Wedding Cake Inspiration

Your wedding day reflects your personal style, and so should your wedding day sweets!  White cakes inside and out are no longer the norm; the sky is the limit when it comes to design and flavors. 

Inspiration may come from your dress, the location, or a wedding theme, but in this case inspiration was drawn from the invitation.  Cherry blossoms, and their signature colors: varying pinks and chocolate brown branches were used as a recurring theme for decor and the bride chose to use the flowing branches on her cake for this small intimate affair.  

We love inspiration in any shape or size, and we look forward to seeing your wedding inspiration when you meet with us for a wedding consultation and tasting! Cheers, Meredith

Wedding Cake: Stargazer Pink Lillies & Silver Ribbon at Onset, Massachusetts

We created this three tiered round buttercream cake with a gazebo topper, chosen and decorated by the bride for a wedding in Onset, Massachusetts at the recepetion hall Salerno's.

Silver ribbon chosen by the bride and descending large bunches of fresh Stargazer Lilly blossoms were requested.

Fun & Whimsical Wedding Cake

The three tiered buttercreaam designed was hand piped with black swirls, dots, and fun design. Sugarpaste pearls were placed as a border at the base of each tier and a black and white sugarpaste handmade monogram was placed on the side of the top tier.


This hot pink fushia, black, and pearl wedding cake was created for a small wedding ceremony in Taunton, Massachusetts.

This design could easily be translated into a variety of color schemes, or even shades of white and cream for a whimsical addition to a wedding reception.

The cake flavor included vanilla butter cake with buttercream frosting.

Wedding Cake Demo @ The Bookstall

Mimi Putnam, of The Bookstall in Marion, MA, was kind to ask us to setup a wedding cake decorating demo at her adorable shop right on Sippican Harbor. Here are two of the four cakes that we had on display and later devoured!

The three tiered cake is wrapped in pink satin ribbon with a handmade gumpaste magnolia dusted in pale yellow and chartreuse with tiny lily of the valley. This cake features a double layer center tier which gives a modern flair to a simply stated cake. Our friend Sarah called it the "Southern Bell Cake"! The cake inside the beautifully smooth fondant was red velvet cake with vanilla buttercream.

The second is a top cake for our cupcake stands decorated with piping reminiscent of paisley with tiny teal rice paper butterflies. This pretty cake is perfect for a little girl, sweet 16 or even a bridal shower. We can even add a couple of booties on top for a baby shower.

To satisfy everyone's sweet tooth we brought along a devilish chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream and fresh raspberries which we call "Pink Polka Dot Cake" along with vanilla butter cupcakes and lemon cupcakes-- YUM!

Thank you, Mimi, for a successful event!
