Create a centrepiece as memorable as your special day with a beautifully crafted cheese wedding or celebration cake. Elegant, distinctive and utterly delicious, a cheese cake offers a wonderful alternative to a traditional fruit cake while providing your guests with something truly unforgettable.

Each cake is individually designed using carefully selected artisan cheeses, arranged into stunning tiers that can be tailored to suit your style, venue and number of guests. Whether you envision an intimate three-tier display or a magnificent six-tier showpiece, we will help bring your vision to life.

A Personal Cheese Tasting Experience

Your journey begins with a complimentary consultation and cheese tasting at The Cheese Hamlet. This relaxed and enjoyable experience allows you to sample a selection of exceptional cheeses while we discuss your preferences, wedding theme and guest numbers.

Together, we will create a bespoke design and explore the perfect accompaniments, from artisan crackers and chutneys to preserves and other carefully chosen pairings. By the end of your tasting, you will have a clear picture of how your cheese cake will look and taste on your wedding day.

Following your consultation, we will prepare a personalised quotation. To reserve your cake, we simply require a £50 deposit, leaving you free to focus on the many other exciting details of your celebration.

Preparing for Your Special Day

Your cheese cake will be freshly prepared and ready for collection on the day before your wedding, or on a mutually agreed date. Whilst decoration is typically undertaken by your florist, wedding planner or caterer, we are delighted to share ideas and inspiration to help create a truly spectacular display.

After the photographs have been taken and the cake admired by your guests, we recommend carefully dismantling the tiers and arranging the cheeses on a cheeseboard for serving. This creates a beautiful grazing display and allows your guests to enjoy the cheeses with ease.

Should your venue require one, we can provide a cheeseboard free of charge, subject to a fully refundable £30 deposit.

Ordering Your Cake

To ensure access to the finest seasonal cheeses at their very best, we recommend booking at least one month before your wedding or celebration.

However, if your special day is fast approaching, please do not hesitate to contact us. With over 200 varieties of cheese available from our Didsbury shop, we will always do our utmost to accommodate your requirements and create something truly special.

We would be delighted to help you design a unique cheese wedding cake that reflects your tastes and becomes a talking point for your guests.

CLIENTS SAY...

  • Abi & Claire

    You were both such gents when searching out and ordering the cake. Your knowledge was invaluable. Our guests loved it!!! They have raved about it ever since. Really was a talking point.

  • Steph & Chris

    Dealing with The Cheese Hamlet for our wedding cake was a delicious delight from start to finish. It began with a quick email and an invitation to a “cheese consultation” at the shop in Didsbury, where we sampled all sorts of different flavours. John was full of knowledge and fascinating stories about all the cheesemakers, and was able to recommend the perfect mix for our big day.

    From bottom to top, we ended up with the most amazing extra mature
    cheddar we’ve ever tasted (which my cheese-loving Dad said was “really
    rather special”), a Cornish Yarg wrapped in nettles, a heavenly Colston
    Bassett Stilton, an ultra-creamy Delice de Bourgogne, and topped with
    another little cheddar in a wax heart. Stunning, delicious, and raved
    about by every one of our guests. And The Cheese Hamlet even offered to
    sort out crackers, chutney, and a display board for us too. 

    If you’re undecided about whether or not to go for a cheese cake, we hope this persuades you to talk to The Cheese Hamlet. Seriously, get one. And then invite us to your wedding.

  • Charlotte & Josh

    A big thank you to John and his team at The Cheese Hamlet for providing us with our cheese wedding cake. We were able to sample cheeses before deciding which ones to include in our final tower – John was hugely knowledgeable and helpful in this process. The cheese tower was used as part of our evening buffet and was a huge success among our guests. We
    would highly recommend.
