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 got contented when Ervin could finish off his investigations from your ideas he got from your own weblog.

I not to mention my buddies ended up digesting the excellent solutions located on your site and then all of the sudden developed a horrible suspicion I had not thanked the web site owner for those secrets. The men were absolutely stimulated to study them and already have in fact been tapping into them. Thank you for being indeed thoughtful and for finding varieties of good tips millions of individuals are really needing to learn about. My very own honest regret for not saying thanks to earlier.

Needed to draft you this bit of note so as to say thanks a lot over again regarding the breathtaking strategies you have contributed on this page. This is quite strangely open-handed of you to allow freely what exactly a number of us might have advertised for an e book to generate some money on their own, mostly considering that you could have done it in case you wanted. Those principles additionally served to become fantastic way to be certain that most people have a similar eagerness like my own to know a lot more with regard to this problem. I believe there are numerous more pleasant instances in the future for many who scan your website.
