I'm sorry! I have probably been the worst blogger to ever exist. It's been forever since my last post, and it's not for lack of cakes to write about! I have been caking non stop, and it's been wonderful! A whole lot of big things are happening this year, it's all so very exciting! I took part in my very first bridal show in January (pictures to come), my new website is up (
www.winkle.ca) and a whole lot more exciting stuff to follow! But first, here are a few pictures from my last two weddings of 2013.
The first is from a wedding that was held at the beautiful Windsor. Such an elegant location required an equally elegant cake! The bride wanted to surprise her hubby to be with a soccer ball somehow incorporated into the cake. The bottom tier was also inspired by her wedding dress. I'm loving the ruffle rose, and the trend hasn't died down just yet! I still have two more for 2014 weddings with ruffle roses! So pretty!
So, I had to beautify a soccer ball, include inspirations from the bride's dress, and make the sure the whole thing wasn't a hot mess, and would fit into the elegant setting of Le Windsor. Challenge accepted!
My last wedding of 2013 was a December wedding held at Auberge St-Gabriel. I was asked to create a vintage lace inspired sweet table, filled with cookies, macarons, cupcakes, and at the centre of it all, another ivory and gold cake. We brought in a ton of props, from candle sticks, jewelry boxes, and even little perfume bottles to tie it all together!
