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 not to mention my guys came checking the best information on your web blog while quickly came up with an awful feeling I never thanked the blog owner for them. Those ladies came as a result glad to read through all of them and have in effect truly been taking advantage of them. Thanks for truly being very kind and then for considering such brilliant areas most people are really eager to discover. My very own honest regret for not expressing appreciation to sooner.

I must express some thanks to you just for bailing me out of this difficulty. After looking out throughout the the net and coming across things that were not pleasant, I believed my entire life was over. Existing without the answers to the difficulties you've resolved all through this short post is a critical case, as well as the ones that could have negatively damaged my entire career if I hadn't noticed your web page. Your competence and kindness in touching the whole lot was important. I'm not sure what I would have done if I had not come upon such a step like this. I can also at this point relish my future. Thanks so much for your impressive and amazing help. I won't think twice to propose the website to any individual who will need assistance about this subject.
