Don’t Mess With This Bride’s Ice Cream

Or specifically for this girl? Her ice cream cake.

It took just one uninspiring cake tasting for us to decide that a regular wedding cake wasn’t for us. We knew early on that a traditional “cake-decorator-spends-hours-on-it-making-every-flower-under-the-sun-out-of-gum-paste” cake was not going to be something we’d like to spend a chunk of money on but we realized we …

Mo+Boy Tie the Knot: Cutting the (Cup)cake

{Catch up on all of Mo’s previous recaps here}

I forgot about the cupcakes. Me, of all people, forgot about eating the cupcakes. At one point the coordinator told me we should probably find a good place to stop and do the cake cutting, and then I looked at her in my daze of being the bride and …

I’m a Sucker for Ruffles (and Other Ramblings)

It’s a very snowy day here in the Philadelphia area, which gives me the opportunity to have a bit of wedding related fun.  All things wedding-y have been put on the back burner as of late, but 16ish inches of snow and a day free of other responsibilities gives me some time to play catch-up.

So ruffles.  I love them.  Seriously, …

Farm Wedding Inspiration

I fell in love with this adorable farm wedding shoot from SH Weddings and Hanle Productions the moment I set eyes on it. The cozy little sweetheart table with glass bottle centerpieces, the cake that looks like it came straight from your grandmother’s kitchen, and the decorate-your-own cupcake station? All things straight out of my fabulous things list. …

Homemade Cheesecake Wedding Cake

I hesitate to write about my homemade wedding cake because, unfortunately, the only finished picture I have is in my mind. You will need a lot of vision to understand what I am attempting to explain!

I am baking a New York-Style classic cheesecake wedding cake with one four-tiered cake in the center and four individual single layer cakes surrounding it. …
