Wedding Cakes and Gingerbread

Happy New Year! I hope your 2009 is off to a wonderful beginning - Last week I was in KC for D's best friend's wedding. Below is the wedding cake and groom's cake I created for the big day! I must admit I have never been to a wedding where my cake was served and completely devoured... it was an amazing sight. The wedding cake consisted of three tiers of fun-fetti and two tiers of chocolate with rasphberry filling.




My favorite carrot cake recipe (with currants and walnuts) was baked for the groom's cake...




Gingerbread making with the M family has become a tradition in our family. Here is the this year's village. The M kids came up with the idea that our village this year was going to have a house and treehouse for the M family, D and M's house, and Ms. A's bakery - The Marrying Cake... this day of baking and creating was truly the highlight of our holidays!



This is the inside of the bakery... we came up with the wonderful desserts ourselves!
