If you're thinking of a DIY wedding and looking for some wedding cake ideas, then I've researched five delicious options that come in at under £1 a guest.

Of course, you could always make your wedding cake yourself. Lorraine Pascale has some great, easy to follow ideas.

But if you're not a baker, then I've rounded up some tempting supermarket options that will fit the bill and your budget.

Remember the key is all in the presentation. Find a cake topper you like, invest or hire some pretty cake stands and you'll get the professional finish you're looking for.
