Tree Trunk Wedding Cake with Leaves
The leaves are falling from the trees in earnest around here and I have to admit I’d prefer if the leaves stayed on the trees for a bit longer. Because we all know that once the leaves have fallen the snow takes over.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Today we’re talking about leaves. Bright colored fall leaves.
Just like the fondant leaves on this “tree trunk” wedding cake.
I just love the cool fall vibe of this cake. Read More

We actually linked to this beautiful hand-painted cake by Dream Day Cakes of Gainesville, Florida, in our Let Them Eat Cake Round-Up last May, but it’s so special, we thought it deserved its own post.
Notice the details: both the tree on the bottom tier, as well as the branch that the bird cake toppers are “perched” on, were handpiped meticulously by baker and cake artist Yeni Monroy. Fred Read More
Chocolate Fondant and Autumn Tree Wedding Cake
Isn’t this pretty? So nice and…autumn-y. I think Christen will be really impressed with me for posting this one. What do y’all think?
This beautiful cake, made by Slice Cake Studio in Longmont, CO, was inspired by the couple’s wedding invitation! I would really like to see that stationary personally, because this is stunning and I think it just looks, well…yummy.
Three layers, perfectly uniform in height…the bottom and top covered with a rich, chocolate-brown fondant. And sandwiched Read More
