Wedding Tip from Gemma:

“I recomend choosing the design of you your wedding cake after you have chosen your dress, flowers and other decorations. The size of the cake is very important as bigger venues with high ceilings need larger cakes to create an impact. The current trend of stacked cakes instead of pillars means that the cake is not so high. Using false tiers, blocking flowers between the tiers and pedstal cake stands, all create height.”

According the Gemma Alexanian, the cake designer and baker of these beautiful wedding cakes, the decoration on the outside of the cake does not effect the flavours that you choose, so you can have an all chocolate cake with white icing or various flavours with a white chocolate sculpted finish or dark chocolate finish. And here are two chocolate wedding cakes for our readers who are chocolate lovers.

Temari Wedding Cakes

Dolce Sposa — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 06:57:54 +0000

I think you will all fall in love with these very romantic and unique Temari wedding cakes by Maki Searle of Maki’s Cakes. They are absolutely gorgeous and they’d definitely make a statement on your special day. We were priveledge to get the chance to speak to Maki and to ask her about the inspiration behind her Temari cakes and how this fusion of East meets West wedding cakes all started.

“Spherical shape is quite a common shape for Japanese sweets and desserts which are usually stuffed with red beans. Before I started Maki’s Cakes, I worked as a pasty chef in England and I tried making some Japanese sweets for our local guests. They all loved and were highly impressed by the design, but unfortunately, what tasted good for Japanese or Asian clientele didn’t really suiteveryone’s liking, which, of course, is totally understandable. But this is where it all started - my love for delicious cakes paved way for my signature Temari cakes which uses only the finest ingredients in cake making that everyone will surely love and my passion for Japanese art & design, that I am so proud of. These powerful synergy combined together is when my temari cakes were born to life.”

I think her statement says it all, the Temari cakes are not only aesthetically beautiful, but every mouthful will surely be super yum!

I think the Temari wedding cakes above will be ideal for a spring wedding or summer wedding, whilst the wedding cakes below can be perfect for a fall wedding or winter wedding. I love them all!!

Ladies, check out Fortnum Mason in London to see the beautiful wedding cake creations by Peggy Porschen, the wedding-cake maker goddess. Having studied architecture in university, I find it interesting how interior and architecture details are used in wedding cakes. Peggy took some of her inspirations from the very famous chandelier and clock tower of the store. The end result is fantastic and is truly very impressive. The wedding cakes are beautiful, elegant and are very bridal.
