Lace Wedding Cake

lace cake

Having recently celebrated my own wedding anniversary, it’s always fun to think back to my wedding cake.

It was eight (yes, EIGHT) tiers of heart-shaped cakes. It was massive. But it fit my wedding theme – which was hearts. Everything was hearts.

I like a cake that fits in to a wedding theme or incorporates something from the wedding.

Just like today’s cake. Read More

Tree Wedding Cake

tree

A few years ago the hubs and I decided to tighten the purse strings.  The first thing to go?  Our way too expensive satellite.  And we never looked back.

That is until I realized that we could get those bunny ear antennas and I could still watch One Tree Hill.  Last night I pulled out those bunny ears and got to watching the very last season premiere of One Tree Hill.  In honor of that Read More

A Look Back: Christen’s Favorite Cake Posts of 2011

Exactly one year ago today I jumped on-board this bandwagon called A Wedding Cake Blog. It’s been a great year and I have literally been up to my eyeballs in frosting ever since. I’ve talked about cupcakes, traditional cakes, very blue cakes and been introduced to Cake Pops and Mini-Cakes. I’ve over-shared..I mean really..who knew that a simple wedding cake could inspire so much random blubbering? So on the eve of the eve of the New Year I’ve decided to take a look back at my top ten favorite posts of Read More

Alice in Wonderland Cake

alice

It’s no secret that I am a fan of Alice in Wonderland. I am also a fan of Alice in Wonderland weddings. I mean have you ever seen some of these magical Alice-themed weddings that Disney has put on? Ah-mazing.  We’ve featured a couple of Alice in Wonderland-themed treats here and here on A Wedding Cake Blog in fact. I’ve even seen some non-Disney weddings that have been breathtaking. There is just something about the story that is just so whimsical that allows for a gorgeous backdrop.

Enter this amazing cake made by Karen Portaleo the Sugar Artist (what a cool title, yes?) from Highland Bakery in Atlanta, Georgia. I mean seriously–let’s get Read More

Scrabble Cake Redux

scrabble2

We’ve featured a Scrabble themed cake here before.  However, that cake was a literal representation of the game…representing the board and all.  This one is a little more subjective.  If you’ve been pinning away on Pinterest you have probably seen a high variety of Scrabble-themed stuff.  And stuff was literally the only word that could encompass the Scrabble-mania that has rocked the pinning world.  Scrabble art, Scrabble cookies, Scrabble blankets…it’s amazing what you can do with those tiny letters.  I mean honestly…someone HAS to do something Read More

Zombie Wedding Cake

zombie

Yup.  What better way than to celebrate your day that have life-like replicas made of you and your groom armed with chainsaws and warding off zombies who happen to look exactly like your wedding party?

I can’t think of any.  Truthfully when I found this cake on the interwebs I was a little, well, disturbed.  Then, after some research, I found out why exactly this sweet looking bride and groom would have such a cake.  The bride was proposed to while helping friends shoot this short movie for YouTube.  Be warned, it’s not exactly the happiest video I’ve ever seen.  Well, the sweet proposal is happy, but the blood-sucking and tongue-ripping zombies aren’t exactly my cup of tea.  If you do watch it please tell me that you agree that it is just pure luck that there is a guy dressed as a tree and he conveniently Read More

Under the Sea Wedding Cake

Under the Sea Wedding Cake

OK, I had to stick with the under the sea theme after those cutie pie scuba diver cake toppers!

This one features a shark and what looks to be either a sunfish…or a yellow submarine! 😉 I really like the ship topper, but I can’t get over those little piped bubbles on the side. I think that’s a really fresh and Read More
