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 want to express some thanks to you just for rescuing me from this type of trouble. As a result of surfing throughout the the net and meeting basics that were not helpful, I figured my entire life was over.

That natural talent and kindness in dealing with all the details was vital. I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't come upon such a point like this.

I would like to show some appreciation to you for bailing me out of this particular scenario. Right after searching throughout the world wide web and meeting tips which were not powerful, I was thinking my entire life was done. Living devoid of the strategies to the problems you have sorted out by means of your good post is a critical case, and ones which might have badly affected my entire career if I had not come across your blog. Your know-how and kindness in taking care of all areas was priceless. I'm not sure what I would've done if I hadn't come upon such a subject like this. I am able to at this moment look forward to my future. Thank you very much for your reliable and effective guide. I will not hesitate to recommend your web page to any individual who should get tips about this area.
