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 wish to express my thanks to the writer for rescuing me from such a challenge. Just after surfing through the search engines and finding concepts that were not productive, I was thinking my entire life was gone. Living devoid of the strategies to the problems you have sorted out through this article content is a serious case, and those which might have adversely damaged my career if I hadn't come across the website. Your actual competence and kindness in touching all the stuff was priceless. I am not sure what I would've done if I hadn't come across such a subject like this. I can now relish my future. Thanks for your time so much for this reliable and results-oriented help. I won't be reluctant to suggest your blog to anyone who wants and needs guide about this issue.

I as well as my buddies appeared to be studying the good advice located on your site and then immediately developed a terrible feeling I had not expressed respect to the web site owner for those strategies. My young men were definitely thrilled to learn them and have now definitely been loving these things. Thanks for being well accommodating and also for picking out this kind of important resources most people are really needing to know about. My very own honest apologies for not saying thanks to sooner.
