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 simply wanted to appreciate you all over again. I'm not certain the things that I would have achieved without the entire tips provided by you concerning such a industry. It previously was a very terrifying scenario in my position, however , taking note of a new professional strategy you managed it forced me to weep over delight. I will be happier for the support and then pray you realize what a great job that you're accomplishing instructing other individuals with the aid of your website. I know that you've never got to know any of us.

I want to express my thanks to the writer just for rescuing me from this particular matter. As a result of surfing through the internet and coming across ideas which were not helpful, I believed my life was done. Being alive devoid of the strategies to the difficulties you have resolved through the guide is a critical case, as well as the kind which might have badly damaged my career if I hadn't come across your web site. Your understanding and kindness in dealing with all the things was useful. I am not sure what I would've done if I hadn't discovered such a solution like this. I'm able to at this moment relish my future. Thank you very much for your high quality and effective guide. I will not hesitate to endorse your blog to any person who will need assistance about this matter.
