White Monogrammed Cake With Single Initial
It’s well documented: I love white wedding cakes, and I love monograms.
I think it takes a special baker to make something truly original out of the sea of white wedding cakes that I view everyday. So when I spy something out of the norm, I really like to share it with you.
This is so pretty, don’t you think? In an austere, regal, slightly stand offish and reserved kinda way. This cake doesn’t associate with the other cakes. This lovely creation is reserved for Read More
Monogrammed White Fondant Cake with Purple Ribbon
My love of monograms is well documented, as is my love of white on white cakes. And actually, come to think of it, so is my love of Renay Zamora and Sweet Face Cakes.
But I never tire of any of these elements, or of Renay and her beautiful work.
Renay tells me a lovely story about this cake. She and the mother of the bride had a rather random connection. They had served on their church’s worship team, but hadn’t seen each other in years; however, they recognized one another immediately when they met at Read More
Grand Red and Black Wedding Cake
The cake I’m featuring today demands your attention.
This is no shy, shrinking violet of a wedding cake. No demure, “Oh, look how sweet and innocent I am. Really, just a place in the corner for me.” No sirree bobby. This cake declares itself the grande dame of wedding cakes, and expects you to perk up and notice – and use your best posture – when you walk into the reception.
Or is it just me? You know, attributing personalities to cakes?
At any rate, this cake by Shawna of Flourish Cakes (follow her on Twitter here) in Courtice, Ontario, is the kind of cake that is truly a centerpiece Read More
Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for July 24, 2011
Hiya!
So…how are you keeping cool during this scorcher of a summer? We’re fanning and heading to the beach and drinking plenty of iced tea. And while summer is scorching the rest of you, it’s just plain ole’ normal hot here in Florida.
But the heat hasn’t stopped the deliciousness that is a summer full of weddings. We’ve seen some Read More
White Chocolate Monogrammed Wedding Cake
Here we go with those birds again.
Good thing I love them…right?
There is so much to talk about with this cake I am having trouble deciding where to begin…so let’s just start with the facts. This is a four tier cake. The tiers have an alternating diamond pattern while the other layers are smooth and clean fondant. The top tier has an intricate swirl design and is topped with a gorgeous Read More
Classic White Round Fondant Cake
On my first day of graduate school I didn’t know a soul. By the end of the day I had two brand new friends and a date for sushi later in the week. One of those friends was named Bea and she was the first person I’d ever met that owned more than one piece of Chanel. Not just the kind of Chanel that I had (that my cousin bought me off the streets of NYC from a guy named Paco) but the real kind. Her collection not only included a purse but sunglasses and a pair of shoes. The good thing about Bea was that she wouldn’t rub it in your face. If you asked her if it was real she would tell you that it was but other than that she was pretty low-key about the whole Chanel thing. Another cool thing about Read More
Green and Black Damask Cake
Damask. Is. So. Hot. Right. Now.
But not, Gentle Reader, for your couch. Rather, it is hot for your cake.
Renay Zamora of Sweetface Cakes beautifully serves Middle Tennessee – including Nashville, Mount Juliet, Lebanon, Clarksville, Kingston Springs, Franklin and Murfreesboro. And Renay, it turns out, is a goddess of damask…as well as gluten-free baking.
You see, that beautiful cake that has captivated you, right next to my words? Yep. Gluten free. Renay tells the story of this special cake, and the bride that goes along with it, so well, Read More
