So In Love


Aaahhh.... love.  I'm not talking about romantic love, but the love of weddings and wedding cake.  Well, maybe those could be in the category of romantic love too.  I know I've fallen in love with a few pieces of sweet decadence giving my heart away for just one more bite.

One of the best parts of the wedding cake process is introducing new flavors or flavor combos to a bride and groom for their big day.  Sometimes, though, couples have their own love affairs with certain flavors or pastries they've enjoyed since childhood.  In this case the bride and groom were in love Love LOVE with eclairs.  So we took on the challenge of creating a cake that mimicked the tasty pastry.




The cake seen here is filled with bavarian cream and covered with chocolate ganache. The dark brown hue of the chocolate provided a dynamic background to showcase the sugar flowers atop.  A dynamic cake inspired by a dynamic bride and groom.

My beloved and I were lucky enough to try this creation at the wedding.  I only wish I had taken a picture of my piece of bavarian bliss but was lost, starry-eyed in love, as I savored every last bite.



So in love are we two,
No one else but me and you.
So in love, (Two, so in love.)
So much in love. (Two, so in love.)



xo,
Connie
