For this wedding cake the bride really wanted something traditional. She liked the idea of having pillars with the cake topper in the middle, so the top tier was decorated with a cluster of royal icing roses. Drop-strings in ivory buttercream surround the bottom two tiers with a royal icing blossom at each point. The middle tier is also decorated with cornelli lace inside each drop-string.

This wedding cake was for a couple who both happen to play Djembe drums. Since the wedding was in December the bride wanted the cake decorated with snowflakes as well as red bands to match the wedding colors. The two drums on top where hand made out of fondant to match the bride and grooms’ own drums.

Yellow and pink cherry blossom are accented with small green buds and chocolate vines. A hand molded fondant bride and groom were made for the top.

This wedding cake was for an October wedding so the bride really wanted leaves on the cake. However, her wedding colors were lapis (a dark blue/purple) and guava (pink) and she wanted me to try to incorporate them as well.

The cake is three square offset tiers covered in chocolate fondant. A guava fondant ribbon is wrapped around each tier and bright fall fondant leaves are cascading down the cake.

This round wedding cake was frosted in ivory buttercream and wrapped in a rust satin ribbon to match the wedding invitations. The sides of the cake were decorated with hand piped scroll work and leaves also in ivory buttercream. A wreath of gumpaste maple leaves was created for the top of the cake to match the leaves that were on the wedding invitation.

This small two tier square cake was adorned with handmade gumpaste green cymbidium orchids to match the bride’s bouquet.

The cake was also accompanied by a cupcake tower with 200 cupcakes in 3 different flavors.

This was the largest wedding cake I’ve made so far. It was four tiers and served about 200 people. I estimate that it weighed just over 40 pounds. The cake was frosted in buttercream and then decorated with chocolate fondant branches and fondant leaves in fall colors to match the brides flowers.

At the reception site there was also a classic cake topper added to the cake.

The cupcakes for this tower were baked in silver and navy cupcake papers to match the wedding colors. The top tier was covered in navy fondant and decorated with a silver monogram and two purple alstroemeria flowers.

This elaborate cupcake “buffet” display was created for a vineyard themed wedding. There were four different cupcake flavors, each baked in a different color paper and topped with a vineyard themed topper (wine bottles, wine glasses, and grapes). They were displayed on a custom decorated tower that was topped with a small tier adorned with vines and grapes.

This was my first cake delivered during a hurricane. Okay, not quite, but due to Hurricane Irene the wedding was moved up a day. Luckily I was able to finish the cake and deliver it just in time. The bride wanted something simple and elegant. The cake is covered in ivory fondant with a moss green satin ribbon wrapped around each tier. There is also a delicate pearl fondant border around each tier. The cake was topped with fresh yellow roses and surrounded by matching cupcakes as well as fresh rose petals.
