwiched together with chocolate ganache buttercream, covered with chocolate paste and then finally covered with tons of Belgian chocolate cigarellos.
To say it was chocolatey would be an understatement and more than a few cigarellos ended up in the mouths of me and my lovely assistant Adele.
Anyway, back to the point of all this, if you want to check the rest of Paul’s work then visit his website at www.paulfletcherphotography.co.uk
