THE SERPENTINE CAKE
A single, flowing cake across multiple curved tables. Designed, measured, and crafted to your venue.
The Serpentine Cake is our signature offering for large-scale events – a continuous cake that winds its way across a series of curved tables, creating one of the most striking dessert presentations a venue can hold. Whether it’s a wedding, a corporate gala, a milestone celebration, or a product launch, the Serpentine transforms the cake itself into part of the room’s design.
We’ve delivered Serpentine Cakes spanning up to ten metres across four curved tables, each one assembled on-site, designed with custom-cut boards to match the exact curve of your venue’s setup, and built to flow seamlessly from end to end. Every Serpentine Cake is hand-finished on site with custom decoration to suit your event theme.
OUR SERVICE INCLUDES
- Custom-cut cake boards engineered to your table layout
- Full design consultation
- Delivery and on-site setup
- Coordination with your venue’s table rental
FLAVOURS AND FINISHES
Every Serpentine Cake is finished in American buttercream with your choice of our cream cheese-based fillings – the right combination for a cake that needs to look perfect from setup through to cutting, hours later.
TABLES
We recommend renting the curved tables from our trusted supplier – we’ve worked with their exact dimensions and can guarantee a perfect cake-to-table match. If you’re using your own curved tables, we’ll arrange an on-site measurement visit (a small additional fee applies). Minimum two tables (S-curve).
INVESTMENT
Starting from R40,000 for a two-table S-curve. Most full Serpentine Cakes range between R55,000 and R90,000. Final pricing depends on tables, guest count, cake height, flavour, and decoration.
