Two for Two Cakes: Part 2 - Real Cake!

Filed under real wedding, vendor, wedding cake

Last week, I introduced you to Alison O. of Two for Two Cakes. Here's a real wedding she was happy to share with us:

The cake was for a couple who were having a very traditional but fun ceremony. They are young and wanted their cake to represent that, but also to be a little bit elegant. This is why they went with a muted color palette of ivory, pearl, gold and a light terracotta. Surrounding the cake on the table were favors that Alison made for the guests. Each box contained a miniature sized cupcake in one of the four flavors that the cake consisted of: Aunt Chickie's Red Velvet, Bea's Banana, Aunt Jean's Chocolate Chip, and Traditional Wedding Cake with Organic Strawberries.
