Wedding Fun

So what happens when a cake decorator gets married?   Lots of late nights!! 

The last few weeks have been very busy.  My wedding was fast approaching so there was all the regular things to take care of and then of course the cake and treats on top of that. 

It started about 3 weeks ago with making the wedding favors.   Each favor was 2 chocolate hearts drizzled with white chocolate.

Then it was onto cookies.  I didn't want regular cookies, so I made these 3 tier wedding cake cookies.  Each cookie actually consisted of 6 cookies with 2 for each tier.   Rather then normal cookie icing, they are iced with white chocolate and finished with some gum paste flowers. 

Cake Pops make a great treat at a wedding.  They are a great finger food that also tastes great!  These were vanilla cake with cream cheese icing dipped in milk chocolate. 

Finally the cake!  I went with a simple wedding cake design because I LOVE the look of simple, elegant cakes.

 

The dessert table looked great thanks to the help of some great friends that set everything up.  Once I get the professional photos in I will share that with you. 

Royal Wedding Cake

A local retirement home was having a special Royal Wedding Celebration.   We were asked to make a 2 tier wedding cake for the celebration that included the flowers from the four corners of the UK - English Rose, Welsh Daffodil, Irish Shamrock and a Scottish Thistle.  

The bottom tier of the cake is chocolate and the top tier is fruit cake.   

Beach Cake

This cake is for a 50th Birthday Party.   The theme of the party is elegant beach theme.   The customer send me a inspiration board of pictures that they were as a guideline for decor.   This was perfect!  I was able to truly understand the feel of the party and design the cake accordingly.

This cake would also be perfect for a beach wedding.
