Copper and Chocolate Wedding Cake

Copper and Chocolate Wedding Cake

Omistars in heaven above.

Really – why do we think that chocolate should be relegated to the groom’s cake?  Let’s be honest.  The brides do all the work.  The brides starve and sweat their brains out in exercise classes to fit into that dress, and it’s the brides who avoid all those “illegal” foods leading up to the wedding so that they are their blushing, rosy perfect selves.

So seriously…WHO deserves chocolate at that wedding reception MORE THAN THE BRIDE?

And if our fair bride will be indulging in this Read More

Rustic Un-Iced Wedding Cake

Naked wedding cake

I wanted to entitle this one “Naked Cake.”  But I didn’t know how Google might handle that.

I look at a LOT of wedding cakes, Dear Readers.  So I see a lot of trends.  Some trends are, well, trends.  Some “trends” are things that start out adorable, but after you’ve seen them twenty times, well…not so much.

The use slices of tree trunk to signal “I am rustic” is starting to kinda fall into that category for me.  However, I had to show you this one, because Read More

Cake Pop Wedding Cake

You know, we lurve cake around here in all its permutations…we’ve featured plenty of cupcakes, mini cakes, and cake pops right alongside beautiful and statuesque wedding cakes.

We do love the whole cake pop trend especially, however (tomorrow, my favorite will be cupcakes, or pie – pronounced /pah/ here in the South.  I’m fickle that way.)  But I digress.  Cake pops are darling and they are yummy, which makes them fabulous.

But how do you artfully display them, without reducing your swanky wedding reception to what Read More

Let Them Eat Cake: Sunday Round-Up for February 26, 2012

Roses wedding cake

Greetings, friends and fans of the lovely!

Something truly tragic happened this week. Yes. The silk string on my pearls frayed and now I am pearl-less until I get them fixed.

No, I’m serious.

So, in determining what to do about this predicament, I mean, what DOES a girl do?  Have a strand for everyday of the week so that they don’t wear out?  Where costume pearls or freshwater jobbies for everyday-around-the-house wear?  Because I am totally serious when I say I wear them Read More

Monogrammed White Fondant Cake with Purple Ribbon

Purple Ribbon Wedding Cake with Monogram

My love of monograms is well documented, as is my love of white on white cakes.  And actually, come to think of it, so is my love of Renay Zamora and Sweet Face Cakes.

But I never tire of any of these elements, or of Renay and her beautiful work.

Renay tells me a lovely story about this cake.  She and the mother of the bride had a rather random connection.  They had served on their church’s worship team, but hadn’t seen each other in years; however, they recognized one another immediately when they met at Read More

Beehive Wedding Cake

Beehive Cake

Did you know that beehives often symbolize industry, harmony, and order?  Well, if that be so, then we think using a beehive as a symbol for marriage is to get off on exactly the right foot.  After all, marriage takes work, and harmony makes it all the better, yes?

Paige and Justin, our bride and groom whose Read More
