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 would like to express my thanks to you for rescuing me from this particular situation. As a result of surfing around through the search engines and getting recommendations which are not helpful, I believed my entire life was well over. Being alive without the presence of approaches to the issues you have fixed as a result of your good guide is a critical case, as well as those that would have in a wrong way damaged my entire career if I hadn't come across your website. Your personal know-how and kindness in touching all the pieces was excellent. I am not sure what I would have done if I hadn't encountered such a step like this. I am able to at this point look ahead to my future. Thanks a lot very much for your expert and result oriented guide. I won't think twice to propose your web site to any person who requires counselling about this issue.

I am writing to make you know of the magnificent discovery my friend's girl undergone viewing the blog.

You truly did more than people's expectations. I appreciate you for displaying the effective, trusted, revealing as well as easy tips about that topic to Janet.
