Plum Wedding Cake


If there's one thing you have to be able to do to be a cake decorator, it's react on short notice whenever possible. This wedding cake came about after a Friday evening phone call asking if I could have a wedding cake ready for pick up in about 36 hours. In many cases I would have had to say no but as it turned out I could pull it off this time. The bride's only request was for the cake to look elegant, with sugar pearls and a small splash of plum purple to match her wedding color scheme. This is what I came up with. The cake underneath is red velvet with a cream cheese icing.

  1. Just wanted to say a big thank you for making my cake on such short notice. It turned out beautiful. Everyone loved it. We added ivory and plum color flowers on top of the cake for the last touch. The color of the icing and the pearls were perfect.
