A pretty little cake for a spring wedding, We trimmed this beauty up with double satin bridal white ribbon overlaid with a simple strip of lace then piped on hundreds of individual pearls.
Shimmering the pearls after they were set helped to compliment the shimmer of the ribbon and to make the pearls more pearl like.
A gorgeous little posy of delicate flowers sat on the top four inch tier and we took a single flower to sit lower down the cake. I do this often when there are flowers on top as it helps to tie the topper in with the rest of the cake and also if they are fresh flowers, to tie the cake in with the rest of the day.
This simple cake is so versatile and can be changed in so many ways to compliment individual weddings- colour of ribbon, colour of pearls, lace or no lace, flowers...
As I sit here and type this post on a delightfully blue sky day, I think a perfect filling for this cake would our gorgeous lemon cake with lemon curd and lemon cream.
