Congratulations to Brittney and Cory!
I just loved this cake! Brittney and Cory were super fun to work with. I think this may be one of my favorite cakes of the year. Brittney brought me a picture of a cake she'd seen in a magazine and wanted it to be very similar, just changing a couple things and colors. This cake was beautiful and elegant, but also very unique. The blue texture behind the flower vines is a lace pattern done in light blue buttercream. It gave just a subtle hint of something interesting behind the focal point of the cake, which was the flowers and vines.
The flowers are all sugar flowers, with 2 large open peonies and then the orange/yellow vine flowers. The flowers are all handmade from gum paste and then colored with special edible food color dusts. They were so pretty and my favorite part of the cake. The colors just popped against the white and blue background.
Brittney and Cory's reception was held on the top floor patio of Noah's, which is such a beautiful venue. It's open, airy, and very gardeny, and the cake fit in perfectly.
This was such a fun project to work on, and I thoroughly enjoyed working with this sweet couple. I wish them a lifetime of happiness!!
