JENNR8R 0 #9 May 28, 2007 Ooooo... Are those gum paste orchids on your cake and displayed against a faux finished wall? Breathtaking! What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stacy 0 #10 May 28, 2007 faux finish, no. it's an old spanish estate that belonged to the man who made radios- Powel Crosley. It's a local historical site and nothing is faux there. and they aren't orchids. My favorite flower is an iris and they suprised me with faux iris' on the cake since real ones wouldn't stand up in the heat here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JENNR8R 0 #12 May 28, 2007 I'm sorry if you misunderstood my post. I was sincerely admiring the pictures. I've made hundreds of wedding cakes, but have never mastered the gum paste flower technique. It is truly a spectacular cake. And I've done some faux finishing on walls too. I've made columns look like brickwork, kitchen walls look like ceramic tile and living room walls look like wallpaper... all with paint. The wall behind your cake table reminded me of some of those projects that I did. You picked a beautiful location. Congratulations on such a successful wedding. I'm very happy for you.

Stacy 0 #13 May 28, 2007 teh guy who made the cake is a local "cake celebrity." He specializes in the sugar/gum paste work. His website is pretty neat- http://www.beautifulcakesbyron.com He actually made a lifesize grand piano out of cake and sugar once! He also, to my delight, can make fondant that doesn't feel hard or crunchy, etc. It was wonderful! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JENNR8R 0 #14 May 28, 2007 Quote from the cake decorators website: "We'll do 15 to 20 weddings some weekends during the season," he said. Quote Whoa! I don't think many people can appreciate that statement. When I'd do a wedding cake, I'd have to take a week off of work just to do one cake. Thanks for sharing that website. His work is a feast for the eyes. What do you call a beautiful, sunny day that comes after two cloudy, rainy ones? -- Monday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
