How to Get The Perfect Cake and Desserts for Your Wedding

If you read our reviews on The Knot, Google, or Wedding Wire, you’ll see that we make every wedding amazing for our couples. From the food that guests rave about to the dedicated service that makes everything run smoothly or wedding cakes that add a sweet touch, we want our clients to experience a seamless event. Our in-house bakery is another way we give our couples a truly extraordinary, one-stop experience. 

Our coordinators help couples find the perfect desserts and cake flavors and designs to add a delicious ending to an amazing meal. From dessert tables, to a groom pie table (in lieu of a groom’s cake), to delicious and elegant wedding cakes, we can do it all. 

What Makes Our Sweets Taste So Good

Our bakery fully embraces the farm-to-table philosophy clients know and love in our savory dishes, with seasonal cake flavors and dessert offerings (as well as our rich, classic flavors). As with all of our offerings, the local flavors run deep with seasonal Poteet strawberries, Fredericksburg peaches, classic Texas pecans, and more making appearances for special cake flavors and pastries throughout the year. 

With our head pastry chef, Natalie Goode, at the helm, farm-fresh ingredients enrich our baked goods in a unique way. With over nine years of pastry experience, from high production to boutique bakeries, she has been largely responsible for creating our pastry program and that freedom has allowed her creative side to shine. Natalie blends the scientific precision of baking and new modern techniques with the creative possibilities of locally-sourced ingredients. She marries flavors that deliver the sweetness you expect with touches of fresh herbs and Texas citrus that elevate them to a whole new level. 

Advantages of Utilizing Our Bakery

Now, it’s true: there are boutique bakeries in Austin that we know and love for extravagant and exquisite custom cake design. However, one of the greatest advantages of having Royal Fig cakes and desserts at your wedding is that they will taste just as good as they look. The one-stop nature of our bakery also allows us to avoid things like design and delivery fees, so your money is spent more on food and less on logistics. 

How to Create Perfect Wedding Cakes or Dessert Tables with Us

We always want clients to have the best experience possible. That’s why we start our custom wedding cake process by determining if we are the right fit for clients by reviewing their ideas and expectations. We make our wedding cakes and desserts on the day of your event so that guests can enjoy the freshest, most delicious treats possible. There is a balancing act between freshness and ornate design, so we fit best with clients whose designs are possible within our timeline for freshness and flavor. 

After we determine that we’re the best fit for your dream wedding cake or other delicious dessert needs, you’ll get to taste our amazing flavors in the same private, comfortable experience you had for your savory selections. 

Once you’ve settled on flavors and dessert selections, you’ll get to coordinate the final vision with Natalie. You and your planner will share images of your ideal cake design and color palette, and she’ll plan something amazing for your big day. 

As they say, “The proof is in the pudding,” or in this case in the Orange Crème Brûlée. Chef Natalie has been generous enough to share her recipe for this amazing dessert to give you a glimpse of just how sweet your wedding can be. If you have questions about how we can create an amazing wedding cake or dessert table for your big day, don’t hesitate to reach out to us today.
