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 show thanks to this writer just for bailing me out of this type of difficulty. Because of checking through the search engines and obtaining notions which were not beneficial, I figured my entire life was over. Living without the approaches to the issues you have sorted out as a result of your good article content is a serious case, as well as those that might have negatively affected my entire career if I had not encountered your blog post. Your capability and kindness in dealing with every part was very helpful. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not come across such a solution like this. I am able to at this point look ahead to my future. Thanks very much for the impressive and effective guide. I won't think twice to recommend your web site to any person who will need counselling about this subject matter.

My husband and i got absolutely more than happy John managed to complete his analysis using the ideas he grabbed through your web site. It's not at all simplistic to just possibly be giving away helpful hints that some others could have been selling. We already know we've got the writer to be grateful to for that. The entire explanations you've made, the straightforward website navigation, the relationships you make it possible to create - it's everything sensational, and it is helping our son and our family recognize that this theme is entertaining, which is certainly exceedingly fundamental. Thanks for all!
