Vintage Piping
Lambeth-style piping builds a cake up in layers of ruffles, beading, swags and scrolls, all piped by hand in buttercream. It is the most time-intensive buttercream work I do, and the result has a depth no other finish can match. These cakes suit formal halls and romantic, old-world weddings. My guide to vintage wedding cakes covers the technique, and the wedding cake trends for 2027 shows where piping is heading. Layered piping lands above the starting price for its size.
