Grand SeaShell Wedding Cake

@ Belle Mer, Newport, Rhode Island

We created this 5 tiered wedding cake for a grand seashell inspired wedding in Newport, Rhode Island. Eight pounds of edible shells and edible gold coral cover the cake in a heavy cascade. We custom designed the stand and tablescape for the bride which included a glass table top lifted by glass cubes, the table is covered in edible 'sugar sand' with a monogram and real sea shells.

Textured Buttercream Wedding Cake

Budgets....everyone has one, and we do our best to help all of our brides get the look they want within their budget.

This cake was created for a bride at Beverly Yacht Club in Marion, Massachusetts and featured a textured pulled star buttercream similar to the Couture Wedding Cake picture at the bottom.

The bride's budget didn't allow for individual sugar flowers from the original design (super labor intensive and therefore very expensive) so instead we utilized a similar technique in buttercream!
