Wedding: The Cake


Our cake sketch from Sweet & Saucy: sugar flowers galore!




All the flowers on the cake were handmade sugar flowers!


Our cake flavors: 2 tiers of banana cake with bavarian cream and fresh bananas (my favorite!), 2 tiers of vanilla cake with chocolate ganache, peanut butter cream cheese frosting and carmel drizzle and 1 tier of vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream.


The cake table was covered in fresh flowers underneath the glass topper!
