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! ;)

Many thanks for being so accommodating and then for making a choice on some beneficial issues millions of individuals are really desirous to be informed on. My personal sincere regret for not saying thanks to sooner.

Hi, I recently came to the CS Store - Cheap Software Store.
They sell OEM Microsoft software, prices are actually low, I read reviews and decided to buy Windows 7 Ultimate, the price difference with the official website is 25%!!! Tell us, do you think this is a good buy?
can you download a office standard 2019 license

The service I received today is the reason why I will always stay with CSShop. Thanks to the representative's patience and excellent customer service skills, we were finally able to solve the problems with the help of numerous phone calls and chats. Thank you for your help with this excellent customer service!

I would like to express my appreciation to you for rescuing me from this crisis. Right after checking throughout the world wide web and finding tricks which were not beneficial, I assumed my entire life was well over. Living devoid of the approaches to the difficulties you have solved by way of the posting is a crucial case, as well as those which might have in a wrong way damaged my entire career if I had not noticed the website. That understanding and kindness in controlling almost everything was invaluable. I am not sure what I would've done if I had not come upon such a subject like this. It's possible to at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time so much for this expert and amazing guide. I won't hesitate to recommend the sites to anyone who needs direction about this topic.
