Blue and Orange Wedding Cake Pop Mania

cakepopmania2

You know me.  You know that there is nothing I love more than 300 cake pops just waiting to be eaten.  I could only love it more if I was lucky enough to be one of the people who got to eat one of these cake pops.  Sadly…I was not.

This cake pop tower was (I am pretty sure) the highlight of a fall wedding in Nashville this year.  The bride and groom chose a navy and orange color scheme for their wedding.  Remind me later to talk about my love for all things navy as of late.  I feel a “Navy Cakes” post coming…hmm.  Anyway, the cake Read More

Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for October 30, 2011

Publix Cake

I’m sorry. Did you say there is snow on your jack o’ lantern?  Sounds like I got back from my picturesque jaunt up north just in time.

I jest, though.  Truth is, I’d love to see some of the white stuff, and introduce my kiddoes to it as well.  True Florida babies, they’ve never seen snow outside of pictures.  But, well, it’s just so darn early.  I hope, for the sake of my dear friends who are brushing and scraping their windshields, that the October snow isn’t a harbinger of a particularly Read More

Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for August 28, 2011

Lael Peach cake

Happy Sunday, Everyone!

We’re in sort of a holding pattern here today…anyone else?  We’re talkin’ ’bout that time of year when kiddoes go back to school, but Labor Day hasn’t happened yet…so in your brain, you’re thinking brisk weather, polished and shiny apples for the teacher, and penny loafers…but on the news, you’re seeing summery things like hurricanes and picnic preparations.  It’s all so confusing.

So…if you’re like me, and you’d really like a respite for your tired, overworked brain, check out some of the latest from the World of Wedding.  We’ve gone in search of all the Sweet and Pretty Read More

Wedding Cake Trends for 2011

Buttoned Cake

So seven months into 2011 I think it’s time we talk trends baby. Cake trends that is. Because let’s face it..I am always behind on clothing trends. I try so hard but oh my goodness how do I love a pony-tail and cardigans..I am so boring that way.  However, cake trends?  I think I got it.

Since I’ve been blogging about wedding cakes five days a week for the last seven months I have begun to take notice of the good, the awesome, and the coveted of wedding cake designs. There are lots of fun options that you can do with your wedding cake. 2011 has definitely been a wedding season of sweet, pretty, and creative. Here are just a few things that I am digging as we make our way into the last five months of 2011.

Double It Up

The Double Height Tier is probably my favorite trend this year.  It’s a pretty simple concept: take a simple three-tier round cake and add height to one of the tiers.  It gives the cake height and an asymmetrical quality that takes it from a normal cake to a spectacular one.   Traditionally a cake tier is anywhere from 3-4 inches tall.  To achieve the double height the baker simply adds Read More

Happy Valentine’s Day!

I love Valentine’s Day..I always have. Even when I was a kid I would always through a Valentine’s Day themed party.
