Well here it is.....my very first wedding cake! Now let me tell y'all, making a wedding cake takes a long time......and A LOT of fondant! No lie, I actually got a work out rolling out all that fondant. Just a nice helpful hint that I learnt the hard way.....don't use shortening to grease your counter before rolling out fondant, please use sifted icing sugar, and continue to apply more sugar after a couple rolls to make sure it doesn't stick to the counter. The little white daises you see on the corners of the cake and down below are such an easy and elegant way to accent a wedding cake, especially using white on white. Once each flower is made I put them on flower formers to dry over night and this way they don't lay flat on the cake, but curl up and form a more real life flower structure. They are time consuming but definitely worth the added touch. I simply used white pearl dust to make them have a shiny and glittering affect. Then I used fresh gerber daises and ribbon to complete the cake!
Thanks Michelle and Raymond so much to allowing to me to make your wedding cake, because I know it was my first and there was no guarantee....lol!
