September 2012 - D&G groom's cake

D&G Groom's cake  9.14.12

 This has to be my favorite cake I've made so far for a few reasons. 

1. It was very challenging. I hand cut each piece of the crest out of sugar sheets, and painted edible glitter on each one. I also hand cut out all of the stripes out of sugar sheets & sprayed them with edible gold mist. Not to mention the 6 layers of cake...

2. Derrick has been one of my best friends for years. When he asked me to make this groom's cake for him, I was honored. I couldn't imagine giving him any less than perfection. I put a lot of time and love into this cake, and I loved every second of it.

3. The reaction I got from the grooms was priceless. I'll never forget their faces! It still makes me tear up thinking of how happy this cake made them.

 I designed the cake to match the crest they had designed for their wedding invitations. I also used gold and white to stay with the color theme of the wedding.

 The happy couple!

 It was a huge surprise to them that I made the cake into a rainbow! They were so shocked - they LOVED it! 

Congratulations to a couple of the most wonderful people I know!
