For the Guys: Groom’s ‘Cake’ Picnic Feast
Guys, I had to.
So many times, I see groom’s cakes, and I think, that groom had NOTHING to do with picking out this cake.
But this one has the mark of GUY all over it.
From the chicken tender bottom tier, to the subs on the middle tier, to the bowl of macaroni salad on the top tier (oh boy, I hope they didn’t freeze it) and beyond – to the Chewbacca and Bride cake toppers….nothing has EVER said Read More
Cake Topper Friday: Motorcycle Wedding Cake Topper
So I’ve actually never been on the back of a motorcycle. Or the front of one, for that matter. I think they’re crazy dangerous and they scare me. But I still fantasize about being on one.
So I love this bride and groom on a motorcycle cake topper. About as much as I love the whole Read More
LOVE Wedding Cupcake
How about some late love on this lovely Thursday?
Sure, the day has kicked my fanny, and I’m just posting. So I thought I’d extend myself a little chocolate grace. So here is a cupcake. For you. And for me.
Isn’t this lovely? And get a load of the ab fab flav – it’s a chocolate chili cupcake with Mexican hot chocolate buttercream. ¡Ay, caramba!
And as if that weren’t enough, the fondant placket on top shows Read More
Red Show Stopping Wedding Cake with Roses
I’m not feeling very subtle today. So I went in search of a cake that would set Brooke convention (you know, beachy, classic, pearls, blah blah blah) on its head. And this is what I found.
Isn’t this stunning? Bands of different red hues encircle an otherwise simple three-tiered round cake. A band of white is added on the top and bottom layers for contrast, and the whole thing is trimmed out in Read More
Starfish Wedding Cake
It’s beachy, and it’s sea glass blue and green. That makes it perfect.
Now, while I wouldn’t put actual starfish on a wedding cake, these gumpaste buddies are just the thing. The cool colors – all greens and blues and hues in between – are some of my favorite, evoking water and calm…two things that speak to me in soft, soothing tones. The wonky ginormous bottom layer – is triple height the new Read More
Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for August 26, 2012
Hi There!
Oh my, but the autumn bug has officially bitten in this household! Oh, sure. There’s some summer fun left here, and we’re still wearing shorts and all, but it’s actually been, well, NOT hotter than the hinges of Read More
For the Guys: College Basketball Cake Pops
Thinking out of the box for the guys, aren’t these darling?
If your guy is a huge sports fan (or if you both are, and you want to use the groom’s cake as an expression of that) I think this Read More
Cake Topper Friday: The Bride and the Frog
I came across this adorable shot the other day and just had to show you. Are you the fairytale-loving bride? Then this one’s for you.
Bride, Meet your Prince. Now smack one on him and hope for the best!
Who should use this topper, do you think? She who Read More
Rustic Apple Wedding Cake
I’m feelin’ fall, y’all.
Blame it on all the back to school pics. My sweet girl went back last week, but just about everyone in my circle – far and wide – have seen their kids off to the school bus by this point. And so begins the yearning for crisp, cool weather that never comes where I live.
Well, if I can’t have Read More
