“We want it to be big!” says the bride and groom of this cake. They wanted it as big as they could get it and that’s what they got. This cake had a base of 16 inches in diameter. The top of this cake was 10 inches in diameter which in most cases is the center tier of most wedding cakes. To make this cake even bigger if was four tiers instead of the average three. The decorating of this cake was challenging, but so much fun to do. The design was to have a diagonal zigzag going up the cake. First I covered the cake in white fondant and then cut diagonal lines. I then covered the cake with hot pink fondant where there wasn’t any white fondant. After that I got my fondant on the way I wanted it, I started doing the piping. I started with the black buttercream frosting and piped the swirly design on the pink fondant. I then added light turquoise dots to the white fondant. Then to join the two fondants together I piped the edges of where the fondants met with the turquoise frosting. Flowers were added to the corners of where the fondant sloped. By doing this is it tied the whole cake together, and gave it the flare that it needed.
This cake was fun, beautiful, and perfect just like the bride and groom!
