A Black and White wedding




This cake was 4 tiers of different flavors. Vanilla Bean Cake w/ Dark Chocolate mousse, Red Velvet Cake w/Vanilla Bean Mousse, Lemon Cake w/ Raspberry Mousse and Dark Chocolate Cake w/ Salted Caramel-Cashew filling. YUM! The cake was covered in alternating black and white fondant. The flowers were done with royal icing using a technique called brush embroidery. The pearls were all hand rolled out of fondant and coated in pearl dust. The setting for this wedding was amazing. It was at someones home in Snohomish with a lot of property. The centerpieces were stacks of old books with black candleobras and white candles. They also had lighted lamp posts around the tent and dancefloor. No detail was left untouched, even the outdoor bathroom facilities had black feathers on the handles. The bride and groom drove up to the cermony in a 1920's vehicle. Once I saw all their decor, I knew why the bride picked this design for her cake, it fit perfectly!

Cakes from the past couple weeks

This was ordered by my mom for a co-workers baby shower. The cake was Vanilla bean w/ dark chocolate mousse. Cake has been iced in whipped cream frosting. The wording is pink chocolate with pink and purple gumpaste flowers. These cupcakes were requested by a friend for a pampered chef party. They were triple chocolate and vanilla bean cake w/ Raspberry mousse filling. They party was a few days after July 4th, hence the red/white/blue/stars theme.
