Beach-Inspired Wedding Cake
As winter continues its relentless grip on most of the country I have decided it’s time to dream about summer and beach weddings.
Which brings me to today’s nautical, beach-inspired wedding cake.
Don’t you feel warmer just looking at this cake? I can almost imagine the beach wedding, right on the sand, with the sun shining down.
OK, enough daydreaming. Back to this cake. Read More
Beach-inspired White Wedding Cake
Now that we are officially celebrating all things summer, our thoughts turn to beaches and summer weddings.
Which brings me to today’s beach-y wedding cake, complete with adorable mini Adirondak chairs as the cake topper.
I love the stark simplicity of the white fondant icing – it really creates a perfect palette to create lovely cake-scapes.
But what makes this cake perfect for your summer beach wedding are the incredible decorations. Read More
Seascape Wedding Cake
If given the choice I would live at the beach because I'm a firm believer in the theory that life is better in flip flops.
I love everything about the beach – the sand, the surf, the colors of the ocean. And, I always thought it would be romantic to be married on the beach. Which is why I love this beach-themed wedding cake. It just screams romance and you can almost hear the waves crashing in the distance, right?
The four-tiered cake appears to be hand painted with a seascape theme of blue skies, picket fences, sea grass and sand. Read More
Hawaiian Honeymoon Suitcase Wedding Cake
Hola, Everyone! And Happy New Year!
I know we’ve been a little…well…MIA of late. There was sickness involved. And perhaps an impromptu in law visit (don’t worry; it was a pleasure.) And there might be a thing or two besides writing about pretty cakes that I do to bring in the dollars here.
There. I said it.
But anyway! I’m back! And Read More
Seashell Cascade Wedding Cake with Sandcastle Caketopper
Whew! That was a mouth full. But how else was I gonna say it?
I have been lamenting myself right into a fall funk. Ya see, if I don't get myself outta the Sunshine State and to parts Northern (but still south of the Mason-Dixon line) this time of year, I get a little wistful. Um K…a LOT wistful.
So what's a girl to do to shake off the autumn blues? Yep…you guessed. Head to the beach. That's what I did this weekend, and that's what I'm doing for you today!
I adore Read More

I hope you aren’t tired of beach-inspired wedding cakes, because I probably never will be.
I know that I’ve featured my fair share of wedding cakes that incorporate ocean elements over the last couple of years, like this Teal Seashell Wedding Cake from a wedding in Key West. Well, today’s cake has kind of an interesting story, too.
This cake was made for a recent wedding at Read More
Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for July 1, 2012
Hey Guys! I’m writing to you from Baltimore, Maryland, where we are hanging out in anticipation of going later to a – you guessed it – family wedding. Good times, since I’m getting to experience both an epic heat wave and some of the worst storms in history. A line of wind and thunderstorms ripped through here last night after wailing on my home state of West Virginia, and we swore we saw Dorothy’s house floating through the air. So here’s hoping that all of you out there are safe, sound, and will have power back in the very near future. Stay cool, y’all.
Well, since I’m traveling with my darling family – Great American Road Trip, Y’all – I am currently luxuriating in the peace and solitude of a very comfortable hotel room while Hubs is entertaining the kiddoes. (Yay HIM!) So, in this quiet time, Wimbledon on the telly, coffee in hand (sadly, no strawberries and cream), let’s look around together and find out what’s going on in the world of wedding, yes? But let’s start with what we’ve been up to this week.
On Monday, I featured a beautiful little cake that we spied recently at a Key West destination wedding – a Teal Blue Wedding Cake with Sea Shells.
Tuesday’s cake was a this breathtaking creation by British artist Janet Mohapi-Banks: a White Feathers Wedding Cake.

Beach Cupcake Perfection
I am in love. I am in love with a group of cupcakes.
Y’all know that I’m a beachy kinda girl, n’est pas? I mean, give me two spare hours and see if you’ll catch me ANYWHERE else. I will be under the umbrella, swimsuit on, iPod tuned to something mellow, watching the tide ebb and flow.
So it should come as no surprise that I instantly fell in love with this aDORable Read More
