My first wedding cake!
I did my first wedding cake this weekend! I'm really happy with the way it turned out but it was very frustrating especially with everything I've got going on right now. Just thought I'd share it with you all.... (I'm proud. )

It's not you, the site re-directs you to this link:

But still, Apryl grats on the cake.

Jamie and Charlene are the best people that I have never met.
I couldn't ask for better friends (even if some people think they are imaginary).

I want one of those for my birthday.
Not a wedding, just the cake.

I would assume she made the whole thing. It would be hard to have 2 or 3 people working on one cake.

RE: My first wedding cake!
I did this one for free. It was for a family member so I did it for the cost of supplies as my gift to them. Normally I would get about $400.00 for a cake like that.

RE: My first wedding cake!
did u use royal icing for the flowers?
I've always used fresh icing flowers out of buttercream, but a girlfriend of mine uses royal icing and makes the flowers about a week ahead of time and just places them on there when she's finished icing and decorating.
Just curious about someone elses technique....

RE: My first wedding cake!
Yes, I used royal icing for all of the little pink flowers. I didn't do them a week ahead of time though, just a day or two. I normally would have used buttercream for them because it would have been faster, but I used royal because I wanted the cluster of flowers look for the garland when meant I had to stack a bunch on top of each other. I was worried that the buttercream wouldn't give me the look I was going for.
