Fora Central Street played host to a very regal exhibition of would-be royal wedding cakes this week, in light of the upcoming Clerkenwell Design Week and one particularly highly anticipated wedding this weekend.
Some of London’s leading creatives – partnered with top bakers – were commissioned to create sculptural confections fit for Harry and Meghan’s Saturday celebrations.
Kia Utzon-Frank founded KUFstudios, a multidisciplinary design brand comprising of 6 versatile projects. Within her practise, KUFcakes are bespoke luxury cakes made using a marzipan printer to build unusual forms that trigger conversation. Kia has created her own special suspended Royal Wedding Cake, made of 24 chocolate spheres hanging in a ring formation. Each sphere consists of two half spherical “flødeboller” gently stuck together- a Danish classic treat made from soft Italian meringue covered in chocolate with a 66% almond paste base. One side is elderflower flavoured and the other side is citrus flavoured.
