Getting Married to a Green Bay Fan



This beautiful cake is white cake with buttercream filling and frosting, topped with ribbon and fresh flowers.



The bride and groom's initials:




The groom's cake: white with buttercream.



The largest oval I could find wasn't big enough to get the 100 servings they were asking for, so I asked if I could supplement it with a smaller cake- something I think of when I think Green Bay and Wisconsin:



It all started with a cutting board. This is a cardboard cake circle covered with fondant, then painted with food colouring.





Then I added the "cheese". White cake with buttercream filling covered with fondant. I used food colouring to give it more depth.











Guaranteed to make a Packers fan happy!































Rose and Stephanotis Wedding Cake

This was my first wedding cake in a loooong time. I can't tell you how nervous I was. I fretted about everything- I redid the roses 3 times. The cake is yellow cake with whipped ganache filling, covered with buttercream. I also did gum paste for the first time- I figured I'd start out easy with the white stephanotis:


Which was good because I made 27 dozen of them!

50th Anniversary

I helped a nephew's wife make this for my in-law's 50th anniversary.

Purple Wedding


Fresh Flowers

I got to buy a new floating tiers set for this one- I guess this is the cake decorator's equivalent to power tools for men. I used fresh flowers and a basket weave on the side.

Ruffles

I helped a friend of mine do this one. We did it the day of the reception, which made for a very tense morning.

Wedding


Violets and roses.

Soccer


This was a groom's cake that I did.

Not All Wedding Cakes Are Tall

I did this cake for my sister-in-law. She had a very Victorian wedding dress, and I tried to reflect the romance of the era with ivy and roses that started out ivory and turned peach at the tops. The trellises attaching the cakes are made out of royal icing.

Snowflake Wedding

I really wish I had a digital camera for this one. I made royal icing snowflakes that were sprinkled with edible glitter. I LOVED this cake!

Country Wedding

This is one of the first wedding cakes I did. I really loved this one.
