Another Bridal Shower Cake…for a young bride and groom….!!!
The cake was decorated with some “oceanic” touches ….since the groom is a graduate of the Naval Academy….
According to the hostess…the bride’s aunt…who reported that…. “The cake was loved by all the guests…and some went back for a second slice!”
The cake was a simple Vanilla base, and filled with a Vanilla flavored butter cream and home made Strawberry Jam. Each cake layer was sprinkled with drops of brandy to ensure a little spark with each bite. The cake was iced/covered with the same Vanilla buttercream, then refrigerated over night. Next morning the cake was covered with whipped cream, that had little spots of pale blue color….a little water/wave touch…. and decorated with Nautical ornaments which were made from white chocolate…
It is a great honor to be asked to make a “special” cake with a “thought” in mind for an occasion that is a memorable time in people’s lives… I love the creativity in composing such a cake that will be a “memory” for a lifetime…

Toll – Sehr schoen und natuerlich auch lecker wenn es von Wien (Europa) kommt – sehe so viele Torten in Amerika die zwar optisch schoen sind aber furchtbar oder ganz ohne Geschmack schmecken. Wow, beautiful and delicious since its a Viennese recipe. So many American cakes are stunning visually but are either bland, too sweet or just awful. I too love being asked to bake German goods for special occasions – Hut ab!
Nicole….Du hast tatsächlich recht…die Torten in America sind wirklich so wie Du sie beschrieben hast….fast nicht geniessbar…..Ich fülle und dekoriere meine Torten mit einer Vanilla “Creme Patissiere” ….und selbstgemachter Erdbeermarmelade …order Pfirsichmarmelade… ich mache alle meine Frucht Marmeladen selber… oft sind die Torten dann überstrichen mit Sahne…und dekoriert mit frische Rosen oder andere Blumen in der Saison…
Vielen Dank fur Deinen Besuch auf meinem Blog….
Herzlichst…
