Gerbera Daisy & Chocolate Wedding Cake @ Independence Harbor, Assonet Massachuetts

One of my favorite venues is the flawless and perfectly kept gardens of Independence Harbor in Assonet Massachusetts. This particular wedding, held on a blustery afternoon in October included gorgeous fresh gerbera daisy blossoms by Nancy and her talented staff at A Wareham Florist. Bright yellows, fushias, oranges and reds were showstopping on this white buttercream cake with tiny hand piped five petal daisy accents. The dark chocolate colored band at the base of each tier is completely edible and hand rolled from dark chocolate sugarpaste and then polished to a satin finish. Piped over the chocolate band is a small base of ivory pearls.



The chilly day was foiled by a fresh fruit cake: vanilla butter cake soaked in vanilla bean syrup with fresh strawberries and buttercream filling.



Here is the original sketch:

Jewel Toned Wedding Cake @ Indian Pond Country Club, Kingston, Massachusetts

I have officially found my favorite wedding & event venue on the South Shore: Indian Pond Country Club @ 60 Country Club Road in Kingston, Massachusetts.

This place is a stunner, we drove the pine-lined drive which opened up to a gorgeous clubhouse and the only word my assistant and I uttered was: "Wow!".

Shades of ivory and small details like raised panel walls, two elaborate mahogany bars, and a high chair rail make the ballroom something reminiscent of Newport, Rhode Island-- however the view of the rolling greens and tall pine trees remind you that you actually are standing on the South Coast of Massachusetts.

The flowers by my new find: Bella Flora by Alexis out of Bridgewater, Massachusetts were breathtaking jewel tones all in seasonal blossoms!



The cake: an ivory four-tier buttercream cake with small piping details: swirl, five petal flowers and scroll work. The decor: seasonal blooms in dark orange, reds, purples, magenta pink, chartreuse green. The blooms: dahlias, zinnias, dendrobium orchids, green spider mums, & spray roses.



A small detail which "made" the whole setup was the hand guilded two-tiered gold board on which the cake sat. This gold pulled from the gold chairs in the ballroom and the gold rimmed chargers set at each guests place setting!

The cake flavor to match the jewel toned wedding: vanilla butter cake with layers of raspberry marmalade and apricot marmalade.

Wedding Cupcake Display @ Tabor Academy

We delivered this simple cupcake display yesterday to a wedding at Tabor Academy in Marion, Massachusetts. The color scheme was set in shades of pale pinks, and the bride had requested a simple cupcake display with only scattered flowers. Azaleas were her flower of choice and each had a sugarpaste pearl center.

The cupcake stand was custom trimmed in a pale pink grosgrain ribbon to match the decor of the event. We can customize any cupcake stand in any ribbon color or have the stands painted to match the decor of the event.



The cupcakes included vanilla butter and devilish chocolate with vanilla buttercream.

Wedding Cake: Red Roses, Ribbons, and Shimmer

We delivered this glittery wedding cake to the Marion Social Club for Christine and Hart's big wedding celebration. Christine came to us with two requests: she loves bling, and she loved red roses. Not a problem! We designed this glitter covered cake topped with a lush bouquet of red roses with crystals placed in the center of each flower, the top tier of the cake is wrapped in a grosgrain ribbon with a pearl and crystal brooch as the focal point.

A huge thank you to A Wareham Florist for the beautiful rose topper for this cake!

The cake flavors included: Spice Cake with Calvados Apples and Vanilla Butter Cake with Strawberry Marmalade

Couture Stripes

We created this cake for a fun and fanciful wedding reception at The Kinsale Inn in Mattapoisett.



This buttercream cake featured extra-tall tiers, each measuring 6 inches in height and was decorated in fun swirls and dots. The couture ribbon around each tier coordinated with the centerpieces and bride's flowers. The topper is a hand made paste bouquet in fushias, yellows, blues and greens. The flowers were ribbon roses, simple five petal azaleas, green tendrils, and buds.

Seaside Classic in Little Compton Rhode Island

I always joke about how fortunate I am to be able to deliver beautiful cakes to beautiful vistas, each one is like a little vacation for me. From Southeastern Massachusetts, to Coastal Rhode Island to Cape Cod and the South Shore the views are fantastic. But beyond that- I love making cakes to match the views!



This classic cake with modern touches was delivered to a summer home on the Sakonnet River in Little Compton, Rhode Island. White and blue seasonal blossoms adorned the tables and this cake sat front and center on the buffet in front of the picture window. Cabbage roses handmade from sugarpaste sat atop the white fondant covered cake with a modern wave detail. We heard the bridal shower was a huge success and the ladies enjoyed the vanilla butter cake with vanilla Italian buttercream.

Buttercream Scroll Wedding Cake @ Kinsale Inn

We created this three tiered buttercream cake for a small casual wedding at The Kinsale Inn in Mattapoisett, MA. The small scrolls and simple fresh flower topper was based on a cake featured on TheKnot.com. The cake offered guests a choice of vanilla cake or devilish chocolate cake all with vanilla italian buttercream.
