Roxana



 
This cake was for a beautiful bride Roxana.
The cake is an orange cake with a mandarin orange cream filling. This is a new cake recipe I have developed using fresh orange juice and orange zest. It’s covered with vanilla butter cream and vanilla fondant.
The bride and grooms initials are hand piped on the front of the cake and surrounded by fondant accents and teal and yellow roses. Each layer is bordered with silver fondant pearls.
 
The first time I made this orange cake I made it in cupcakes and frosted it with an orange chocolate frosting. It was a huge hit. The orange cream filling is a fun variation as well.

Ashley




 
I got to do this fun cake for my niece Ashley for her wedding shower.
It's a nice vanilla cake with chocolate raspberry filling and cream cheese icing.
The cake is topped off with some fondant ribbon roses in her colors of teal and coral.
I'm so happy for you Ashley and thank you again for letting me do this for you.
 
For my students, I'll show how to make these roses in a future post. :)

Dog lovers :)
