Succulent and Bramble Wedding Cake
I'm feeling all minimalist-y this morning, y'all.
I didn't think I was. I thought I was feeling all spring-in-bloom-y. But then I spied this beautiful cake, and I realized I was wrong.
Just like the beauty of the Read More
Whimsical Wedding Bells Cake Topper
Doesn’t this cake just say spring wedding to you?
If you’re a bride looking forward to spring or summer nuptials, I super think you need this cake. I adore the nod to tradition with the wedding bells. And the whimsy of the daisies makes Read More
Hand-Painted Lavender Wedding Cake
Anybody out there planning a summer wedding with a Provençal theme? You're welcome.
I saw this today on Pinterest and just had to show it to you. Sadly, I have Read More
Rustic Flower Basket Wedding Cake
I wanted to feature a cake today that was sort of an homage to summer’s last big hurrah. After all, it’s still summer. It’s too hot to call it fall yet, and besides, we haven’t hit the equinox. 
So what signals the end of summer better than gathering an overgrown bounty? This Flower Basket Wedding Cake was the perfect fit.
Look closely, because those baskets are, in fact, cakes. The sugar paste flowers appear to be the star of the show when really, they’re just garnish.
Isn’t the detail Read More
Fondant Ice Cream Pop Cake
And so, it is upon us. That time of year that Floridians hate the most. While the rest of you are flaunting your about-to-dip-into-crispness temperature, we continue to swelter. And since making hay while the sun shines sounds incredibly boring, I’ll embrace my lot, Sunshine State Style – with a trip to the beach and an ice cream treat.
I’ve said it before: Erica O’Brien is a cake goddess. Check out this simply, stunningly adorable Ice Cream Pop Cake that she came up with. Her inspiration? Read More
Yellow and Grey Chevron Wedding Cake
Yellow and grey are so hot right now. We are seeing them simply everywhere! And wedding cakes are no exception.
Isn’t this trio of cakes by Jasmine Clouser of The Couture Cakery darling? Where to start? The color combo is enchanting; I especially love how Jasmine used both bold and pale shades of yellow. The quilting on the large cake is divine. And the pearls! The varied heights of the cake rounds is awesome too, and keeps the whole cake from slipping into something too traditional. Add to it the juxtaposition of the flouncy peonies with the stylized simpler flowers, and it’s just all perfection!
Jasmine created this cake trio for a bridal show earlier this year, in conjunction with Weddings by JDK and Persnickety Invitation Studio. The sweets table that came out of this dream team collaboration is simply breathtaking! Gorg!
If you love these cakes, be sure to look at others that we’ve featured by Couture Cakery, like this Orange Spring Tiger Lily Wedding Cake, and this Indian Inspired Cake.
Orange and Magenta Scroll Wedding Cake
This wedding cake is like coffee! Isn’t it?
What do I mean? It’s an instant wake up!
I love it. Really really REALLY. Not only is it replete with the world’s happiest flower, the DAISY, but the perfect scrollwork in two of the poppiest of colors, bright orange and magenta, make me want to dance. Or twirl. Or hula hoop. Or maybe all of the above. It’s kinda like a really fun twist on the hot trend of ombre, don’t you think?
I have no idea who made this cake, sadly, so if you do, please, speak up and let us know. In the meantime, enjoy it. Enjoy it like you enjoy a good summer party in your prettiest dress.
Love Birds and Succulents Wedding Cake
Oh, but the summer vibe just keeps on getting summerier. That’s a word, right?
So, today’s cake isn’t so much about the cake itself – don’t be hatin’ on me ’cause it came from Publix Supermarket – but it is about the beautiful way that the bride and groom decided to dress it up with so many darling details.
The cake is the perfect blank slate: white fondant with big, exaggerated, pearl trim. But what really caught my eye were the succulents trimming the cake (LOVE THEM), as well as the adorable – I mean, CRAZY adorable! – lovebirds nesting on top. The final touch is the Read More
Sunflower Wedding Cake
Ah, Happy Summer, Y’all!
Bees buzzing, lazing in a chair with a glass of lemonade, as the hazy sun shines. Tall grasses, children playing – because they are the only ones who have the energy in the heat.
But as the sun sinks lower into the sky, and with it, the mercury, we come alive as the stars come out to play. Grab your pashmina and keep the party going!
I waxed a wee bit poetical right there, didn’t I? Well, I couldn’t help it. I was inspired. By the cake.
Don’t you just love sunflowers? Nothing says 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
