Blue Roses Wedding


Blue roses adorn this 6" cake for Mike and Julie's wedding! This cake was made for the cake cutting ceremony and is adorned with handmade gumpaste roses and silver band at the base to match the wedding colors. A sheet cake was made to serve the guests which had matching roses and fondant plaque. Congratulations to the newly weds!

Purple Hydrangea Wedding Cake



Inspired by the bride's flowers and colors for her wedding, this 3-tiered display wedding cake features cream colored fondant layers with purple fondant ribbon at each base, royal icing painted swirls, and a sugar hydrangea, stephanotis, and rose bouquet topper at the top tier.

A display cake means it is made with a styrofoam base without any cake. Display cakes are a great idea for good photo ops and the cake designer has more time to work on the design since there is no need to worry about the cake going bad! It is also a lot easy to transport and can sit out in hot weather and not melt!

I also made a matching 6" cake for the bride and groom to cut into for the cake cutting ceremony. Additional sheet cakes were made to serve all the guests. The cakes were deep chocolate cake w/chocolate buttercream, and white cake w/lemon cream cheese frosting.

Congratulations to the lovely bride Allison and Brad!

It was a pleasure working with her and she has helped to raise 187 meals for Food4Africa!

The Busy Bee in Spring

A 3 tiered topsy-turvy cake adorned with handmade gumpaste flowers including: anenomes, roses, chrysanthemums, daisies, and small 5 petal blossoms. A gumpaste bee has flown through the garden and is hanging out at the top!

This cake is a dummy cake, meaning the tiers are actually made out of styrofoam pieces. This is great for cakes that need to be displayed for long hours, will be outside in hot weather, as well as for weddings (with a smaller cake to cut into for photos and cakes in the back to be served to the guests.)

Here is a photo of the sketch, the bare pieces, and finished cake! This was a project made by myself and Jovan Culpepper.
