Gold and Aqua roses

We love making cakes that are a little different from the norm and the aqua coloured ribbons alongside the gorgeous rich gold ribbons on this cake were truly a head turner. Gareth and Gary had definite ideas of their colour scheme which we love. It makes the final item much clearer in our minds too! Gareth had seen another of our cakes on our Facebook page which had a cascade of roses trailing down the front of the cake and found his perfect wedding cake in it.
 
The roses are all handmade and we spent an almost unthinkable amount of time making the individual rose petals to make up the larger roses to dress this cake.(tip: when you think you've made enough, double it. We do this often with our Daisy cake. The base tier absolutely eats them up and whilst there looks like plenty, they often get used up on this tier alone!!)

I just love the tumbling effect of the roses down the tiers of the cake and the two colours work perfectly together and in the venue which was Knowsley hall and alongside the Stationery from Dragonfly.
