New Wedding Cake Designs

Friday, November 4th, 2011

I thought I would share some new cake designs we’ve done lately! Up first one of my favorites from this last summer. A peacock feather bohemian style head piece inspired the cake design. We made the cake head piece all out of sugar and then did a white on white pattern for the base of the cake to give it some texture.

I just love the color palette for this cake.

Up next an example of a romantic wedding cake with touches of blush pink and white sugar roses cascading up the front.

This cake is definitely more modern with a bold color and pattern on the base tier and then a sugar peony we colored silver.

This is one of my favorite all white on white wedding cakes…it’s so delicate and romantic looking!

This next cake was inspired by a cake design from The Caketress that one of my clients loved and then we put our own spin on it to incorporate her wedding style and design.

Last but not least a sampling of cakes to mimic the iconic “Cakes” painting by Wayne Thiebaud. Irene did a great job with all of these cakes and the client loved them!

Thanks so much for stopping by the blog! Definitely let us know which cake is your favorite!

Chevron Patterns & Lots of Succulents!

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

I have to say one of my favorite new trends that started this past year or two was the love of succulents and the chevron pattern! I am totally a clean, modern type of girl so this wedding is speaking my love language! I had the pleasure of working with the fabulously talented Carissa, from JL Designs yet again who did the amazing floral and event design. The wedding was held at the Luxe Hotel in Bel Air and LRS Event Planning helped the day come together beautifully! I love all the gorgeous photos Meg Perotti shot and can’t wait to work with her again!

For the wedding cake we incorporated a grey chevron pattern and then did a single sugar succulent on the top tier to keep with the simple, modern look of the wedding!

This has to be one of my favorite dessert set ups from last year. I love my new clear stands…they showcase the desserts perfectly!

Modern California Wedding

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

I was lucky enough to work on another fabulous wedding with some of my best friends! Gabriel Ryan Photographers shot the gorgeous images, Jesi Haack Design planned & designed it, and Carissa from JL Designs did the amazing florals. I love the modern look of everything with all the bright pops of colors.

Palm Springs Pool Party Photo Shoot

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

Have you ever wondered what a laid back, fun wedding in Palm Springs would look like!?! Well look no more…I had the pleasure of working with the team from Jesi Haack Design. Melanie headed it up and I think the shoot turned out fabulous! Make sure and check out the bottom of the post to see all the amazing vendors I worked with on this one! Carlie from Gabriel Ryan Photography took the perfect photos for us…thanks Carlie!

For the cake they wanted something really fun, bold, and different. Melanie threw out the idea of doing something with donuts and then I just ran with that idea. I absolutely love the “ombre” color trend right now so I thought I would tie that into the design too. I bought mini Krispy Kreme donuts and dipped them in different shades of orange icing and then put tiny white sprinkles on top. Overall I was pretty happy with the fun cake!

Carissa’s Space Invader Baby Shower

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

I am so excited to share this next baby shower with you since it is for one of my sweet wedding girlfriend’s, Carissa of JL Designs! I am beyond happy for Carissa and Brian as they start this next chapter in their lives and to celebrate we did an over-the-top baby shower for them! Carissa is having a little boy and loved the idea of a space invader themed shower so that is just what we gave her. I teamed up with a bunch of my talented wedding friends to put the shower together and you can check them all out at the end of the post!

Up first the dessert bar! We created robot cake pops, cupcakes with robot toppers, “asteroids” (white chocolate dipped donut holes), “flying saucers” (custom sugar cookies), and Kyong did a great Space Invader themed cake.
