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 and also my guys were found to be taking note of the excellent tactics located on your web site and so before long I had an awful feeling I never expressed respect to the web blog owner for them. All the women are actually absolutely thrilled to learn all of them and have actually been having fun with them. Thank you for genuinely well helpful and for having this sort of quality guides most people are really needing to learn about. My honest apologies for not saying thanks to earlier.

I would like to show some appreciation to you for bailing me out of this type of challenge. Just after searching throughout the internet and getting views which were not powerful, I figured my life was over. Existing without the answers to the problems you've sorted out through your main guide is a serious case, and the kind that would have in a negative way damaged my entire career if I had not noticed your web site. Your actual competence and kindness in touching all the pieces was vital. I don't know what I would've done if I had not encountered such a solution like this. I can also now look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time very much for this high quality and result oriented help. I will not hesitate to endorse your web blog to anyone who should get recommendations on this area.
