You may not be able to round up 150 Wedgewood place settings for the big day, but I love the idea of using a classic china pattern as fondant inspiration! John and I devoured two seasons of Cake Boss recently, and my obsession with confections has reached a fever pitch!
What do you think the best looking cakes include? Do you go for lots of detail, or do you keep it simple? I'll tell you my answer-I'm a sucker for buttercream cakes with simple pearl beading!

definitely buttercream! intricate detailing on cakes can be absolutely gorgeous, but my tastes usually run towards simpler designs
ReplyDeletegeeze. I love Cake Boss lol.i watched the seasons I could back to back man huddled under my dark covers watching it in the small screen of my phone :)
ReplyDeleteI like the patterns.. something that is simple, but still lovely like the one you posted today is a good example of that. Im not a big fan of the "mad hatter" type cakes.. I like both the dirty iceing look and the smooth too..
I love that one, classic. I heart buttercream with coconut. I don't know why but the coconut covered cakes always look so pretty to me, like fallen snow.
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning. For some reason it reminded me of France. I love it!
ReplyDeletei love that cake! it is beautiful:)

Buttercream cake with pearl beading was our wedding cake! We just added our cake topper and some lavender/white roses and voila! I just think the taste of the cake matters most but it is always fun to see elaborate cakes made!
ReplyDeletei wish i could watch cake boss but we dont get tlc in my house anymore :(

I'm right there with you, Lena. There is something about a buttercream and simple pearl beading that will last through the ages. To me, it's all about the cake stand - throw a simple cake on a fun colored cake stand and it's perfect:)
ReplyDeleteOooh, hello! I love this cake - such a sweet detail.
