White Wedding Cake with Fresh Flowers
As much as I enjoy the occasional non-traditional wedding cake, for me it’s all about going back to the basics.
A simple white wedding cake.
I love white wedding cakes in part because they are a great canvas for whatever you might want to add.
This time of year – late fall – I love seeing gorgeous white cakes adorned with fresh flowers in dark hues. Black Magic Roses, Gerbera daisies in dark red, anything that is dramatic! Read More
Modern Wedding Cake
I’m a big fan of traditional wedding cakes – white frosting, flowers, cake topper.
But I’m also becoming a fan of the more non-traditional cakes we’ve been featuring here.
And every now and then I find an ultra modern wedding cake that knocks my socks off.
This is one of those cakes.
From the straight lines of the square tiers to the 3D illusion of the sugar paste rings, this cake has it going on! Read More
Modern Stenciled Wedding Cake
Sometimes when I'm looking for wedding cakes it's all flowers and embellishments. But every now and then I find a cake where simplicity is what makes it gorgeous.
This is one of those cakes.
It's your basic, run-of-the-mill five tier white cake. And on its own that would be a stunning cake and you could add some fresh flowers to make it really pop. And you'd have a pretty but basic wedding cake.
I love this cake for the simple fact that it goes beyond the flowers with a brightly hued glaze in between each layer. Read More
Apple Wedding Cake
As I drove around town today I noticed some leaves starting to change color. This can only mean one thing – fall is right around the corner!
Fall is the best season in my humble opinion because fall means apples. Lots and lots of juicy and delicious apples.
So take a peek at this cake and tell me how perfect it would look at a fall wedding. It's just amazingly simple and gorgeous. Read More
Flashback Friday – Chris Lambton and Peyton Wright’s Wedding Cake
What happens when two reality TV stars get rejected on The Bachelor and The Bachelorette? They get married of course, and have a beautiful and simple wedding cake!
When I saw this cake, I admit I had to Google the “celebrities” because even though I'm a fan of ABC's The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, I didn't know who Chris Lambton and Peyton Wright were.
As it is, they were both rejected on national television and are now co-hosts of HGTV's home gardening show, Going Yard. And the happy couple was married on May 5, 2012. Read More
Snowman Couple Wedding Cake
After sweltering and nearly melting in last week's heat wave, I had to find a cake that made me think of cooler temps, and this super cute Snowman Couple cake is it!
I love the simplicity of the cake itself – just white frosting and some gorgeous snowflakes accented with red berries which make the whole cake just pop!
But what really made me smile were the adorable snow people standing atop the snowy white cake. Seriously – how cute are they, dressed in their snowperson wedding best? Who knew Frosty could be so handsome? Read More

Remember the Toile the Jouy cake that I oohed and aaahed about yesterday? Well, as I flipped through the rest of the wedding, I realized that the dessert buffet for this particular real wedding, featured on Martha Stewart's website, was like nothing I had ever seen. The cake artist, Cheryl Kleinman of Cheryl Kleinman Cakes, created six single-tiered cakes with various themes to create the one-of-a-kind cake table for this precious couple. All of the pictures are so captivating that we are just gonna camp out here for the week, K?

Pink Ombre Pleated Pinwheels Wedding Cake
This cake is modern and girly and oh so fabulous! The pink pinwheels are the perfect accent for the simplicity of this white cake.
And I absolutely love the pink ombre coloring that Erica O’Brien Cake Design, of Hamden, Connecticut used to accent the cake. Ombre coloring is all the rage from hair color to clothing to party decor and even cakes. And it is executed perfectly here. Not too much pink but Read More
White Cake with Chocolate Scroll Work, Take Two!
You’re not dreaming. I believe it was just last week when I said that I had never seen a light cake with chocolate designs before. Well, if I had a hat I’d eat it.
It was also last week that I declared my love for hot pink gerbera daisies (again).
This week all my dreams have come true. Because here is a white
