I'm so excited about today's post! This fall I had the chance to make a wedding cake for one of my really good friends from high school. I've know Chanse, the groom since kindergarten, and he will always have a special place in my heart (he was my first kiss! lol) and his wife Kinzee is a total sweetheart. I was super excited when I heard they were tying the knot, and even more so when they approached me about making their cake! Especially when I heard what they had in mind. Black and white is one of my favorite color combinations for a wedding, it's so classy and elegant. Deep eggplant purple and bright green add a pop of color and lend a little fun. Damask was their pattern of choice, and that was basically my only guideline for the cake. I think it's my favorite cake to date!
Not to toot my own horn, but I love it!
I made the ruffled flower, with little green leaves the only pop of color on the cake. You can't really tell from the picture, but the flower is liberally dusted with edible sparkle
The happy couple cutting the cake! Don't they look fantastic together?
This is when I extra-specially love my job. Making cake for strangers, and seeing their excitement is def rewarding. But making cake for friends, especially a couple as sweet as this one, on one of the most important days they'll share together makes me warm and fuzzy inside. There's nothing more fulfilling.
