1/4 Sugarcoat
The delicate look of this cake comes from wafer paper—which was used for the leaves and petals, painted in soft, watercolour-like shades of green, lilac and pink, and accented in gold. More wafer paper was used to cover the cake to create an ombre effect, all to conceal a lemon and raspberry cake layered with buttercream.

4/4 Symphony Designer Cakes
This cake comes with a poetic name—Ode to Butterflies—and a sentimental backstory, starting from an architectural design covered with vanilla fondant to depict a house, as a symbol of a new stage in the couple’s lives, decorated with butterflies made from wafer paper to hark back to the feelings that the bride and groom had when they knew they had found their soulmate. This attention to detail extends to the cake—a pink velvet concoction layered with strawberry jam and champagne cream.
