weekend wedding cakes...



Jasmine & Alex are already husband & wife...they went the courthouse route back before Alex was deployed to Iraq...i had a wedding cake consultation & sampling with Jasmine & her mom while Alex was overseas...they had plans to celebrate by throwing a big reception when he returned

once Alex was back home (just a couple of months ago), i made sure to bake up some more samples for him too...so he could also be a part of the planning ;0)

today, they celebrated with more than 200 of their friends & family...& with this cake! ;0) it was alternating tiers of red velvet & marble, iced in buttercream...a purple satin ribbon was used for the border on each tier...i accented each tier with edible fondant pearls...& decorated the cake with beautiful sugar flowers

Jasmine made sure to also include a special surprise for her hubby...this groom's cake (look familiar?)...

it was fudge chip, iced in buttercream & covered in purple fondant...i made the pumpkins & tombstones from fondant...the fence, hill & moon are not edible

the weather today was just beautiful! & the tent was filling up with folks well before the reception was scheduled to begin...i could tell that these 2 are loved by many...i hope they were pleased with how their cake turned out, & had a fabulous day celebrating their recent nuptials & Alex's safe return!
