Clarit and Cream – Wedding Cake – Pacific Grove, CA

Nicole and Gregg were married this past weekend and I was so excited when they booked us for a cake!  They have since relocated to San Diego, but some of you may remember them.  (Nicole was the face of the weekend evening news on KION and Gregg was the weekend weather man on KSBW.)  They are such an endearing couple and I was excited to present them with a classy, elegant and grand cake.

The cake was deliverd to the Gathering, a darling little cottage house that has been turned into an event venue for intimate events.  It was red velvet with cream cheese filling and covered with cream fondant.  Sugar roses and petals cascade down the side of the cake.  A burgandy (clarit) ribbon circles the base of each cake.

Along with the cake, they ordered 80 of the $250 cookies, (chocolate chips, Hershey’s chocolate and walnuts) as finger food desserts for those who didn’t want cake. 

Congratulations Nicole and Gregg!

Happy 3rd Anniversary

Today my husband and I are celebrating our third wedding anniversary!

Since his days off are Tuesday and Wednesday I knew I couldn’t surprise him on our actual anniversary so Monday night at 7:30 I decided to make a cake for him.  He gets off at 10:00pm so I flew to get this cake baked, decorated and set up before he got home.  I quickly piped on some words that every time I hear remind me of him.  Then around the base of the cake stand I piped (quickly) *i love you * happy anniversary*.

Cake:  Vanilla

Icing:  Buttercream

Covered: Fondant tinted green

Piping:  White chocolate candy melts

Now it’s off for anniversary fun topped off with a Sushi dinner.  Hooray!
