Wedding anniversary cake

This cake is for 30th wedding anniversary of a nice couple. The lady ordered the cake for her family.

I wish the couple a lot of happiness together, love and support!

The cake is made out of vanilla and chocolate layers with very light and fluffy vanilla cream and delicious fresh raspberries. It's covered by chocolate ganache and decorated by fresh fruit, meringue, edible pearls, macaroons and chocolate sticks. By the way, the 30th wedding anniversary is the pearl anniversary. That's why I added these white and pink edible pearls as decoration.

The start of something beautiful...

Congratulations on the start of something beautiful!

Wedding cake blue and white

Dear Silvia and Alex, I wish you the whole happiness in the world! Be happy, love strongly each other like the first day you have met! Keep the passion, the confidence, the respect ... I wish you long and happy life together!

This wonderful couple I met 6 months ago when they asked me for a wedding cake...I made different samples, we discussed a lot of flavors, fillings, cake designs...and finally they picked me up to make their wedding cake. Thank you, Silvia and Alex for the trust and confidence!

Silvia, the bride, have brought me the figurine. The young couple also sent me a picture of a wedding cake that they liked very much. I had the task to make the same cake. Sometimes it's not so easy to make a copy of a cake because you try to make it exactly the same...and it never works that way :(

Anyway, I was happy that the wedding was planned for October - not so warm,not so cold,sometimes without any snow and ice, time without any high humidity....

It is not a  secret for the people making fondant cakes that the fondant "killer" (as I call it) is the high humidity. Everything is sticky, it's difficult sometimes even to cover the cake, imagine to make any decorations. The cake starts "sweating" in front of you just in seconds. One mistake and that's it. Sometimes there isn't any chance and possibility to correct it.

Probably, you guess where I am going - exactly these days the air humidity was so high like we were in July.The cake was |sweating", I was sweating around it. My fingers were trembling nervously... Full disaster!!!! And this was a wedding cake...for a lot of people...All the time I imagined that I was the bride, somebody was making my wedding cake and at the end everything was spoiled. Nightmare!

I couldn't do anything like this. It's unforgivable, unprofessional. That's why I concentrated, I gave everything of me and I started the battle with the humidity. Probably, for most of you, this is very funny or stupid,but not for me at this crucial moment....

There were a lot of emotions these days - memories from the time when I got married, the thrill, the passion and the love, how beautiful was my wedding in my eyes, the disappointment from the weather (by the way I adore hot weather but not these days when I had to prepare a big wedding cake), the trembling fingers and the stress....

But I'll make the long story short - the cake was delivered successfully to the restaurant and it was put immediately in the big fridge.

Now I'm waiting for the photos from the wedding...

Here, I would like to apologize to all of you who are reading this post. I couldn't take professional photos and unfortunately I can't show you the real beauty of the cake.

Dear Silvia and Alex, keep the love and passion forever!

One love, one heart, one destiny

This cake I made for my true love - my husband. The reason for it is our wedding anniversary today. The idea for the cake came when I noticed this small wooden statue that you can see on the picture. Two years ago my husband bought it for us as a memory from Magog. We try every time when we visit a new place to buy a small souvenir. And now it's time for the cake.

This cake is raw. I made it with two 6" layers full of ground walnuts, almonds, cranberries, raisins, lemon zest, carob powder, ground cookies, cocoanut oil and the most important ingredient - LOVE. The layers are stuck together by abundance of our favorite filling - mascarpone with raspberries.
