Sea Inspired Wedding

The absolute most adorable couple 
met at the chapel this afternoon
and vowed to love each other forever...


and I was invited
to be apart of their
awesome celebrations!

The Cake

Fresh banana cake decorated in blue ombre buttercream, white buttercream coral, edible "sand" and white chocolate sea shells. My favorite accent to the cake are those adorable little "kissing" goldfish.



The Cupcakes
{Esty Shop where I bought cupcake wrappers}
Unbirthday Cake - Confetti cake topped with sour cream chocolate frosting and more sweet sprinkles!

Lemon Cream Pie - Vanilla bean cake filled with zesty lemon curd and topped with vanilla cream cheese frosting and lemon infused sugar.

Banana Pudding - Fresh banana cake topped with vanilla cream cheese frosting, toasted pecans and a caramel drizzle.

The Favors

Sugar cookies adorned with two fondant goldfish {in love, of course} and white chocolate "bubbles." I finished them with a little disco dust for sparkle!




Ree and Lance were 
some of the sweetest clients 
and deserve nothing but the best!

Elegant Seashell Cupcake Tower

A super sweet couple were married Saturday ... and I enjoyed being apart of their celebrations!

After their beach ceremony, the guests were escorted into the Ocean Reef Resort - off 71st Ave in Myrtle - where the beautiful ballroom awaited...


The couple decided on a simple, but elegant look for their Cupcake Tower. The flavors included Vanilla Bean and Dark Chocolate Fudge. All cupcakes were frosted in Vanilla Buttercream and topped with edible "sand" and a White Chocolate or Dark Chocolate Sea Shell. 


The topper cake was Marble in flavor and also frosted in Vanilla Buttercream. The textured buttercream design can be found all throughout bridal magazines at the moment - very chic, very elegant. To finish off the cake, edible "sand" was added for a little sparkle and a bride and groom chocolate starfish accented the tiers.


When I returned to help clean up and break down my area, I was able to talk with the newly weds. {Which is a rare treat!} They were absolutely delighted with the results!

Congratulations to the Poston's!! I wish your family all the best in the world! Thank you so much for inviting me in on your special celebrations!

An Autumn Wedding

On Sunday, October 17th, a super cute couple tied the knot in beautiful
Mount Pleasant, S.C. It was a gorgeous reception area adorned with fall accents in yellow, orange and red. To help them and their guests celebrate, I prepared a fun and chic cupcake tower:

The cupcakes consisted of Red Velvet, Smore's, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Banana Split, Chocolate Mint and Rocky Road. Each had their own autumn inspired topping including sugar leaves and acorns, chocolate branches and truffles and fondant confections.


The topper cake was made of the couple's favorite flavor, Red Velvet and was topped with Vanilla Buttercream. Sugar leaves and chocolate branches finished off the cake in the wedding's theme.


Not only are the newly weds great, but they're thoughtful, too! October 17th was not only their wedding day, but a sister's birthday...to include her special day in their big day, they asked for me to make her a small cake to sit near the wedding cake. It was chocolate cake with a marshmallow filling and decorated to match the wedding cake.


I love fall more than any other season...and these pictures just gave me another reason to prefer it even more! I'm very happy how these turned out, but more importantly, I'm appreciative to have been able to be apart of such a beautiful wedding day!

Mark and Sara's Wedding


A few months ago, a super sweet couple got in touch with me about their wedding cake...but they really wanted something different. I {of course!} suggested gourmet cupcakes! They loved the idea!!

So, at their tasting we came up with the menu and theme. With a beach theme in mind, we decided to add seashells, sand and the colors blue and green...but, the
bride-to-be did not want them all to look the same. She told me how much she liked each cake's "own little personality!" {She put that so perfectly - exactly how I feel!} So, this is what I designed for her:


The topper was my Fresh Banana Cake filled and topped with Vanilla Buttercream. The buttercream coral and chocolate sea shells incorporated their theme.



The cupcake flavors included Vanilla Bean, Pumpkin Spice, Banana Walnut, Smore's, Chocolate Fluffanutter and Sugar & Spice.


I also labeled one cupcake per flavor and displayed them under a glass dome in order for the guests to be able to tell one from another.


Thank you so much for inviting me to be apart of your special day! I am excited about how your cupcake tower turned out - cute as a button! Congratulations to you both!

WV Groom's Cake



I am super lucky to be apart of a beautiful and fun wedding weekend. The bride and groom-to-be are huge West Virgina fans, so when it came time to talk about groom's cake ideas, it was a no brainer!

Here is the design I came up with:


This is my Charleston Style Pound cake covered in Vanilla Buttercream. The flying WV was super easy to make thanks to the pan provided by the bride. She also wanted to somehow incorporate the wedding's beachy theme, so I added waves, brown sugar "sand" and chocolate sand dollars in the bottom corners.



This was such a fun idea!! I hope you guys enjoy the rehearsal dinner and I'll see you both tomorrow!

Wedding Cake 9.18.10

A few months ago I met with a sweet couple from Ohio who were in search of the perfect southern touches for their wedding. They had attended a friend's wedding in Charleston, SC a year ago and fell in love with the area and it's lifestyle. After some consideration, they decided to have a destination wedding- southern style!

Many Charlestonian elements were incorporated throughout the wedding and the one which inspired my cake design was the intricate wrought iron gates found throughout the city. Here's the picture I based my design on:


Using my favorite parts of this gate, I broke it up a bit and used one element per tier. This is what I came up: Simple yet designed!


{The black & white picture shows the details a little better...}
This is my Charleston Style Pound cake with a Fresh Strawberry Preserve filling and covered in Vanilla Buttercream. The detail work was also done in buttercream and accented with fresh hydrangeas.

Congratulations, Mary and Jeff!

Chuck's Favorite Things

This past weekend, I was able to be apart of a very special wedding...

And it all started with with this cake:


Reese's and Diet Mountain Dew Groom's Cake



This was my moist chocolate cake topped with vanilla buttercream and bordered with mini white chocolate Reese's cups. I handmade the Reese's package and Diet Mountain Dew can out of rice crispy treats and marshmallow fondant. Green and orange rock candy gave a little sparkle to the cake and was topped with a bride and groom peanut butter cup.

I had such a good time creating this cake...it turned out great and the couple and their guests enjoyed it at their backyard rehearsal dinner!
