snowflake wedding


So far this has to be one of my favorite cakes to make and thankfully the most uneventful (not to many bad surprises)



I got a phone call from some one who used to be in my ward (we were split in august) asking me if I would be interested in making her sister in law's wedding cake. Of course I said yes!!! I never actually met the bride, I worked through her sister and email, I eventually was given two pics to merge together.



I was so exited to make the snowflakes!!! They are royal frosting and quite fragile and I made like... a hundred :) a lot anyway. All the ones on the table were extras I decided would look nice as decoration.
The scariest part was the delivery, it needed to get to Ogden 40 miles away. Every bump made my heart skip! Almost all the snow flakes made it and the few that broke we were able to fix.



I got some amazing compliments from the family and still never got to see the bride. :) One of those compliments was that I did a better job on that cake than one the mother of the bride bought from Mikes Amazing Cakes. His cakes are... well, amazing. :)



I want to give a huge thank you to Megan who is my sidekick on a lot of the cakes I make and I will look forward to her coming home from her mission ready to take up that job again!
Also to Audrey who more often than not is the one left with the kids so I can make those deliveries.
