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 must express some thanks to this writer for bailing me out of this situation. Because of researching throughout the the net and getting strategies which are not productive, I believed my entire life was over. Being alive without the presence of approaches to the difficulties you've solved all through this article content is a crucial case, and the kind that might have in a wrong way affected my career if I had not discovered your website. Your personal knowledge and kindness in playing with every aspect was helpful. I'm not sure what I would have done if I had not come upon such a step like this. It's possible to at this point relish my future. Thanks a lot so much for the expert and amazing guide. I will not be reluctant to propose the blog to anybody who needs and wants recommendations about this situation.

My spouse and i ended up being absolutely comfortable when Louis could round up his basic research using the precious recommendations he was given out of the site. It's not at all simplistic to just continually be giving away steps that others may have been trying to sell. And we also grasp we've got the website owner to be grateful to because of that. These explanations you've made, the straightforward website navigation, the friendships you can help promote - it's got many sensational, and it's really making our son in addition to us reckon that this matter is excellent, which is certainly exceedingly indispensable. Thanks for the whole thing!
