Ganache…the Other Cake Icing.
I had so many giggle-inducing puns that I wanted to use as a title that I just couldn’t decide. Here are just a few:
- Get Your Ganache On
- Oh Ganache…it’s Chocolate!
- Getcha, Getcha Ga-ga–naache (to be sung in your head to the tune of Lady Read More
Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for September 25, 2011
Fall is finally here!
Oh, sure, it was still 91 degrees today. But the light is different. And it actually feels, like, permissible to watch football.
So as the pumpkins and fall colors – and Halloween decorations? – start to make a little more sense, I just wish the mercury would drop. Just a leeetle. And incidentally, let me run off on a Christen-like tangent, because something was bothering me today, as I was shopping at the local Fresh Market. And that would be Peeps, People. Jack o’ Lantern Peeps. Is this just wrong to anyone else? I mean, don’t Peeps lose all their special Peep-i-ness when Read More

Scroll Pattern White Wedding Cake
Today, we show another installment in the “all white done right” category.
Jenniffer from Cupadee Cakes consistently turns out beautiful cakes. This one is no exception. Four tiers of white buttercream. Three of the tiers feature a wide piped border, reminiscent in detail of exquisite crown moulding. Different components make up the border, a combination of fleur-de-lis-like swirls and dots. On the third layer, Jenniffer fashioned a bow and anchored it with a brooch, both made of gumpaste. The cake is simple and elegant, Read More
The Office Cake
I know it’s Cake Topper Friday but I had to post this particular cake in honor of last nights The Office premiere on NBC. The Office is my favorite show and I have been anticipating this premiere since May. What can I say, I have issues.
Even though he’s living in Boulder with Holly I am pretty sure that Michael Scott would approve of these gigantic “World’s Best Boss” coffee cup cake. Question. Where did Michael Scott buy his “World’s Best Boss” Mug? Answer. Spencer Gifts. I also love the calendar next to the mug. If you were a true Office-a-holic you can have this at your wedding and have the date be the date of your wedding. That’s all kinds of adorable. I’ve seen Harry Potter and Twilight themed weddings before..but never an Office themed wedding. Hm…anyone care to try this theme out for me and send me picture? Or, is the last thing you want to be reminded of on your wedding day be a day at the office? Perhaps I’ll just have to wait for my next wedding to figure this one out. Just kidding Dave.
What did you think of the premiere? Do you love or hate the James Spader addition to the cast? Personally, I love him. He’s all slick and creepy like. That’s what she said.
You know I had to do it.
Au Revoir, Summer: Brightly-Colored Floral Cake
It’s September 22nd..and guess what? I’m done with you summer. I’m done with the heat, the miserable heat. Although, I must add I will take the vacation back though. Anyway, as my goodbye to summer I thought I’d share this cute little summer cake in order to make room for all the fall I am going to be throwing in your Read More
Stacked White Cake with Fruit
I LOVE this cake. I know that I say that a lot but I mean it this time. All the other times I lie. Just kidding.
This cake is adorable. It’s a three-tiered square cake, and the layers are stacked with fruit. Yummy fruit. Drenched in chocolate and powdered sugar. Fruit is always Read More
I Had a Blue, Blue Wedding Cake
Wow. Blue.
I’ve got to admit. I’m all over this color scheme. It might be a bit much for some..and I can only imagine what my teeth would look like after I chowed down on this bad boy..but it’s kind of amazing. This is a five tier round cake covered in a deep teal fondant and covered in lillies. The twenty-four lilies are actually made from gum paste. That shocked Christen Read More
Black and White Classic Cake
It’s no secret that often times I will post something funky and eclectic over a classic cake. Not because I don’t love the classics–but after awhile they all begin to look alike. However, you can always get me to change my mind when you show me a gorgeous black and white cake. So obviously, I love a tall classic Read More
Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round Up for September 18, 2011
Pardon me while I turn down the a/c so I can bake some pumpkin muffins.
Anyone else in a rush for fall to feel like, you know, fall? Here in the extreme Southeast, we’ve learned to take our fall cues from things other than the rustle of leaves and the cooling of temperatures. How do I know it’s fall? Well…lovebugs come back for round two. (Or is it round three?) Pumpkin patches start to pop up (and we have our pictures taken in folksy settings in our tanks and shorts and flip flops.) It’s not as hot…in the evening. Meaning that it dips below, you know, eighty.
So in this weird time, where the magazines are Read More

Grand Red and Black Wedding Cake
The cake I’m featuring today demands your attention.
This is no shy, shrinking violet of a wedding cake. No demure, “Oh, look how sweet and innocent I am. Really, just a place in the corner for me.” No sirree bobby. This cake declares itself the grande dame of wedding cakes, and expects you to perk up and notice – and use your best posture – when you walk into the reception.
Or is it just me? You know, attributing personalities to cakes?
At any rate, this cake by Shawna of Flourish Cakes (follow her on Twitter here) in Courtice, Ontario, is the kind of cake that is truly a centerpiece Read More
