Wedding cakes are designed to be put on display, but these edible masterpieces take exhibition to a whole new level. Like art, wedding cakes have humble beginnings. First there's the idea - a small spark of creativity that grows, one layer at a time, into a reception's culinary piece de resistance. Then, the reaction: a gush of oohs and aahs from riveted onlookers.
Anyone who has an emotional connection to a painting can look to it for ideas - you don't need to be an aficionado. Imagine a lemon cake which was frosted in meringue to echo the original work's draped fabric and finished with marzipan peaches and pears filled with nuts, dates, and figs.
Naturally, some works translate better than others. Often, you have a piece in mind, the key is to create a dessert that tastes as good as it looks. Don't make something that just appears to be art for art's sakes. Your cake should be beautiful and downright delicious, too!
Live and Love,
Rose

The wedding cake commands center-stage at the reception with the spotlight aglow when the bride and groom make the first cuts. It's such a highlight to see what theme is chosen. A bride may decide to commission a cake to resemble her wedding dress, and the delicate lace that adorns it can be a picture perfect match brought to life out of icing or fondant. The cake reveals the bride's passionate details as an eye-candy confection. A custom watercolor painting of your wedding cake is the perfect way to preserve its beauty even after the "topper" has been enjoyed for the first year anniversary.
