Spring Baby


Another little baby on a cake, this time with spring blossoms and shiny bubbles and surrounded by sugar lace pieces.  All edible. 

We also made matching mini cupcakes, how cute is that?

Ray Of Sunshine

A fresh looking yellow wedding cake, just perfect for a small spring wedding.

Top tier of pleated lace, middle tier with small polka dot pattern, bottom tier striped.  The whole cake was covered in pearl dust for a satin like sheen and finished with a sugar bow.

Cake stand is a square hand made 'Urban' stand made by Lou Hanson Pottery, Dundas.

Spring Flowers - Geraldos at La Salle Park


This was a very colourful spring cake with pink, yellow and purple roses with bright, fresh green leaves.  The cake itself was studded with tiny Swiss dots giving it a soft lacy feel.
Unfortunately there was a purple light shining on the curtain in the background which, for the wedding itself I'm sure looked wonderful, but for the purposes of my photography it made it look like the picture was taken in an alien rocket ship and the whole cake was a strange purple colour!
Thus, I decided to try my hand at "Sepia".
When the bride to be came for her consultation she was so beautifully organized, with a palette of tiny swatches, a picture of her dress, bridesmaids dresses and even a picture of her beautiful engagement ring just in case there was something inspiring to be found to design the cake with.
It's always so helpful to have lots of information about the wedding itself so that the cake matches perfectly the wedding decor, theme and style.
After the wedding the bride's mother wrote:
"Hi Lynne, 
It has been a busy three weeks since Heather and Matthew's wedding!  I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the absolutely gorgeous wedding cake that you created.  When we arrived a few minutes earlier than the guests,  it was a thrill to see the hall fully decorated with the cake adding the finishing touch to the decor.  It complemented the bridal party colors beautifully and many pictures have come our way from guests - obviously it was a hit with them too!  Of course, the cake itself was delicious as was the blueberry and cream cheese filling.   We are looking forward to our 25th in a few months, when  I know we will enjoy your talents again! endy"

Butterflies For An Outdoor Wedding -


This simple green cake with two edible monarch butterflies on the top was what the bride and groom chose as their centrepiece.  The scrollwork was accented on the table linens and the butterflies were the theme of the wedding.
This couple did a butterfly release after the cutting of the cake.
