Wedding Cake

Last weekend I was hired to make a wedding cake.  With all the different changes I’ve seen at weddings lately not everyone is choosing to go with a cake, but Grandma (to the groom) wanted to “gift” them with a personal one, feeling it wouldn’t be right to have a wedding without a cake.  They got my name from a friend at our church who saw my photo album at our silent auction recently.  With one weeks notice and only getting their request over the phone…

• All white with a…
• Hint of purple and a…
• Sprig of silver.

This is what I came up with… The ‘sprig’ of silver is the butterfly bouquet pick and the ‘hint’ of purple is very much a ‘hint’ as I brushed shimmer dust on the bow, (it showed up much better in person)  but you can see I then painted some purple on the bows on the bottom layer.   I was so thankful that the mother of the groom loved it when she picked it up.  WHEW!!

So For Now…
