About this collection
For these vintage designs, I use a specific Lambeth-style piping technique that requires a steady hand and a lot of patience. Because the intricate ruffles and borders need time to set perfectly, please make sure to place your order at least 48 hours in advance so I can give your cake the attention it deserves.
There is something about the revival of vintage cake designs that feels incredibly special. It reminds me of the classic baking art I admire so much. When I work on these cakes, my focus is entirely on the texture and the flow of the buttercream.
I combine traditional piping styles—like the ruffles, swags, and rosettes you see in this collection—with a modern, minimalist color palette. Whether it is a dusty pink for a birthday or a deep red for an milestone event, the aesthetic relies on a balance between the richness of the frosting and the clean look of satin ribbons.
The Process
Every vintage cake starts with a crumb coat to ensure a smooth surface for the piping work. Then, the real craft begins. I pipe these details by hand using premium-grade buttercream, which holds its shape better than standard frostings. This is why you see such sharp edges on the ruffles.
Flavor & Finishing
While the design is the hero, I refuse to compromise on what is inside. You can choose from any of my signature flavors, such as the Belgian chocolate or fresh fruit vanilla, knowing that the cake base will be just as good as the decoration on top.
I finish these cakes with high-quality satin bows and, if requested, custom acrylic toppers. If you have a specific color theme or a sentimental message you want included, let me know. I love adapting these retro styles to fit your personal story.
Le Sucrier
I’m Ashima, the pastry chef behind Le Sucrier. I believe a cake should look as timeless as the memories you are celebrating, which is why I have spent so much time perfecting the ruffles and piping details that define these vintage designs. When I am not in the kitchen, I am likely planning the next delicate border for a client's special day.
