2 Minature Wedding Cakes

Made of brownie instead of cake, made to replicate the full-sized version.

9 Centerpeices

These cakes were the final results used as centerpieces at a beautiful wedding reception.

Each cake is done in styrofoam and fondant. Technically, they should last indefinately.

Another Mini Wedding Cake

I had to make two of these so I tried this one a little differently.

First, I folded the streaming ribbons a little more, and made the bows a little "bunchier".

Then I added the dots to the top and bottom tier. I purposely left the middle alone to make the dots stand our more. I really like it, although I'm still undecided whether I like it more than none at all. Hmmm...

Wedding Cake Demo

In the preparations for the upcoming wedding, I thought I was going to have to make at least 12 cake certerpieces. Luckily, that was cut down to 9 cake centerpeices.

However, 2 more cakes were added. These 2 are going to be tiered mini-cakes that will go on the guest book table and the photo table. I decided it would be cute to make these to match the wedding cake. Here is the first one.

The cake stands about 6 inches tall. I need a little work getting the ribbons to hang the same length, but this is good practice for working out kinks on the full-sized version.
