Raspberry Red Bows Engagement Cake

A generous mom in Short Hills NJ ordered this three tier almond cake with Madagascar vanilla bean filling to surprise her son and future bride at their Engagement party.

The bottom tier is a gift box in raspberry colored fondant with a lid in an embossed floral design. A second square tier has fondant hearts, while the round third tier has stripes and a white drape wavy lid, topped with a bunch of red fondant bows and several other large bows around the cake.

Ivory Wedding Cake with Brush Embroidery

An ivory colored fondant wedding cake with three square tiers and decorated with floral design brush embroidery in white.

Starting by tracing a pattern onto the fondant, then with royal icing I pipe around the pattern towards the center of the design. Before this outline is dry I brush the outline with a damp paintbrush. Once it is dry I go back and pipe in veins on each of the leaves. It's a long process, requiring a steady hand, but just love the final effect.

Around the base of each tier I placed a string of small sugar pearls. The cake sits on a fondant covered cake board which has crystal feet.

Gift Box with Black and White Ribbons

We created a two tier black and white cake for a bridal shower in Randolph NJ. Chocolate cake with Oreo Cream filling is the perennial favorite of this customer.

One tier is embossed with a floral design and the second tier is piped in Cornelli Lace. The two gift boxes are stacked, tied with a black fondant ribbon and topped with a display of black and white bows.
