Weddings and Sunflowers

Who doesn't love weddings?! I love weddings so you can imagine my excitement when for the second time in a month I was asked to do a cake for a wedding shower.  This was for a friend that was hosting the shower.

The wedding colors are a grey and yellow (beautiful combination!).  The cake was a two-tier red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting.  It took me awhile to decide how to decorate the cake, but I finally decided decided on polka dots and flowers.  I also knew the cake was going to be topped with real sunflowers so I wanted to do something that would incorporate the sunflowers.

The yellow accents are tiny flower fondant cutouts and I just placed those sporadically to give the cake some spontaneity and a little pop of color.  Here are pictures of the cake before and after the sunflowers were added:


To anyone who may be getting married soon - best wishes and hope your cake is delicious!
