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 show appreciation to you just for bailing me out of such a dilemma. After searching through the the web and seeing ideas which were not productive, I thought my life was gone. Living devoid of the answers to the difficulties you've fixed as a result of this review is a crucial case, as well as the ones that could have in a wrong way affected my career if I hadn't discovered your web site. That natural talent and kindness in dealing with everything was very helpful. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't discovered such a subject like this. I can at this point look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time so much for the reliable and effective guide. I won't think twice to refer your blog to anybody who wants and needs care on this problem.

Needed to post you that very little remark to help give many thanks as before on the amazing advice you've featured at this time. It is so seriously open-handed with you in giving freely what a lot of people would've sold as an e book to get some cash on their own, certainly considering the fact that you might have done it if you desired. These secrets likewise acted to be the easy way to recognize that other people online have a similar desire just as mine to see whole lot more in respect of this matter. I'm sure there are a lot more pleasurable periods up front for those who see your website.
