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 the writer for bailing me out of this setting. After looking throughout the world wide web and coming across solutions that were not pleasant, I was thinking my life was done. Being alive without the presence of solutions to the issues you have resolved through this review is a crucial case, and those that could have in a negative way affected my entire career if I hadn't discovered your site. Your main know-how and kindness in maneuvering the whole thing was priceless. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not come across such a point like this. I can also at this time look ahead to my future. Thanks a lot so much for this high quality and sensible guide. I will not hesitate to refer your web page to any individual who wants and needs guidelines about this issue.

I as well as my buddies were reading through the excellent helpful hints located on your web blog while all of a sudden came up with an awful feeling I had not expressed respect to the website owner for those techniques. The young men ended up totally passionate to see all of them and have now certainly been having fun with these things. I appreciate you for really being simply considerate and also for picking this kind of nice things most people are really eager to be informed on. My personal honest regret for not expressing appreciation to sooner.

I must express my thanks to you just for bailing me out of this crisis. Just after researching throughout the the web and coming across tricks which were not beneficial, I thought my life was gone. Being alive without the solutions to the difficulties you've resolved through your guideline is a critical case, and the ones that could have in a negative way affected my career if I had not encountered the website. That mastery and kindness in controlling all areas was excellent. I don't know what I would've done if I had not encountered such a subject like this. I am able to at this time relish my future. Thank you so much for the impressive and results-oriented guide. I won't hesitate to suggest the sites to any individual who will need counselling on this subject matter.
