Polka Dot over Chevron Cupcakes

It's your Baby Shower, so it should be a reflection of your personality and should stand out against other baby showers you have attended. It should stand out with your signature taste.
Use yellow as your primary color and put a little twist on it by adding a tone on tone polka dot over the chevron. 
You will need temperature ball glasses to bake your cupcakes and ice them on top with your primary color.

Floating Candle Centerpieces

So, I created this centerpiece and sent to one of my bridal clients. These are not the exact colors that she is having in her wedding but I was just sending it to her so she can see my concept and her exact words were.....

"I love it!!!!!!! This is very nice"

I enjoy it when my clients are happy. Just her statement itself indicates she will love the entire concept.

Wedding Cake Traditions





Wow!!!!! When I read an article on the tradition of wedding cakes while waiting on my appointment one day. So I decided to joint this stuff down. It's very interesting. I know it's online somewhere also, I just have to find it. Not sure why I picked today to blog about it, but I guess everything is done for a reason.

I was surprised on some of it. The history of wedding cakes goes back as ancient Rome when they would stack oat cakes and break them over the head of the bride. What?, seriously?!

 Mid-evil wedding feasts the sweet cakes were stacked and the bride and groom tried to kiss each other across the stack. If the stack didn't fall, the wedding would be blessed.

 The tradition of the bride and groom feed each other a slice of cake came from breaking the cake OVER the bride's head as a symbol of fertility.

 The white wedding cake symbolizes the purity of the bride and in the Victorian era it reflected on the wealth of the family because the whitest cakes were made from the most refined sugar.

 Most groom’s cakes are found in the South. They are often not served at weddings in the northern US.

 The groom’s cake is reported to have been created to be served with a glass of wine to the bride and bridesmaids by the groom.

 Cakes mark many important beginnings and endings in our lives. We celebrate birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, births, graduations, retirements and many other accomplishments with a piece of cake.
