Thanksgiving Cornucopia Cake

thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving friends! I hope you are spending your day with family and friends and eating lots of turkey, playing football and scarfing down some pie. In other news…

I did it! I actually found a Thanksgiving themed cake that is NOT shaped like a Turkey. Who knew it was possible?

The people at The Pink Cake Box must have had an un-turkey like vision for this beautiful three tiered spice cake. Yum. A Thanksgiving wedding with spice cake just seems like an amazing idea. In order to make it fall themed they added apples, Read More

Since tomorrow is the American Thanksgiving let’s stretch out our multicultural wings and talk about Norway. Specifically this Norwegian Kransekake Wedding Cake.

Although I have never heard of Kransekake until today…and I actually don’t really know how to pronounce it… Read More

Star Wars Cake

Well it took 11 months…but I am now proud to feature AWCB’s first Star Wars wedding cake. At least my first Star Wars wedding cake. Brooke may have featured one but I don’t think so.

Well…I’d love to tell you all about what exactly is going on here but sadly…I cannot. All I can tell you is that it appears to be snowy and Princess Leia and what I am assuming is Hans Solo (or this could be Natalie Portman and Hayden Christensen) are hanging out with a very large robot thingy. This Read More

Mount Rainier Wedding Cake

mtrainer

I hope that you enjoyed Ruffle Week 2011. I know that I sure did. Seeing all that ruffly goodness made me proud to be a girl.

As much as I love themed weeks this week we’re back to featuring regular old un-themed wedding cakes. Of course the obvious theme would be Thanksgiving but did you know that Thanksgiving weddings aren’t extremely popular? Therefore, Thanksgiving themed wedding cakes…not so much? Luckily I did find a gem that I will save for Thursday’s post.

Instead let’s post a wedding cake that is modeled after Mt. Rainier in Washington state. Because when you think of Thanksgiving don’t you think of the most dangerous Read More

Happy Sunday, Everyone!

I hope this finds you happy, healthy, and counting your blessings, this Sunday before Thanksgiving.  And whether you are going Over the River and Through the Woods, or gathering at a friend’s hip apartment with friends, my wish is that you find something to be truly grateful for this holiday season – love, laughter, plenty to eat, and so on and so forth.

But enough lecturing 😉 . We’ve found some lovely things around the interwebs this week, and we thought you’d like to see them, too.  So without Read More

White Chocolate Ruffle Cake

Ruffle White chocolate Cake

Today, we wrap up Ruffle Week 2011 here on A Wedding Cake Blog with a cake that has a little different take on the frilly furbelows of ruffles.

Ruffles. Meet Chocolate. Helloooo, perfection.

Don’t you simply LOVE this cake? Two tiers of cake, enrobed in real chocolate, People. This isn’t candy coating, or modeling chocolate. This chocolate has been tempered and made to resemble rustic ruffles, so that each slice of the cake yields a lovely snap. And check out the gorgeous flower pinned to the side, and the topping of – what else? – more Read More

Ombre Ruffle Cake

Ombre Ruffle Wedding Cake

We have to end Ruffle Week 2011 with a bang…I believe that is cake is the cake to do just that.

I’m not sure there is anything more “Fall 2011″ than Ombre & Ruffles.  When you combine them, wonderful, wonderful things happen.  Like this cake from Maggie Austin Cakes. (If you’d like to know about Maggie Austin Cakes – and trust me, you do – check out this week’s Round-Up for a terrific article about the artist.)

In case you have no idea what I am talking about, ombre is basically taking the same shades of one color and having the colors scale from light to dark.  We’ve talked about it a time or two here.  I have Read More

Cascading Ruffle Cake

190x190_pink-ruffle-cake

True fact.  Ruffles do not have to take over your cake.  They can cascade down it like some gorgeous waterfall.  Just like this one.

This cake is a three tiered cake covered in flawless white fondant.  I love how the ruffles just sort of fall down the side of the cake in various shades of pink.  I am not sure how but I almost want to wear this cake.  You know, like a shirt.  In fact I think I may own a Read More

Three Ruffle Cakes

Alanna and Tim-209

There are just so many things that are right about this picture that they had to be a part of Ruffle Week 2011.

Let’s start with the three gorgeous ruffle cakes.  One in perhaps the lightest pink that I have ever seen.  The next in a gorgeous light blue.  The third (and best) cake is a Read More
