Neil and his team made us the best Wedding Cake ever - a 1 meter high, 60 portion Croquembouche with extra nougatine (if you have a sweet tooth ask for this).

We put it in the middle of the dance floor during the evening reception and after breaking the top of it (no gentle cutting - this needs a heavy large knife), we invited our guests to come forward and break off a piece each.

It was the talking point of the evening and the pieces were very tasty.

Neil built the Croquembouche around an inner cone which meant that it could be delivered to our venue in pristine condition.

I would highly recommend Neil and his team.

Thank you so much to Neil for such a great wedding cake. We had individual cupcake sized gateaus and cheesecakes with different fillings and flavours and they were delicious. Forget my dress the cakes were the main focus of the day! Everyone commented on how lovely they were and I definitely agreed! All very well organised, came to the venue, set up the tiers and all was perfect. So many wedding cakes are the boring sponge and hard icing but these are unique. Cant imagine the time and effort that goes into making them but well worth it! Thanks so much Neil and Papillon, and sorry it took so long for me to write this review!

I met Neil at the National wedding show and arranged a meeting with him at Le Papillion shortly after to talk about our wedding cake. We chose cupcakes and Neil created beautiful British themed inspired cupcakes to suit our day - they tasted like a slice of heaven!! Would highly recommend - Neil is both professional and a beautiful cake maker. Plus his prices were really reasonable. Thanks very much! Sophie & Adam

We had a very clear idea what we wanted for our wedding cake but no-one seemed to do exactly what we were looking for - then someone recommended Papillon Patisserie. As soon as I saw their website I knew we had found the perfect supplier. We had a selection of cheesecakes, lemon meringues, belgian chocolate mousse & strawberry tarts. It looked amazing and tasted even better - people are still talking about it! Neil was great and took control of everything on the day - we did not have to worry about anything. Thank you!!!

If there was one aspect of our wedding we did not worry about, it was the cake. Neil (Papillon Patisserie) was professional from start to finish, and we were confident that a good service and an amazing cake would be provided on the day!

We were not wrong, our wedding cake looked fantastic and tasted even better. It was exactly what we had wanted and our guests especially enjoyed it! Thanks so much Papillon Patisserie! We will come back to you next time we have special occasion. From a newly married couple!

We opted for a dessert selection for our wedding cake. The display was breathtaking and was the perfect end to a wonderful meal! So many people told me that it was the best cheesecake that they had ever eaten.

I came across Neil at a wedding fair and was instantly impressed by his stand. The cakes looked wonderful but did they taste as good as they looked? absolutely. For our daughter's wedding we ordered his delicious croquembouche and a selection of canapes. All were delicious, our only regret was to have under ordered as our guests kept going back for more! The wedding venue was quite some distance away from his base but that was no trouble for him. Neil is a true master of his art and a pleasurable, trustworthy supplier that I highly recommend

I was hesitating between the famous laduree and Papillon and am so glad we chose Papillion. We ordered a croquembouch, desserts and then small canapes. They were of an extremely high quality and delicious and looked fantastic. We received so many compliments about the deserts. It is also very well priced.

Neil was also great to deal with, he always got back to you quickly and was very reliable. He is absolutely passionate and it really shows in the quality of the cakes.

I would absolutely recommend Papillon without a doubt.

We first saw Le Papillon at the National Wedding show in 2010. We took a pamphlet and my husband had already picked and said this is the one. We waited until we got our venue and booked an appointment with Neil after speaking with him on what we required. He was so helpful and picked up on we wanted. Yum yum is all I have to say about the tasting. So much choice so we had a mixed sponges wrapped in divine chocolate. The cakes arrived on time. When I saw them I thought wow lets not eat them they look too gorgeous. But once we tasted...goodness!

The cakes were mouth watering delicious. All guests wanted to eat so much more but could not for they are so filling. They were filing their handbags & pockets taking the morsels back home for a later night snack.

Thank you Neil for a service that was fantastic from beginning to end. For cakes made that tasted fantastic. You will definitely see us again...and again....and again.

From when we met Neil from Le Papillion Patisserie at the International Wedding Show, we knew he was the man for the job! He had an extremeley laid back, friendly and non pushy approach. His cakes looked incredible and we had our heart set on a non traditional, french influenced wedding cake. When Neil invited us in for a tasting, we were overwhelemd not only by the choice but by the quality of the cakes. We just couldn't get enough! We had an informal chat about what we were looking for over a cuppa and we really struggled to choose, we were spoilt for choice! That was when we decided to have 2 wedding cakes! One for the day event and one to open the evening buffet! This was a decision we never looked back on. I felt 100% confident about the cake element of the wedding and it was one of the best decisions we could have made. Neil dealt with our florist to ensure we had the cake dressed in exactly the way we wanted. I had nothing to worry about and everything was arranged between them. The day before the event, I decided to let Neil know that I was keen on having a dessert fountain / sparkler on top of our croquembouche! Realsing it was last minute, I thought it might not be possible and I quickly forgot about it. The cakes on the day were everything we wished for and more and Neil had gone out of his way to get to the shops before closing to ensure my cake fountain wish came true. I was over the moon and our guests couldn't stop talking about how incredible the cakes looked and how delicious they were. I couldn't recommend Le Papillion Pattiserie anymore. Thank you Neil for making it everything I wanted on or special day. Steph & Matt 09.09.11
