December wedding cake

My dear friend Christina got married in December last year and had asked if I would make her a romantic and classic wedding cake with her favourite chocolate cake and raspberry filling covered with fondant and decorated with gum paste roses and flowers.

 

The cake was our gift to the lovely couple and they were blown away and very satisfied. We had the most wonderful time at the wedding party - it was a beautiful ceremony, traditional and elegant and the bride was incredible stunning! We had a great wedding weekend...

The photographer took this lovely photo of the cake:

Finally I got to make yet another wedding cake and I've looked so much forward to doing this paticular cake because it seemed so easy! Well guess again missy! 

Late last night I got around to the decorating and finishing touches and I dropped the bow I made on Monday right on the floor! That meant I had to make a whole new bow and didn't have the time for it to dry enough before I put it on the cake and I was disappointed with how it turned out... I tried to salvage it by splitting the bow in half and put on each piece individually and the result was okay... 

Anyway the bride was happy with it and now I just hope that she will be with the taste of it as well... here it is:

Looong time nooo see...

It just dawned on me how longs it has been since I've made an update on this blog - and I'm a bit ashamed I must admit... I've been so busy moving another blog from LiveJournal to Blogspot and it has taken forever and the posts have just been piling up - so it seems I'm generally behind in my blogging... SORRY!

I hope that I'll soon get more time to blog on this blog as well, I have some beautiful cakes to show off and some dishes as well - I hope you'll be patient with me...
