We picked our wedding cake flavors and design a while ago and I just realized that I never wrote about it! Well, after trying many amazing cakes we decided on the following flavors:
Chocolate Hazelnut
A creamy milk chocolate infused with hazelnuts made into
a creamy mousse. Then we add more toasted hazelnuts and
layered it between our chocolate buttermilk cake
Citrus with Lemon Curd
Zesty lemon butter cake layered with mascarpone cream
and your choice of our tangy lemon or lime curd
Citrus with Lime Curd and Raspberries
Same as the Citrus and Lemon Curd cake, but with lime curd and fresh raspberries
Rustic Pear
A spice cake made with our own pear butter and bits of
dark chocolate layered with a spiced rum mascarpone cream
We will have a tiered wedding cake, and then some extra cupcakes on the side to make sure there is enough cake for everyone. Here is a picture of what we want our cake to look like:
The flowers will be similar to the ones we have in the bouquets, and the center pieces. I love the spatulaed (is that a word???) look of the frosting. I think it looks a lot more natural (and edible!) than fondant. You cant do quite as intricate designs with butter cream as you can with fondant, but we both wanted an elegant and simple cake so it works out great. I love the look of fresh flowers on a cake!
What do you think of the flavors and the design?
And they lived happily ever after...
