Gold and Ivory 50th Wedding Anniversary Cake
A square three tier ivory cake with gold accents for a 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration at Above Restaurant in South Orange NJ.
The cake is French Vanilla with Hazelnut and Cappuccino cream fillings. It is decorated with golden fondant pearls, ivory drapes, golden roses and looped bows on top. We included a framed edible image from the couple's original wedding cake cutting ceremony.
The gold accents took time but are worth the effort to achieve a fine touch for such a special occasion. I used an edible gold lustre dust and dipped a small amount of alcohol on the brush to create a golden paint.

Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer Can Cake
This weekend I was working on a Groom's cake that was a giant replica of a Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer can. The main part of the label, with its ribbons and all the letters are cut from fondant, not forgetting the ring pull on top. The other lettering and leaves from the logo are all painstakingly painted by hand, and they all had to be repeated on the reverse side. Very pleased how it turned out.
Inside is a three tier Peanut butter cake with amaretto moccha filling. This cake was delivered to a wedding reception at The Wilshire Grand Hotel in West Orange NJ.
