Seashell Wedding Cake

Seashells

I think getting married on the beach sounds so romantic, don’t you? As long as you don’t mind sand between your toes. That’s where this couple will say their vows. So, of course the cake calls for seashells.  Lavender/purple being the favorite color of the bride, I made white chocolate shells tinted with these colors with a few other colors for contrast, all brushed with pearl dust for a little shine and sparkle. My classic yellow butter cake with vanilla butter cream was the favorite choice. So, with Myrtle Beach S C as a destination for this cake, my wish for them, a beautiful weekend with good weather.

A Dolphin for Ella

22 Aug

Ella's Dolphin

I never know from year to year what cake design I’ll be doing for Ella’s cake. Ella and her Mother search out designs on the net, then send me a picture of something they like. I never do it exactly like the picture but I do use it for inspiration.  This year I’m doing a Dolphin or at least I tried to create one ( I think it turned out pretty good). The Dolphin is  piped with butter cream and the shells are white chocolate brushed with pearl dust for sparkle.  Cake flavor is marble with vanilla butter cream.
