My First Wedding Cake




This was my first wedding cake. It turned out beautiful. The bride wanted a very simple look with the dots. The flowers that you see were all real roses cut and placed just in the right spot. The bride didn't have a topper so we used some of the roses to top the cake off. Instead of doing traditional sheet cakes, the bride went with square cakes that matched the tier of the wedding cake.

Sugar Crystal Wedding Cake


(First - I want to apologize for the first photo that isn't rotated. I wasn't able to get it rotated with the disc I have.)
This was such a pretty cake. It is hard to see the detail of it in these photos. The bride wanted three different colors of ribbon - one on each tier. Then she wanted some texture to the cake so I added some sugar ice crystals that made it sparkle. I was worried about this one when I delivered it because it was pouring rain outside, but with my mom's help and an umbrella the sugar didn't get desolved in the rain! The topper that was used belonged to the brides parents. I know that this meant alot to her family.
