F A V O U R I T E. C A K E . Three layers of roasted hazelnut + dark chocolate, sandwiched together with rich chocolate ganache + buttercream icing . This cake remains our top pick even though we’ve eaten it a thousand times... it was our wedding cake, the mini-CGKs christening cake, my sisters + sister-in-law’s wedding cake, and it’s now spread beyond the family to other celebrations too .

CGK + Alison Henderson will be joining forces to create a dining experience at beautiful Amisfield Walled Garden, East Lothian. We will be mainly using Amisfield's own produce, with lots of berries, root vegetables and summer salads featured on the menu, & hope to serve this to our pop-up guests under the September sky (with a back-up plan for a cosy dinner inside by the fire if the weather is against us) . This will be a very special event to raise money for this wonderful public garden, which is run by volunteers who give so much back to the community .
