Pictures Of Rustic Natural Messy Looking Wedding Cakes
Decorating By Justbeck101 Updated 21 Nov 2008 , 2:00am by Melan
Does anyone have any pics of a rustic messy looking wedding cake? Like the kind where the icing is not smoothed out, but more so than just a little messy. The bride brought me a picture of one, it is white and I think it has white chocolate leaves on it. Please post a pic if you have one or email me, Thanks
Sorry I no long have a pic but it sure isn't easy to make 'messy' icing when we have worked sooooooo hard to smooth them
!
I used gp sticks, acorns, and greens.
To mess up the icing, use the back of a spoon to make 1/2 circles in a slightly thicker icing than you would normally use.
This works good using Earlene Moore's Cream Cheese Buttercream recipe.
Here's a rustic cake I did. The icing texture was made by holding my spatula straight up-and-down, and flicking my wrist a little bit.

Thank you for the pic, but I need much messier!!! hahaha She showed me a pic, I just wanted to get some more ideas.
Thanks though
This isn't exactly a rustic wedding cake 
, but it does have messy icing. Not sure if what you are looking for, so I figured I would throw it on here in case it helps you.
Here's another rustic cake I used the back of a soup spoon
Yes, those are more like what she is looking for, the snow one is alot like the pic. I am not sure if it is called rustic or not though!
Here's one that I did for a bride last summer. She wanted a blueberry theme with a rustic finish so I wove some artificial blueberry springs together and incorporated some brown ribbon to make the swag. I also did one in chocolate buttercream with mixed chocolate curls/shavings but I think this one might be more helpful to you. Good luck with your cake.
Here's another one that has a rustic style. Although mine has a fondant finish, the design is one that could be easily used for a "messy" buttercream finish. It's not my design - my bride brought me a picture so unfortunately I can't give credit to the original cake designer. It's on a real block of wood (covered in clear contact paper) with silk birds and artificial twigs.

I love that idea!! with the real block of wood... how creative!!
I will have to keep that in mind. Im dying to do something more "earthy" or nature relate. It has a very classy look. Love the tall tiers
Here is the cake that I did for my brother and SIL. They wanted fruit flan and rustic. I did it by spinning the cake on a turntable and using the tip of my spatula.

It looks easy to do, but then I have been trying to make icing perfect for so long I don't want to short change the look she is asking for.

This was actually tougher to do than I expected. I just couldn't find the right tool to use -and I tried many things. What ended up working for me a small spatula, silicone, that is in the shape of a spade. I found it at KMart, just walked past it and it caught my eye. It's small, the actual silicone part is about an inch and a half long... but it worked like a charm! I just put a thick crumb coat... not too thick but a little thicker than usual. I then used that spatula and basically spackled it on.... Not the best description but please let me know if you have any other questions... I took me a while to get the hang of it but then I was excited with the results! good luck!
