Ruffles Roses and Pearls Wedding Cake

How gorgeous is this wedding cake?!? Alice designed her cake based off her dress, wanting lots of ruffles and pearls, and the soft pink that she had everywhere at the reception. The bottom two tiers were made to mimic the ruffles of her wedding dress. The next tier was covered in hand rolled and airbrushed pearls, and the top tier was covered in layers and layers of ruffles. All of the roses were hand made and airbrushed. The cake was white velvet, almond, and strawberry with fresh strawberry filling and the reception was at the Ashton Hotel in downtown Fort Worth. 

"The Bride's Room" Mini Cupcakes

Hi everyone! I have been really slacking in the blogging department! I have also been slacking big time on my picture taking- I prefer to take shots of cupcakes all setup instead of after the fact when they are already boxed up, so thankfully for this order Arden Prucha Jenkins of Arden Prucha Photography got some awesome shots of the mini's I did for The Bride's Room one year Annivesary! You can check out Arden's Blog post featuring the mini's, The Bride's Room, and her wonderful photography work Here. 
Kim Gotcher of The Bride's Room contacted me to do some mini's for her one year anniversary of her shop being open, and I was super excited because A. she loves pink as much as I do B. her shop is also on Camp Bowie (and she consequently was feelin' my pain over the permit situation) and C. her shop was sooo cute and all of her dresses were honestly beautiful! I'm a picky gal- and these were definitely top of the line, feminine, modern dresses! To all my Fort Worth friends who have recently become engaged- I really do suggest you go in and take a look! She also has the cutest accessories (my fav) and it's always a fresh of breath air to encounter friendly, honest, down to earth people in this c-r-a-z-y wedding industry!!
The mini's that I made were 5 dozen pink champagne with pink champagne buttercream and almond with buttercream. The decorations were soft pink, pearls, and gold- super delicate and "wedding-y" (new word!)

Fashion Cake

This is an 8" Marble Cake, with one layer of chocolate buttercream filling, and one regular buttercream. The request was for a "fashionable" cake for Camillia's birthday. The cake is covered in white quilted fondant, with a textured fondant bow, tag, scarf, pearls, lipstick and shoe! I was very excited about the shoe, the first shoe I've ever made! Now let's be honest, I have been known to wear some pretty out-there outfits in my time, but I think I've got a pretty good sense of "fashion" and style, let's just hope Camillia is on the same page as I am! My shoe was inspired by a Betsey Johnson-esque look and I think it turned out so cute! I'd wear them in real life ;)
