The Other Royal Wedding…Congratulations Sapna and Damian!

So while watching Will and Kate tie the knot was a big deal for everyone last week. In our house, the big wedding to celebrate is my best friend Sapna’s wedding to her man Damian next week. I couldn’t be more excited to wish them the absolute best. Unfortunately I can’t celebrate it with them as I’m in the middle of my immigration application process and therefore can’t leave the USA. Sucks it does!

When their wedding was going to be in Toronto and I was still living in Ottawa, I was going to make their cake. Now they are getting married in Tulum, Mexico on May 9th and so I decided to mock up a cake for them so we here can celebrate with them! Now you’re probably asking why I would do this? And I say, what’s a wedding party without a cake? Sapna had always told me she wanted peonies and roses on her cake. So for you Sapna, I give you your wedding cake…

Off-set layers with “pearl” borders and gumpaste peonies and roses!

The cake itself, if served at the actual wedding, would have been one layer chocolate sponge with chocolate ganache, second layer vanilla sponge with lemon custard and the top layer would be gluten free sponge with strawberries and cream. Gluten free? Well for the bride, of course. Sadly the bride can’t eat gluten and one must eat the cake at your own wedding.

Sapna and Damian leave for their week of fun and frivolity with friends and family on Tuesday and so I’m posting this today so they can see their cake. I’m sure the cake at the actual wedding will be nice, but it won’t be made with love!

Sapna and Damian you are the two of the best people I know and I wish you health, happiness and love!

That’s me with my besty Sapna!

Thanks for looking!

I'm sharing this on:

Ron & Nicole's Wedding Cake

The cake is chocolate sponge with a dark chocolate framboise ganache filling. White fondant with royal icing scroll work and a red ribbon accent. The flowers are red and white gum paste roses.

Allison's Wedding Cake

I was asked by a co-worker friend to make her wedding cake and I dropped it off today. The cake is a lemon sponge with strawberries and cream filling, fondant icing with butter cream scroll work and a ribbon.

Demo for Allison

Here is the tester cake I made for Allison for her upcoming nuptuals. It's vanilla cake with strawberries and cream filling, lemon fondant and buttercream scroll work. When I dropped it off, she was really excited! I'm pretty proud of it too!

Playing with Fondant

I'm making a friend's wedding cake in a couple weeks and I thought I'd play with fondant. The little cakes are white cake with buttercream filling and fondant icing. The piping is coloured buttercream. The larger cake is a fake 8 inch with fondant and the top is a white cake with buttercream filling and fondant icing. I had ribbon around and used white buttercream piping. Practice makes perfect, so the actual cake should look fab!

Wedding Cakes

You’ve got the dress and the venue, now it’s time for the cake. Sometimes this choice is harder than the others, but why? The cake should represent both the bride and the groom and be edible. Call me and we can make the tough choices together!

Custom Cakes

Creating a cake for that special occasion doesn’t have to be agonizing. Give me a call and we can discuss your needs and design options. My wedding cake
