From the very beginning of this cake decorating hobby of mine, I have never thought I would venture into tier cakes. When Karen (my hubby's cousin) saw what I did for my bro-in-law's engagement cake last May, she wanted me to do her engagement cake too. I agreed with her request but little did I know that she wanted a 2-tier cake! :D When she informed me of her intention, I almost chicken out.. I've never done a tier cake and I couldn't bare the stress and risk involving the construction of a stacked cake. However, after days of thinking and researching, I finally made up my mind to accept the challenge. I have been planning for this cake for almost 3 months and I was glad it turns out what I have planed, the designs and all. I'd like to specially thank my baking friend Ms. F, for her valuable advice and moral support in doing this project ..thanks so much dear :)
This 2-tier cake, 10" + 8" weighed around 8kg. Cake flavour was rich marble chocolate vanilla pound cake filled with vanilla buttercream and covered with homemade fondant icing. Obviously, the colour theme was a sophisticated and funky black and white.
Decorated with black & white lace flowers, satin ribbons and sugar pearls. Top tier was decorated with Lacey hearts meant to insert a bunch of exploding hearts.
I heart those exploding hearts....:)
A modern and classic, black & white engagement theme are timeless and sophisticated. Congratulations to Rayner and Karen on their engagement. Thanks so much for entrusting me on your centerpiece and letting me be a part of your occasion.
Wah...this is very beautiful...I'm speechless '0'
