A few months ago Carrie met the sweetest woman Named Linda McClure. Linda was the first person to figure out how to use the Cricut on her wedding cakes… She says it drove her crazy trying to figure it out, but once she got it she has created a wedding cake MONSTER! PEOPLE LOVE THIS IDEA! Thank you Linda!
Back in October Linda came out to Utah to teach Carrie how to use the Cricut on our wedding cakes. This is the newest and MOST fun way to create wedding cakes. It has a completely different look to it! Carrie and I have talked a TON about these cakes and she is really excited to start implementing it on the wedding cakes for this Upcoming Wedding Season.
We had a few bridal shows that we attended back in January and we needed some new display cakes to show our brides the photos below are what Carrie and here crew came up with. Aren’t they exquisite!
The first cake is on our website, we simply called it “Shilouette.” It is a 5 [five] tier stacked wedding cake with all the detailing in black gum-paste. The Cricut really has so many different designs that we could have gone CRAZY trying to pick designs! Don’t forget though if you do not need a cake to serve this many people is available in different sizes and colors.
We also wanted a cake that would really “hit home” with the brides that don’t want the traditional wedding cake. Carrie wanted to make something that was really different! So we took a spin off of one of our other popular cake the “Lindsey“, it has beautiful chocolate inlay swirls, and to change it we pleated the fondant to give a funky texture. I love this one and when we showed it at the bridal shows it really was a hit. The crowd loved it. If you want to order this cake it is also on our website it is called the “Shelby.” Named after one of Carrie’s assistants that helped make the cake!
With this 3 tier square, extra deep, green goody,we wanted a cake that would show off the tiny delicate, lacy patterns that the Cricut could do. Once again mission accomplished! It was a huge hit at the shows also, the girls really liked that they could pick a lacy pattern similar to their lace on their wedding dress and have it put all over the cakes. This cake is on our website, if you would like to order it we named it the “Josette.”
{If square is not your style don’t forget you can change the shape, size and color.}
And last is the best of all! Well in my opinion, I LOVE the princess style cakes! This is a very classy, pale yellow cake. Carrie carves out some of the tiers to have that beautiful scalloped look. Then one of Carrie’s other assistant Rita (another daughter in law), embellished the whole cake with different piped patterns and put on a few small groupings of rolled ribbon roses made out of fondant. It is a rather large eye catcher, it’s 6 tiers! A cake this size would serve somewhere around 375 of you guest a reception size slice. THAT’S lot of cake!
Out of all of the Show cakes we made this year this one is by far my favorite! Again it is available in different colors and sizes. If you want to order this cake from our website it is called the “Claire.”
I hope you enjoyed this post of all of our new patterns and styles. And we really hope it gave you some new ideas! Feel free to leave comments!
