My old friend Mark-who has helped me immensely with my cake business-got married! He married a beautiful lady named Amy. The fact that Mark is a very successful caterer and his wedding was a cooperative effort of the best vendors in our area, was no reason for this humble baker to be nervous-no! I was not- well, OK, I was, a little, but once I decided on the design, I was full steam ahead. Mark wanted something local and seasonal and I loved the design of Amy's invitations so.... The cake was vanilla chiffon soaked with cognac, filled with fresh pumpkin mousse and pecan praline and iced with maple buttercream. The design piped on the outside was little allium flowers from the invitations that were doing an intimate dance. The tan creamy color of the buttercream matched the burlap on the service tables and the log cake stand mirrored the grounded elegance of the affair and the bride and groom. Congratulations Mark and Amy! I was so proud to be there and be part of it! May your life be full of sweetness!
