Leaves, leaves, leaves!

The Fall/Winter issue of The Knot Magazine features a cake of ours that is simply decorated with mod leaf outlines.  Two tones of green are all you need for this contemporary and eco-designed cake. 

The cake made it on the Editor's Letter page too :)

Here's a close up!

Brides: Haute and Spicy

Haute and Spicyyy.  The November issue of Brides Magazine takes you through the story of a couple, Annika and Derek, who take an exotic two week trip to the other side of the world and come back with a handful of inspiration for their upcoming wedding.  Their set-up is complete with Balinese linens, Thai street food on sticks, a white Indian sari,...and a cardamom-cinnamon cake with apricot filling, which we made!  The flavors, colors, and patterns of this 5-tier cake are reminiscent of Moroccan patterns.

 

 

Grey and Lime

For some reason, I love working with variations of grey.  When this brooklyn bride told me she was looking for a cake decorated in grey and lime green I was so thrilled!  I covered this two tier cake with individually painted and scored fluted-round circles.  Then I added a small tier in between that was wrapped in lime green to give it a pop of color.  Finally, sitting on top was a bouquet of purple centered calla lilies.  It's the first time I've seen such an amazing variation of this flower.  The bride sent us this nice photo of the cake before it was cut and devoured :)

 

While I was setting up the cake and adding flowers to the top, the flower girl came up to me and asked me if she could have some :)

Bridal Guide

The current issue of Bridal Guide features our textured pinwheel cake in hues of white, cream, and ivory in a story called "Whiten Up."

"Textured gumpaste pinwheels add a playful yet posh punch to this three-tiered vanilla confection, filled with delicious mocha buttercream."

Moustache

Moustaches have recently become such a popular prop for fabulously silly wedding photos.  They are everywhere!  So naturally someone asked us to make moustache cookies for their wedding...how cute!

 

I saw this picture of a bride and her bridesmaids on Wedding Bee if you are curious about the craze I'm talking about :)
