Flashback Friday: Marcia Cross and Tom Mahoney’s Wedding Cake
It's Friday again and that means we're heading back in time to check out another fabulous celebrity wedding cake.
This week's cake is a towering creation, but it's also very beautiful and floral.
When actress Marcia Cross (Desperate Housewives) married Tom Mahoney in 2006, she reportedly invited some friends to a cake tasting to help her choose the cake flavors. This is a genius idea, although my husband was more than happy to be part of our cake tasting. Read More
Classic White Wedding Cake with Traditional Bride and Groom Cake Topper
I’m feeling a little — okay, a whole lot — classic today. And so my cake choice reflects that.
I love the elegant simplicity of the white buttercream wedding cake that’s trimmed with roses and topped with an uber traditional bride and groom. It would seem that the wedding was an affair with lots of “glitzy ambiance” so this cake struck the balance between the indulgence and the simple. And when you go with the classics, you don’t really need birds flying around the top or fireworks shooting off the sides, do you?
At the end of the day, after Read More
Double Height Flowered Red Velvet Cake
I went in search of something different today, and I found this lovely cake!
Don’t dismiss it as just a Read More
Double Tall Covered Bridesmaid’s Luncheon Cake
I espied this on Wedding Wire today and just had to share it with you.
I just love a little cake. Now, this one is billed as a cake for a shower or a bridesmaids' luncheon, but having gone through the big wedding hoopla, I love the idea of a wedding intimate enough that this darling little cake would be enough for all your guests.
There's so much to Read More
Cinderella Castle Wedding Cake
You know we love us some Disney here at A Wedding Cake Blog. In fact, as I write this, I am entertaining a visit on Wednesday to Epcot and reliving a jaunt to Magic Kingdom last week! Sigh. I heart living in Florida.
But I didn’t come here today to make you green with envy. Oh no. I came to show you a FABULOUS cake.
DisneyRob tapped me on the shoulder a while back and asked me if I’d like to feature his cake on our blog? And I said, Read More
Pink Wedding Cake with White Trim
Pretty, pretty, pretty. And dare I say – without being fired upon where I stand – ladylike?
This breathtakingly beautiful pink wedding cake with white trim makes me think of Easter dresses, and ladies who lunch, and kelly bags, and spectator pumps, and white gloves and hats, and every sweet, fun thing that there ever was about being a girl. Really. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a strand of pearls secreted about it somewhere.
Created by Jean-Paul’s Creative Cakes in (of course!) Charleston, South Carolina, pale pink fondant hides Read More
Yellow Ombre Buttercream Wedding Cake
Are you a fan of ombre? I am. I love this look on walls, papers, dresses…and, of course, ombre wedding cakes.
This yellow ombre cake is one of the prettiest examples of the technique I’ve seen. It’s really subtle, with just a kiss of color toward the bottom, for the couple who really like the idea of a white cake, but want just a tiny touch of color. The darling cake topper, consisting of a compact nosegay of yellow roses and other flowers, perfectly punctuates the look.
Beyond the ombre, aren’t the buttercream ribbons that adorn the cake fantastic? Look closely, and you’ll see that the effect Read More
Gray and Pink Cake Trio
Remember just yesterday when I told you that Multiple Cakes was a trend to look for in 2012. Oh, I had this little beauty (beauties) up my sleeve when I wrote that post!
This Cake Trio takes the stacking away from the cake and separates them into three different cakes. I can’t say if there is any particular reason to do this other than pure aesthetics. The largest cake is a three tiered cake–however a bit smaller in size than “typical” wedding cakes. The cake is Read More
Emerald Ribbon and Diamond Brooch Wedding Cake.
I. Love. This. Cake.
I think it’s everything that a wedding cake for an evening wedding should be. It’s stylish. It’s elegant. It’s dressed up. It’s refined. The colors are used sparingly, but with dramatic effect. And they are hues Read More
