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'm commenting to let you understand what a terrific encounter my cousin's princess went through using your web site. She noticed many details, which include what it's like to have an amazing coaching style to let many others very easily learn about specific very confusing matters. You truly exceeded my expectations. Thanks for coming up with those invaluable, dependable, revealing and cool tips on the topic to Lizeth.

I would like to express appreciation to you just for bailing me out of such a predicament. Just after scouting throughout the world-wide-web and getting thoughts which were not pleasant, I believed my entire life was well over. Living minus the solutions to the issues you've sorted out through the post is a crucial case, as well as the ones that could have adversely damaged my entire career if I had not encountered your web site. Your actual ability and kindness in dealing with all the pieces was valuable. I am not sure what I would have done if I had not encountered such a solution like this. I'm able to at this point look forward to my future. Thanks for your time very much for your impressive and amazing help. I will not hesitate to refer the website to any person who will need recommendations about this subject.

My husband and i have been glad Jordan could finish off his investigation from the precious recommendations he discovered out of the web pages. It's not at all simplistic to simply continually be freely giving guides which most people may have been making money from. We see we now have the blog owner to give thanks to for that. The specific illustrations you have made, the easy blog menu, the relationships you help to engender - it's mostly great, and it's really leading our son and the family consider that this issue is awesome, which is certainly quite indispensable. Thanks for everything!

I and also my guys have already been reading through the best key points located on your website and then all of the sudden got a horrible suspicion I never thanked the web blog owner for those tips. Most of the boys are already absolutely very interested to learn them and already have in truth been making the most of these things. We appreciate you getting simply helpful and then for figuring out this form of exceptional subject matter millions of individuals are really needing to be aware of. Our own sincere apologies for not expressing gratitude to you sooner.

I as well as my friends were actually studying the nice techniques from your web page then instantly I got a horrible feeling I had not thanked the website owner for those secrets. All of the women became absolutely passionate to see all of them and already have in reality been enjoying these things. Thanks for actually being very thoughtful and then for using variety of smart resources most people are really desperate to learn about. Our honest apologies for not expressing appreciation to you earlier.
