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 spouse and i got delighted when Peter managed to conclude his inquiry out of the ideas he discovered using your weblog. It's not at all simplistic to just continually be offering procedures other people have been selling. And we figure out we need you to thank for that. The entire illustrations you've made, the easy web site menu, the friendships your site help promote - it is most awesome, and it's really making our son and our family consider that the concept is pleasurable, which is highly fundamental. Many thanks for the whole lot!

The ladies ended up absolutely warmed to learn all of them and already have unquestionably been enjoying those things. I appreciate you for being well considerate as well as for picking out this kind of very good guides millions of individuals are really wanting to learn about. Our own sincere apologies for not expressing gratitude to sooner.

I would like to express thanks to this writer for rescuing me from this particular matter. As a result of looking through the search engines and seeing solutions which were not helpful, I was thinking my entire life was done. Existing devoid of the solutions to the difficulties you have resolved all through the guide is a critical case, and the kind that would have in a wrong way affected my entire career if I hadn't noticed your blog post. Your talents and kindness in handling every item was helpful. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not come across such a solution like this. It's possible to at this moment look forward to my future. Thank you very much for the specialized and result oriented guide. I will not think twice to recommend your web blog to any person who should receive direction about this subject.
