Michelle's Wedding Cake

Not going to lie and say I was 100% happy with this cake, I made many mistakes and when it just isn't perfect I get really upset with myself! The fondant cracked REALLY bad on the bottom layer. THankfully it could be the back!

Here are the stats for my personal use:

10 batches white cake recipe
4 batches white chocolate frosting with strawberries added
triple batch of cream cheese decorators icing

this cake was pretty yummy. my favorite white cake I've made yet!!!

My first wedding cake!

At home!

Done and delivered

All in all this went so smoothly. I really enjoyed making it! I need some sort of "cake journal" or something to remember how I made each cake, but for now I'll use my blog. I used 17 batches of "wacky cake" and 5 batches of filling and a quadruple batch of wilton's buttercream icing (with half crisco/half butter). I covered it with 7.5 pounds of fondant. It was quite the undertaking but I started early in the week and everything went great. I hope that it tastes okay and that something weird doesn't happen to it between now and the end of the night! Oh and HELLO covering those cakes with fondant was a WORKOUT! Maybe it was because I was 7 months pregnant? :)

Each cake I make I feel like things get easier. I'm not as stressed out and I am faster. I was a little stressed transporting the thing, but most of the time I think I would be able to assemble the cake on site, but because of the branch and the fact taht I had never done it before, it just wasn't a possibility.
