Four Tier Wedding Cake: Arum Lilies

This four tier cake has an interesting story. The bride and groom from Gaborone wanted two wedding cakes of the same design and content - fruit cake with two chocolate cakes and one caramel cake. The first wedding cake was for Gaborone and the other one for Serowe. During the initial celebration, the top three layers were served and then i worked again on the base fruit cake to add new chocolate and caramel cakes. You can see the difference in the ferns that i decorated on the side of the cakes and made fresh bunch of arum lilies for the next cake. Interesting learnings.

Marriage Anniversary Cake:Eternal Vows and Remembrance

This wedding anniversary cake was made for a couple in Gaborone who wanted to celebrate their parent's marriage anniversary. We discussed everything online of the idea of how the cake should look like - the cherished photograph of their parents when they were young and had taken the eternal vow and how to create that moment ! The theme crystallised as a  suitcase with the book on top with their photograph and the verse and roses. I loved making the cake and the delicate heart shaped wine glasses with nestled up roses and feel so honoured to have added to the joy.
