Mr and Mrs Bloom

Charlie_Eddie_WeddingCake_01

I feel very lucky to have been able to make all my friends that got married this year a cake for their weddings. Like this little cake I made for my friends Charlie and Eddie. Since they were getting married in France (you can see snippets of their incredible wedding over on my instagram!) they were to have a small registry office wedding the week before. They asked me to make something to have after at their post-registry lunch celebrations. I wanted it to feel like a proper little wedding cake so went for an extra tall two tier cake. To give it a bit more wedding cake presence I displayed it on a tall pink cake stand and finished it with a topper that observed their new title ‘Mr and Mrs Bloom’. Let me tell you about the insides before I tell you about the exterior decorations. So I had

It was such an honour to be a part of their big day, not only getting to be a Bridesmaid but to make the wedding cake for your favourite people was beyond special.

Planning and designing the cake with them was so much fun – there was a lot of Pinterest boards, cake tasting and discussions on sizes. For the cake I stuck with

Gossip Girl Cake

Confession. I still haven’t finished watching Gossip Girl. It was one of those situations when you’re waiting for a friend to watch it, you binge watch a few series together, get distracted and never finish. One day I’ll get to the end – although Googling things for this cake gave away some pretty huge spoilers… It’s a bit strange I never finished watching it considering how much I loved the books. I liked all the characters and I adore New York so loved that it was set there. I was asked to make this Gossip Girl themed birthday cake for Kiana’s 16th. When designing the cake I wanted to include
