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 must show my appreciation to this writer for bailing me out of this type of circumstance. Because of looking out through the online world and meeting principles that were not productive, I figured my life was gone. Living minus the answers to the problems you have solved all through this guide is a critical case, and the kind which might have badly damaged my entire career if I had not discovered the blog. Your skills and kindness in handling every item was valuable. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not encountered such a thing like this. I am able to now look forward to my future. Thank you so much for your high quality and effective help. I will not think twice to endorse the blog to any person who needs and wants direction about this subject matter.

I needed to draft you one little bit of remark to finally give thanks once again for the amazing principles you have provided at this time. This is really extremely generous with you giving publicly all that most people could have made available for an electronic book to make some cash for their own end, specifically given that you could possibly have tried it if you ever considered necessary. These concepts as well acted like a fantastic way to understand that many people have the identical keenness the same as my own to find out a great deal more when considering this condition. I'm certain there are thousands of more enjoyable times up front for many who browse through your site.

I simply desired to thank you very much once more. I'm not certain the things that I could possibly have undertaken in the absence of the pointers discussed by you about that topic. It was the hard condition for me, however , taking a look at a well-written strategy you treated the issue took me to cry over fulfillment. I'm just thankful for the service and then hope that you really know what an amazing job your are carrying out training people via a blog. Probably you've never met all of us.
