Between baking, decorating, client calls, tastings, working on the store, and employee training I am barely finding time to sleep (which is my #1 priority if you know me!). Within the last 6 days, I think I pulled three 15-20 hour days, and the rest were at least 12 hours…talk about exhaustion! I do have to say that I'm so thankful for my new assistant Louisa! She helped me out so much this past week, and I am so excited to have her on my team!

Well enough about me and my aches and pains, let's get to the good stuff…desserts! This post is going to be a schmorgasboard of wonderful delights! This first photo is from a girlfriend's recent 25th birthday party. When she called me to see if I could make the cake, of course I said yes! I wanted to do more of a homespun look for the cake and used a simple fresh flower to decorate it.

Desserts: Traditional Wedding Cakes and the Not-So-Traditional…

May 5th, 2009 @ 8:33 am by Kate Parker @ Kate Parker Weddings

Some brides come to us with the vision of a traditional wedding which includes the classic wedding cake, complete with a topper and cutting ceremony. Others ask for the exact opposite, serving simple pies and bunt cakes. Brides are also looking for alternative desserts, either to replace the wedding cake or to add to it. I have compiled some images from vendors we've worked with in the past, showcasing desserts from the traditional to the over-the-top!

The classic wedding cake…there are so many styles to choose from -fresh flowers, sugar paste, fondant and buttercream. Check out these incredible designs! Cakes by Something Sweet By Michelle.

Custom shaded purple fondant with a shimmering overlay. Sugar paste flowers and ribbon draping complete the look of this unique creation.
