Alana Theresa and I have a wedding cake project for another bestie! Katherine recently became engaged to her man, Brendan, while on a trip in BC. We are SO excited! Our excitement is not only because K is the first of our nursing trio to get hitched, but because Theresa and I will be in … More Katherine’s Wedding Cake! (aka Purple Velvet Cake)
Roopa It’s wedding time! To recap, my friend Gina asked me to make her wedding cake last year, and of course I said yes. Her and Alex wanted a three tier lemon raspberry cake with a “messy” buttercream finish. I’m not all that confident with my fondant skills, so this worked for the best. I did … More Raspberry Lemon Wedding Cake
Roopa A friend of mine had a Beach Divas themed volleyball tournament, so I volunteered to make a themed cake. It was a good opportunity to practice my wedding cake recipe too! I made some adjustments based on how the last cake turned out and was really happy with the final result!
Roopa Last year, my friend Gina got engaged and asked me to make her a wedding cake! I was really flattered and excited about the cake, and really happy about the wedding. I’m really close with Gina’s older sister, so she’s kind of like a little sister. And, Bonnie will be flying in for the … More Lemon Raspberry Wedding Cake: Part One
Alana Here we go (finally)! The cake for Stephen and Ash’s wedding day! The process of making the actually wedding cake spanned the course of three days.

Alana This post is coming a little bit (read “a lot”) later than I would have liked thanks to the busy holiday season. Somehow all of the parties and dinners that I baked for took up a lot of time!

Alana This project isn’t baking per say, but it is very related to baking that I mentioned in my last wedding cake post (aka Theresa and I are baking and decorating a practice cake in a couple days). Roopa found a really lovely looking cake that was decorated with dehydrated oranges, and was reminded of our … More Dehydrated Oranges
Alana A couple days ago, Theresa and I were finally able to test out our recipe in a 10 inch pan! Being able to borrow a pan was such a relief, as we haven’t been able to find a 10 inch pan with 3 inch sides anywhere. This particular recipe doesn’t rise much more than … More Wedding Cake Part III
Alana As I mentioned in my post on creme brulee, I made a batch of swiss meringue buttercream with Theresa to do another test-run for Stephen and Ashlea’s wedding cake. The way I see it, there are two big things we need to do before we bake the cake for the big day: 1) try … More Wedding Cake Part II
Alana My friend Stephen is getting married this December, and I am SO excited for his wedding! Firstly, I think it’s going to be ridiculously fun, secondly because Stephen and Ashlea (his fiance) have asked Theresa and I to bake their wedding cake 🙂 Theresa and I have known for a while that Ash wanted … More Wedding Cake!
