Posted on November 15, 2011 by Christen

I am never surprised when I see a cake on Pinterest that I think it is just amazing and then I click the link and it takes me to My Sweet & Saucy.

Melody’s cakes are just so fresh and modern while being classic all at the same time.  Seriously, the girl has some skills.  I’ve featured several of her cakes here Read More

Martha Stewart Ruffle Tower Cake

Guess what?

I have hereby determined that it’s Ruffle Week here on AWCB.

Why?  Because I have an abundance of ruffle cakes in my Pinterest folder and I have been teaching 2nd grade long enough to know that every week needs a theme.  Oh yes.

To kick off RW ’11 (Ruffle Week 2011) we’ve got to pay homage to the Goddess of the Ruffle herself.  You know who I am talking Read More

Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for November 13, 2011

Posted on November 13, 2011 by Brooke

Black and White ruffle wedding cake

Happy…well…post 11.11.11!  Lame, I know.  But wasn’t that crazy?  I mean, we’ve had 1.1.1, 2.2.2, 3.3.3, etc, etc,…but people really went crazy for 11.11.11, didn’t they?  From movie premieres to weddings, it was crazy times this past Friday.  Heck, we’re just glad to be that much closer to Turkey Day around here.

Still, beyond that freak snowstorm that pummeled the Northeast, it’s turning out to be a lovely fall.  And as we’re making our lists and checking them twice, we thought we’d pause to see what’s going on in the world of wedding.  But before we get to all the lovely, Read More

Chocolate Fondant and Autumn Tree Wedding Cake

Posted on November 12, 2011 by Brooke

Chocolate 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

Cake Topper Friday: Chicago Cubs Cake and Topper

Posted on November 11, 2011 by Christen

cubstopper

I’ve always had a thing for Wrigley Field.

This from the girl who just two short weeks ago asked her husband who won the Super Bowl.  (Answer:  The Cardinals…he has learned that I really just don’t care enough to attribute the right names to the right sports.  Of course I KNOW the Super Bowl is football if I thought about it.  Most of the time I simply don’t care to think).

Anyway.  My thing for Wrigley Field dates back to the first time I saw Sleepless in Seattle and they show a flashback of Sam (Tom Hanks) and Maggie (dead wife) Read More

Sale!  You know I am always hooking you up with the discounts at The Knot Wedding Shop.

Seriously, I love that place.  If I had a need in my non-wedding-planning life for monogrammed napkins and rhinestone tank tops that say “Bride” I’d shop there daily.

Sadly, I don’t.  But you might, and that gives me the opportunity to shop virtually for you.  Since I kicked off this week with Fall Wedding Cakes let’s continue with that Read More

Bunting Wedding Cake

Posted on November 8, 2011 by Christen

summer bunting

Here are some trends I have noticed for 2011:  Chevron, Horizontal Striped curtains and bunting flags.

Seriously, bunting flags are everywhere. I have seen them at children’s birthday parties, homes decorated for the 4th of July, in nurseries, and today I found them on a wedding cake. This cake was made by Zoe Clark of The Cake Parlour in London. Do you not love how the English and Canadians have an extra “u” in some words like “parlour” and “colour”? It sounds so classy. Anyway, I was flipping through the gallery and found these cakes to be classic and light. I personally felt like Read More

Fall-Themed Cakes

Posted on November 7, 2011 by Christen

fall mini cakes

I’m going to answer Brooke’s question from yesterday.

I celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas to the max. From the time November 1st until January 1st I embrace as much of the holidays as possible. I know sometimes Thanksgiving can get brushed over because of the hustle and bustle of Christmas. But not in my house. My mums are blooming and pumpkins and warty gourds Read More

Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for November 6, 2011

Paris Purple wedding cake

Happy November, Everyone!  Or, as my friend Maggie wryly said this week, “Merry Christmas!”

It does kinda feel like Thanksgiving and giving thanks gets swallowed right up in the mad rush of Christmas…which is, I’m pretty sure, not what we should be doing.  Nevertheless, I did my first spot of shopping today, and accepted my first invitation to a Christmas party.  So before I even have my Thanksgiving menu decided, Christmas is unfolding before us.

Well, here at A Wedding Cake Blog, we love them both – so we’ll do our best to talk about everything and keep all holidays in some semblance Read More
