White Wedding Cake with Succulents and Teal Trim
There is an easy beauty to this cake – it makes me think of an outdoor late spring or early summer wedding, maybe at a botanical garden, surrounded by bright colorful flowers. This cake would look amazing in a setting like that.
I am loving the simple frosting and the Read More

Pink Marbleized Wedding Cake
It happens.
As you can imagine, I spend a wee bit of time looking at wedding cakes. (Okay. A LOT of time.) And every once in a while, I find one, and save it, and “ooh” and “ahh” over it…but sorta kinda forget to, you know, note where it came from.
Enter this beautiful cake.
I love LOVE this marbleized technique. And whether it’s achieved with fondant or modeling chocolate, I think it’s just so cool. That’s obviously what I thought when I saw this one, except I must have gotten so excited that I didn’t credit it.
I can’t really make out some of the flowers, but I believe the smaller ones are dogwood blossoms, some of my springtime favorites. And the simple piped beading is a nice finish.
So please, feel free to let me know if you know who baked this lovely cake, because I just HAD to show it to you. But I certainly love to give credit where it’s due. I’d really enjoy seeing more of their work, or hearing the story behind this one.
Dogwood Wedding Cake
I know, I know. The angle and lighting are a little funky on this one. But it’s sooooo still worth posting.
I love dogwood blossoms. We awaited with such joy the blooming of the dogwoods back home, when we knew spring was finally on its way. And this cake features beautiful versions of the lovely flower, used sparingly and asymmetrically on the various layers.
And speaking of the layers, I love a cake that has alternating shapes. This one features both squares and rounds, and the second layer from the top is both square AND Read More
Peony Pearl Wedding Cake
We are lovers to the max of Pink Cake Box around here. My partner, Christen introduced me to their work. You’ll know when I’m scrolling through their blog, because you’ll hear saying things like “Agh!” And “Gahhh!” And “Gorgeous!” My family probably thinks I’m having some kind of torrid love affair with my laptop.
…
I spied this cake on the blog just a few days ago, and Anne Heap and her talented staff graciously let me share the incredible pretty with all of you! The cake is Read More

Pink and Orange Buttercream Ruffle Peony Cake
Are you there yet? Are you in that absent-minded, don’t-bother-me-with-real-life-details-like-laundry-and-oil-changes that spring incites? I can think of nothing but glorious days, warm breezes, picnics, and playing outside. I want to wear flowy dresses made from lots of linen, drink lemonade and crisp white wine, and gather floppy flowers.
And here is the perfect cake to epitomize that vibe.
Nine days out of ten, you’ll find me buttoned up and starched, tailored and just so, and I love cakes that reflect that personality, too. Crisp edges, architectural and symmetrical features, like Read More
Green Leaves Wedding Cake
Disclaimer: I am not Irish. However, it’s that time of year when green is everywhere, and it should be here, too.
So, if you aren’t Irish either, then we’ll take this opportunity to spring forward, and dream of the green things that are about to burst forth
This cake, which was featured on TheKnot.com, is lovely, isn’t it? A simple, flawless white background, with sugarpaste leaves and Read More
Bright Green Wedding Cake with Dogwood Blossoms
Spring strikes again!
One of my very favorite signs of spring (when I used to live in a place that had such things) were the dogwoods blooming out every season. Ah. Breathtaking, and as intoxicating as that first warm day when you are so super tempted to go barefoot through the damp, soft grass. So this cake caught my eye in about a second.
The vibrant grass green color is the perfect choice Read More
