Daniella and Evan


"Just wanted to let you know that the cake looked fabulous and it was delicious. We have the top cake in our freezer because it was too beautiful to cut.." - The Bride

Evan and Daniella wanted something simply delicious but not fussy for their relaxed spring wedding. They agreed that a cupcake tower was the answer. In order to carry the theme of the wedding to their cupcakes, a black and ivory palette was used and the damask pattern from their invitations was stenciled on to the top cake. The cupcakes themselves were created with dipped ice cream cones in mind. In fact, they are Hi-hat cupcakes: a moist chocolate cake with caramel whipped cream filling, piped high with marshmallowy vanilla meringue then dipped in chocolate. The alternate cupcakes are piped with a swirl of vanilla buttercream for those with a craving for something richer.
