Pink and White Orchid Wedding CakeI have a friend from my childhood who married well. Like…her family went to Hawaii last month and are in Florida this week. Sure, they are both business trips for her husband’s work…but color me jealous because I have to scrimp and save for end tables from Ikea. This is not to say she married for money because she didn’t…she just got super lucky in the rich husband department. Anyway, while looking through her family photos of their Hawaiian vacation I found myself longing for a glass of pineapple juice and a vase full of hibiscus flowers. Since that won’...

Orchid Wedding CakeI have searched high and low for a gorgeous purple wedding cake. Until today my search had been unsuccessful. Then I stumbled upon this gorgeous Orchid inspired Lilac Wedding Cake. The cake is a three tiered circle cake with a gorgeous lilac fondant layer. A cute orchid design layers the the three tiers. The icing on the wedding cake (so to speak) is the amazing artistry of the fondant orchids that top the cake. The purple and white orchids look almost life-like.

Ivory Orchid Cutaway Wedding CakeI wanted to show you this cake specifically because of the shape. The orchids are pretty, and the simple design is flawlessly executed, but what I really love is the shape. So many brides and cake artists are looking to all kinds of embellishments to set their wedding cake apart, that sometimes we forget something as simple as the shape of the cake can make it unique. One of my very favorite cakes ever was featured in the cookbook Baking with Julia, and was made by Martha Stewart. It was such a simple cake really, ivory buttercream, trimmed with marzipan cherries and raspberries. But wh...

Brown and Blue Wedding CakeI remember the first time I saw the brown and blue color combination thrown together on the same palette. It was 2005…a Wednesday. It was raining. I worked in a small retail store, and Vera Bradley had just put out her new patterns for fall. Right then and there I fell in love with the illustrious Java Blue. (Which by the way, went on to be one of Vera Bradley’s all time best sellers. Apparently I wasn’t the only sorority girl who fell in love with the combo.) The pattern has long since been retired but the colors have been paired together on everything imaginable, from clothing to ...
