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 must show some thanks to the writer for bailing me out of this type of situation. Right after searching throughout the internet and finding proposals which were not helpful, I figured my life was over. Being alive devoid of the approaches to the difficulties you have resolved by way of your site is a critical case, as well as those that might have in a wrong way damaged my entire career if I hadn't come across your site. Your actual capability and kindness in taking care of a lot of stuff was precious. I am not sure what I would've done if I hadn't come upon such a solution like this. I'm able to at this time relish my future. Thanks a lot so much for the professional and amazing help. I won't hesitate to recommend your site to anyone who requires recommendations about this subject matter.

My husband and i have been really excited that Emmanuel could complete his preliminary research out of the ideas he acquired from your own blog. It's not at all simplistic just to continually be offering tips and tricks which many people may have been selling. So we fully understand we've got the writer to be grateful to because of that. All of the illustrations you've made, the easy blog navigation, the friendships your site make it easier to foster - it's got most wonderful, and it's aiding our son and us believe that this concept is satisfying, and that's quite indispensable. Thank you for all the pieces!

I have to show some appreciation to this writer for rescuing me from this particular circumstance. As a result of surfing around throughout the world-wide-web and meeting methods that were not helpful, I assumed my entire life was gone. Existing without the strategies to the issues you have sorted out as a result of this guide is a critical case, and ones which could have badly affected my career if I had not come across the website. That expertise and kindness in controlling every item was very helpful. I don't know what I would've done if I hadn't encountered such a solution like this. I am able to at this moment relish my future. Thanks very much for this impressive and results-oriented help. I won't be reluctant to endorse your web page to any person who would need guide about this issue.
