Wedding Cakes
The Swiss wedding cake tradition is closer to a patisserie counter than a tiered fruit cake: expect buttercream, fresh cream, seasonal fruit and a dessert table beside the cake rather than instead of it. Confiseries here are old, serious businesses, often family-run for generations, and many will only take a fixed number of weddings a season. Prices are quoted per portion, delivery to the venue is usually extra, and anything structural needs a cool room on a summer day. If you want a sugar-paste tier or an English fruit cake, say so early, because not every baker makes them.
