THE VENUE
A wedding at the beautiful Adamshurst in Albury was the setting for Lisa and Braden's wedding.The setting was truly magnificent but well the day was cold and wet. Now I come to think of it the last wedding cake I prepared was set against torrential rain. All the more reason to produce a cake which brings a smile to the eyes! Note I couldn't resist getting a photo in these surroundings!

PRIOR CONSULTATION
We had had a complimentary cake tasting and the flavours decided. The cake - rich chocolate mud and strawberry cake filled and covered with white choc ganache and finally topped with fondant. Cupcakes - vanilla / chocolate/ coffee/ banana. Lisa had requested a cupcake tower for 30 people and that she would supply the cake topper of a bride and groom. She added no love hearts but loved flowers.
The flowers took some time to produce but i just love making edible decorations so it was no hassle. A dusting of pale pink was added to the dress of the bride [the topper not the real one] so that it toned with the large pink flower on the cake. The use of the lacy cupcake wrappers added to the style of the moment.
