Heart Wedding Cake

All Photos and design from The Art of The Wedding Cake

Cake designer Erica O'Brien posted a tutorial on how to make this unique cake on her site The Art of The Wedding Cake.  The gradation of colors from dark to light give this cake a 'WOW' factor.  Not only that, Erica shows you how to make some extra hearts to use as favors for either a wedding, shower or even a little girl's birthday party.  

Using Wilton Meringue, 2 Cups of sugar, warm water, paste food coloring, a large cutting board, parchment paper, and Ateco aspic cutters or small cookie cutters. Visit Erica's site for exact directions as well as additional 'how to' photos.  (You can pick up most of these items at your local craft store.)

I didn't try to make a wedding cake but did make some of the hearts, it's easy and was an afternoon of fun.  I used them to decorate some cupcakes since I didn't need a three tier wedding cake! Give it a try!

Wedding Cakes Decorated With Fabric? Real or Memorex?

I've never seen a wedding cake like this one featured on A Matter Of Taste.  It is a sugar pasted two tier cake wrapped in sugar paste so it resembles fabric.  It's decorated with roses that also look as though they are made of fabric that are made from modelling paste so they really do look like fabric roses.  The bride had a gold color scheme but you could use roses in any color scheme.  .
