First Calla Lily Cake

First Calla Lily Cake on Cake Central

This was the first carved wedding cake I ever did. I did it about two years ago, and it was also my first try at gumpaste calla lillies. The cakes were all carved, and the covered with fondant and a second layer of fondant was added for the stripes. The calla lillies were made to match the bridesmaid's gowns. The bride was a bit of a bridezilla about paying me claiming it wasn't what she wanted (she sent a pic over the net and I made no promises to duplicate exactly and worded contract to state that).

It did bother me at first that she didn't like it but I've had 3 brides since then say they wanted the design. Only one of them could fit it into her budget though, and her wedding was a week away, so I had to tell her..sorry...no go, not enough time.
