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! ;)

I wish to show some appreciation to you just for bailing me out of such a problem. As a result of searching through the the net and obtaining views which are not beneficial, I was thinking my entire life was done. Existing without the presence of approaches to the difficulties you've resolved as a result of your website is a serious case, and the kind that would have negatively affected my entire career if I had not encountered your web blog. That knowledge and kindness in maneuvering all the stuff was useful. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not discovered such a thing like this. It's possible to at this time relish my future. Thanks for your time so much for your expert and results-oriented help. I will not hesitate to endorse your site to any individual who requires guidelines about this matter.

I must show my appreciation to the writer just for bailing me out of this type of issue. As a result of researching through the online world and finding basics which were not productive, I figured my life was over. Living without the presence of solutions to the issues you've sorted out by means of your good site is a crucial case, and those that would have negatively affected my career if I hadn't encountered the blog. Your ability and kindness in controlling all things was valuable. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not discovered such a thing like this. I'm able to now look ahead to my future. Thanks a lot very much for the reliable and results-oriented guide. I will not be reluctant to suggest the website to any individual who needs direction on this issue.

I precisely desired to thank you very much yet again. I do not know the things that I might have followed in the absence of the strategies shown by you over that area of interest. It seemed to be a depressing dilemma in my opinion, but encountering the professional avenue you processed it made me to weep over contentment. I am happier for this support as well as hope that you find out what a great job you have been carrying out educating others using your webpage. Probably you haven't got to know any of us.
