Hi All! Many of you have been asking for pix of the cake with the sugar Calla Lilies -- well here it is! The photographer, Claudio Cambon, was working in The Terrace Room of the Sunset Tower Hotel (the same room Vanity Fair hosts their Oscar party in every year). He had almost nothing but candlelight to shoot by, so I was really happy to see these shots of the cake, taken by candlelight.
This cake was a champagne cake filled with hazelnut buttercream and iced with a white swiss buttercream. The bands are gumpaste, tinted to match the couple's wedding stationery, and the Calla Lilies are handmade sugar flowers by yours truly. For more on the flowers, see my post in early April about the process of making them.
Thanks Claudio, and congratulations Darcine and Howard!
Andrea,
ReplyDeleteI am SO impressed by everything your doing. Your site looks amazing, every one of your production looks like a work of art and the recipe descriptions are mouth watering.
So glad you're pursuing your passion and doing it with so much talent. you should be proud.
