Utah Wedding Cakes -- Presents and Calla Lilies



Last week I had 2 wedding cake orders, one was a castle cake and I forgot to take a picture of it, but here is the other one. I loved making this cake. I made the bow out of gumpaste and painted it with gold luster dust, and the calla lilies are all hand made from gumpaste.

Utah Wedding Cakes --Martha

This cake is covered in fondant pleats and ribbon lilies. It was a hard one to do, I think I stripped off the fondant 3 times before I got it to look the way I wanted, but I was really happy with the end result, even if I spent 3x as much time on it than I'd planned :) I love getting to do cakes like this that are different than the norm. So brides bring me your fun ideas! There are so many things that can be done with fondant, lets make you a fabulous cake too!

Utah Wedding Cakes -- Chocolate Swirl



Loved making this cake! It was a new technique for me with the fondant swirl inlay on the chocolate fondant, but it was so much easier to do than I had imagined and I was really happy with how it turned out. The top is open and filled with chocolate shavings.

Utah Wedding Cakes -- Jessica




Jessica came to me with a a file dedicated just to her cake. She had the colors and pictures of ideas she liked, and was so excited about it. Working with her was a blast. I love when brides get so involved in the designing, it's so much fun to be able to work together and create a cake that is just what she is imagining.

Utah Wedding Cakes -- Shells and Pearls

























Remember this cake? This was the very first wedding cake I ever made. When we had our consult the bride brought me a picture of a beautiful Martha Stewart cake and I was scared to death just hoping I would be able to pull it off. Looking back now it's so funny to think about how stressed I was with every single detail and how many hours I spent rolling out each individual pearl by hand. Soon after I learned that they make molds that can make a string of pearls just like those!
Each square cake is covered in ivory fondant and has hand made pearls and chocolate shells. Then the cakes are sprinkled with sanding sugar to resemble real sand. I'll never forget how brave this bride was trusting her wedding cake to a beginning decorator. Thank you Kristine for believing in me and giving me a chance! I was beyond excited when we got it all set up and it turned out so beautifully and the bride loved it. This really is the best job ever.

Utah Wedding Cakes -- Chocolate and Ivory

























This cake was designed by the bride herself. She knew exactly what she wanted and had sketched it all out before we even met. The flowers are all made from chocolate clay and the cake is covered in ivory and chocolate fondants. Each flower and pearl were made by hand. It was such a beautiful and unique cake.

Utah Wedding Cakes -- Stephanie


This cake was so fun to make!! It took hours and hours rolling out each piece of the lattice by hand and placing on the cake, but it was so worth it! One of my favorites to date by far.

Utah Wedding Cakes -- Chocolate



Here is the Wedding Cake from the same wedding as below. I think I'd like it without the bow better, but it still turned out beautiful. Congrats again to Spencer and Mara!!!

Utah Wedding Cakes -- White Chocolate Petals

This cake was done for Janae, she was the funnest bride to work with. I loved meeting with her and her fiance to plan the perfect cake for her wedding. The wedding cake flavor is Turtle Cheesecake and it is covered in white chocolate petals. The reception was held at the Springville Arts Museum and it was gorgeous! Thanks for letting me be a part of your special day Janae!
