Season's Wedding Cakes







Summer-This three hexagonal tier confection is dressed up with rolled, pale cantaloupe-colored fondant, white dots of royal icing and a cascade of individually applied sugar-dough orchids.




Spring-White fondant, green fondant ribbon and gumpaste hellebores dress up this two-tier confection of sour cream pound cake with blood orange buttercream filling.










Fall- A moist sour-cream chocolate cake is brushed with orange-flavored liqueur and layered with ganache and a slightly chunky, bittersweet orange marmalade. A final glaze of shiny ganache is poured on top. A chocolate cake is a nice break from tradition





Winter-This whimsical woodland, three-tier confection is covered in lavender rolled-fondant icing and delicate mushrooms and cattails made from sugar paste.

I must say that I'm not usually a fan of winter wedding (too cold)...but the winter themed wedding cake is very spectacular. Whoever designed that cake knew what they were doing. Very nice indeed.

Pass me the fork!
