Handmade Christening Cakes for a Special Day

A common tradition was to save the top tier of your wedding cake and later use it for your child's christening cake. Today, most families choose a cake made just for the day, but with so much choice it can be hard to decide what would make the perfect christening cake. Modern christening cakes come in various shapes, sizes, styles and even colours. Some have simple decorations on the top, while others are a lot more extravagant. Patisserie Valerie has a great selection of modern christening cakes for girls and boys.

You can opt for a christening cake in soft pastel blue or pretty pink. If you prefer a neutral colour scheme, the Lambeth Cake in white is a beautiful two-tier option that serves 24. You can also add an inscription at checkout to help you mark the day.

Christening Cakes for Girls

If you are looking for a christening cake for a little girl, the Pink Candy Stripe Gateau has four layers of soft pink sponge with raspberry jam and fresh cream, and serves 14 or 20. The Vintage Heart Cake in pink is another pretty choice.


Christening Cakes for Boys

For a little boy's christening, soft blue is a popular choice.

The Blue Candy Stripe Gateau is a lovely choice for a christening. Four layers of fluffy sponge are filled with raspberry jam and fresh cream, then coated in Swiss meringue buttercream and hand-finished in striking blue and white candy stripes. It comes in two sizes, serving 14 or 20.
