Engagement cake.

Engagement Cake - Cruise Ship, Toronto

A lovely young lady came to see us a few weeks back with a picture of her engagement dress asking us if we could make a cake that looked similar, with a little more bling!

White velvet cake.

Everybody Say Ahhhhh - CN Tower, Toronto

Now we have a lovely story here:

We were asked to make a proposal cake for one lucky girl who, at the time of writing this is wearing a wonderful Tiffany & Co. engagement ring!

We were asked to create two boxes made of cake (red velvet of course).  Then, the fiance brought to us the Tiffany ring box to fix on to the top of the cake...oh so exciting and no, I didn't see what was inside.

We then dressed the boxes with bows, blossoms with pearl centres, two tiny sugar love birds and finally dusted the boxes with edible glitter dust for a fine diamond coating.

We have been promised pictures!

Engagement Cake

A neat engagement cake for an office party called for something a little more "masculine" than usual.

The Proposal - Take Two

Some time ago we did a proposal cake where the couple were in a park surrounded by trees and near a lake sitting on a park bench (I'm doing their wedding cake soon by the way).

This time we were asked to do a blonde couple, with the girl sitting on the rock and them being next to a waterfall.

Mission accomplished!
Here's a close up:

The Proposal

This was a really fun cake to make.  The occasion was an engagement party which was quite a formal affair.  The groom had proposed to his fiancee by the lakeshore on a bench near the trees, so they asked that the cake reflect the whole story without being too childish.  This isn't as easy as it sounds.

I decided to design this cake with a formal 'wedding cake' style cake at the back with a formal topper (a little ring box made of cake into which I put a huge diamond ring that I'd purchased when I went on a trip to France knowing that some day I'd use it on a cake).

The cake was airbrushed to represent the grass and the water, then trees, grass and flowers were piped on to the board.  The little figurines and bench were added as well as some shiny water.  The little guy is holding a ring box the same as on the top of the cake with a tiny diamond ring inside with a real crystal.
