Black and White Wedding Cake

Made this because i haven't made any wedding cakes since i started up again making cakes a few months ago, so i only have a few photos of 'old fashioned' wedding cakes and wanted to show something more up to date.
Made with dummies.

SA State Competition. Burgundy Wedding Cake

This cake has a VERY long story. I have posted it in the Cake Stories.

The inspiration for this cake came from "russianromance" of flourgirl2007, Jacque cake with a ball on top and Fran's Burgundy wedding cake with stunning roses on top.
Thank you ladies!!!!!

Dogwood Blossom Wedding Cake with Cupcakes

A 12", 8" and 6" triple height wedding cake decorated with fondant Dogwood blooms, royal icing branches and hand cut fondant birds painted with gold lustre.

I'm trying to stay one step ahead of the game and make some display cakes for the wedding fayres I have in November (before the baby comes and I don't have any time!). This is my first one, an oriental inspired design that I wanted to look soft, romantic & stylish. This is probably my favourite thing I've ever made and I admit I'll probably never be able to face dismantling it to reuse the dummies!

The cupcakes are vanilla with pink vanilla buttercream, & chocolate with vanilla cream cheese frosting

Wedding Cake

Would you ever guess this wedding cake is fake? Yup! I had to make a last minute change and made the wedding cake out of rice krispies.

I saw a story about fake wedding cakes on the Today Show a long time ago and mentioned it to Rodney and Kim. Since their wedding was outdoors in Ramona, where it can get really hot in the summer, I thought a fake cake would be a good option. So a week before the wedding, Kim asked if I could go ahead and make the fake cake for display. I made their real cake but kept it in the refrigerator until it was time to cut and serve it to the guests.

Before I covered the "faux" cake in fondant, I cut out a rice krispie wedge from the bottom tier and stuck a real red velvet cake slice (without the cream cheese frosting) in its place. I marked two lines on the fondant so Rodney and Kim would know where the real cake was at cake-cutting time.

If the rest of my cousins decide to get married in the summer, I'm definitely making them a fake wedding cake ;-) And I'll use styrofoam next time.

I decorated the cake with satin ribbon and handmade fondant pearls. The florist added the flowers.

UPDATE (2/6/09): I have a step-by-step tutorial on how I made the wedding monogram in my blog. I also have a post on how I made a fake wedding cake.
