Re-inventing a Classic

Posted on August 3, 2017 at 12:20 AM

This past weekend we presented Carol and Raul's wedding cake at the Clinton Town Hall in Clinton, Massachusetts. Our lovely bride Carol is very traditional and wanted to have an old-school wedding cake with separate tiers, and fountains. Sometimes making classic cakes can feel a bit dated but I was up for the challenge. Carol is young and vibrant so I wanted to highlight her youth by adding a modern twist to her vision.


I decided to give it a fresh look by adding ruffles emulating the wedding dress, and gilded decorations. The touch of gold made the cake look regal and timeless. The bride also wanted to highlight her Caribbean roots by having bright flowers. I added white lilies and coral roses with touches of champagne spray roses. To add to the tropical theme, the bride and groom selected for cake flavors Passion Fruit, Morir Soñando (orange cream) and Pina Colada.

Now let's talk about the size of this cake. Holy macaroni! it's huge! Let's go over all it went in to create this cake:

For this 250 servings cake I used 156 eggs, 14 lbs of flour, 18 lbs of butter, 24 lbs of sugar, 15 lbs of fondant and about 10 grams of edible gold dust (believe me, that's a lot of gold). It took 45 hours to complete, 1.5 hours to deliver and 1.5 hours to set up at the venue. 


After all was said and done, I think I accomplished what I set out to do, create a breathtaking, classic, and timeless centerpiece for a delightful couple who celebrated their love in from of all their family and friends, and I couldn't be more proud. Mission Accomplished! ;)

My wife and i ended up being very fulfilled when Emmanuel managed to complete his web research by way of the ideas he received through the site. It is now and again perplexing to just be releasing hints that some others might have been trying to sell. And we also know we've got the website owner to appreciate because of that. These explanations you made, the straightforward blog menu, the friendships you help to create - it's many remarkable, and it's really facilitating our son and us do think this issue is thrilling, which is truly fundamental. Thank you for the whole thing!

I wish to show my thanks to this writer just for rescuing me from this type of instance. After checking throughout the world-wide-web and coming across things which were not beneficial, I figured my life was done. Being alive minus the strategies to the problems you've resolved by means of this post is a crucial case, as well as the ones which could have in a wrong way damaged my career if I hadn't come across the website. Your actual know-how and kindness in controlling all areas was very useful. I don't know what I would have done if I had not discovered such a subject like this. I can also at this time look forward to my future. Thanks a lot very much for your professional and result oriented help. I won't be reluctant to refer the blog to anybody who should get care about this problem.
