Bakery for western style wedding cake
Hey LT,
My fiancee (LT) and I (IE) are getting married in Trakai in August. We're really struggling to find a wedding cake style that we both like. The difference in cultural norms here is substantial. We did a bunch of tastings here and I tried my best to settle on a Lithuanian style that I like, but they're just so far from what I always imagined for a wedding cake.
So we decided to try a multi layer cake, each layer in a different style, one for her side and one for my side.
But now we're finding it impossible to find any bakers who will support the idea. Local bakers are not familiar with the sponge / buttercream bases more commonly found on my side and aren't willing to stray too far outside of their traditional offerings - which is perfectly fair.
So I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations or ideas for any bakeries who could be up to the challenge? We would be so incredibly grateful if anybody could point us in the right direction.
We're primarily based in Kaunas and Vilnius, but willing to travel a few hours if needed!
