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 have to express some appreciation to you for bailing me out of this particular issue. After scouting through the world-wide-web and seeing views which were not pleasant, I thought my life was well over. Existing minus the answers to the difficulties you have fixed as a result of your main review is a critical case, and the kind that would have in a wrong way damaged my career if I had not discovered your blog post. Your good understanding and kindness in taking care of the whole thing was tremendous. I'm not sure what I would have done if I had not come upon such a thing like this. I can at this time look forward to my future. Thank you very much for the impressive and sensible guide. I won't think twice to propose your site to anybody who should receive recommendations on this matter.

I must show some thanks to the writer just for rescuing me from this crisis. After checking through the online world and meeting methods that were not helpful, I believed my life was over. Living without the presence of strategies to the problems you've solved by way of this blog post is a crucial case, and ones that might have in a negative way damaged my entire career if I hadn't noticed your web site. Your skills and kindness in dealing with a lot of things was useful. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not discovered such a stuff like this. I'm able to at this point look ahead to my future. Thank you very much for your skilled and effective guide. I won't be reluctant to propose your web blog to anybody who would like recommendations on this subject.
