Have your cake…So who does one of the UK’s top cake makers, whose creations have been ordered by the likes of Stella McCartney, Elton John and Trudi Styler, go to when she needs someone to make her wedding cake? In the case of Peggy Porschen, the answer is her protégé, local girl Roxanne Floquet. And I’m not surprised – just look at the kinds of gorgeousness that come from Roxy’s kitchen… We featured Roxy’s own wedding on Tuesday (where Peggy returned the favour and made the stunning cake) and now I get the chance to show you how you can get a, er, slice of the action. After training at Silwo...

Have Your Cake and Eat It TooWhile there were some areas where we knew we wanted to try to save, there were others where we decided we would spend. Our cake was also one of the areas we decided we would spend. From the moment we saw the cakes by Alexis from Elegant Indulgences, we knew she was going to be able to carry out our vision. The best part is that not only is she an artist when it comes to decorating, she is also an artist when it comes to baking. The cake was so good that we actually took the top tier with us on our honeymoon and ate it! We weren’t about to risk leaving it in the freezer for a year and having ...

Have Your Cake and Eat it TooWe have a package deal with our location/caterer and have the choice of 3 bakeries to make our cake (price included, unless we want to upgrade, then we pay the difference).It’s definitely not a bad deal, but we found each bakery has its pros and cons. From mickeyspastryshop.com The first appointment we had was with Konditor Meister – a bakery famed in the greater Boston area for their cakes. We didn’t know what to expect, and were honestly a little overwhelmed. We went on a Saturday afternoon, and the bakery was bustling – many people at the counter, and lots of beautiful cakes and pa...

Board #466: Have your cake......and eat it, too! Wayne Thiebaud's painting of cake inspired today's wedding board - I love his paintings of cake. I pulled the barely-there blue out of the plates in that painting and made that a key element in this palette. I also couldn't ignore that sweet little strawberry on top of the cake, so I suppose if this wedding had a motif it would be strawberries. And ruffles.Mood: flirty, sweet, funPalette: strawberry red, buttercream white, faded blue{click image to enlarge}Top row from left: ruffled Melissa Sweet dress photo by Tanja Lippert, strawberry cake painting by Wayne Thiebaud, flor...

Have Your Cake And Eat It TooNow these cakes really take the cake for unique design and quality. These wedding cakes, by far, represent some of the most interesting concepts that will surely make any wedding guest comment on them. I guess the essence of a wedding cake is to be a reflection of the bride and groom. Judging from these photos below the reflection couldn’t be clearer. Who is more lovely? The bride or the cake? I wonder who she is wearing? Want fries with that burger wedding cake? Don’t even know what this is. It looks more like a toy than a wedding cake. Very interesting. This was re...
