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 have to express thanks to the writer for rescuing me from such a dilemma. As a result of surfing through the internet and obtaining advice which are not pleasant, I assumed my entire life was well over. Living devoid of the strategies to the issues you've solved as a result of your main website is a crucial case, as well as ones which could have adversely damaged my career if I hadn't discovered your web page. Your own capability and kindness in taking care of almost everything was vital. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not come upon such a thing like this. I am able to at this point relish my future. Thank you so much for your expert and result oriented help. I won't be reluctant to suggest the blog to anyone who wants and needs counselling on this situation.

I must express my thanks to you for bailing me out of this type of situation. After browsing throughout the the net and meeting techniques which are not productive, I assumed my life was gone. Being alive devoid of the approaches to the issues you have fixed by way of the short article is a serious case, and those that would have negatively damaged my entire career if I had not encountered your web page. Your training and kindness in handling all the stuff was invaluable. I'm not sure what I would have done if I had not discovered such a subject like this. I can at this moment look forward to my future. Thanks a lot very much for the skilled and result oriented guide. I won't hesitate to refer your web site to any individual who should have tips on this issue.
