Invitation-Inspired Wedding Cake

I just love easy brides. Christina was a very easy bride. She asked me to design her wedding cake based on her invitation.

At first I wanted to recreate the design all the way around each tier, but then I thought it was too busy. I emailed her the sketch to show her how it would look with the design both all around and sporadically placed. I thought for sure she would want to tweak it, but she loved the sketch just the way it was. I told you she was easy.

I covered the cake in ivory fondant to match the invitation and piped the design with royal icing.

The reception was at George’s Greek Cafe on Pine Street in Long Beach. Thanks to Josh McMurtrie for providing these pictures.

And thanks to Christina for being such an easy bride.
