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! ![]()

But there are some advantages to having the tissues removed. Those tissues are much less prone to infection.
More than 90 percent of transplants are unsuccessful, Dr. Fonseca said, but about one out of every four people has a successful transplant.
"To me, when it comes to this type of procedure it's great," he said.
The procedure also was safer than having a needle in the joint.
The most common complications related to donor-derived bone marrow stem cells were infection and scarring of the skin, said Dr. Rachael Gifford, director of the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center's Division of Bone Regenerative Medicine at The Cancer Center of South Boston Hospital.

"I thought (the article) was good and I like it. I agree with that.
"But if I had to keep all that, I wouldn't. The story wasn't good, the story was true, that was what they said."
media_camera Andrew Gillett, who took a bus to Canberra to help his wife Anna get her foot in the door at Gold Coast, has been in Brisbane for Christmas dinner to offer support to some of the homeless.
Gillett said he had given the bus driver a chance to get himself into a clean and safe position and had spent a considerable amount of money on food and clothing.
"I thought the article was good and I like it, but if I had to keep all that, I wouldn't, because it's been a disaster," he said.

However, Gillett said the article did not go far enough to make his community realise the impact homelessness has on people's lives.
"I thought it was about the people who stayed in the hostels and were happy there and some of the issues that have arisen out of homelessness in this city," he said.
"But it doesn't mention any of those stories. It's just that they left, they had gone to Melbourne."
He said the only area where it did go far was in the treatment of those who could be referred to the government or the Salvation Army.
"So I think when you talk about people staying in their hostels, those are very, very difficult to find, to have those people referred to them and to make sure their problems are solved, because you don't really know what is happening to your home.
"You don't know where they are and you don't know how long they are there."

In a statement, a Gold Coast Salvation Army spokesman said: "These types of stories are not uncommon but as with all public service advertisements there was no mention of those matters.
