Snowflake Wedding Cake
This was my second wedding cake, and I am just thrilled how it turned out! It is 3 tiers, 16"-12"-8", key lime cake with key lime filling, fudge brownie cake with Bailey's Irish Cream mousse, and white cake with chocolate hazelnut mousse, covered in IMBC. The snowflakes are RI with fondant pearls in the center and the pearls scattered randomly on the cake, which are dusted with pearl dust. I think the pearls made the cake! The photographer loved this shot so much he is using it for his portfolio.
Beautiful! Your snowflakes are perfectF!

Thank you everybody! I had such a difficult time with making the snowflakes, but in the end, after three tries, they turned out finally. So many people here helped and I couldn't have done it without CC, truly.
A beauty - love it! Congrats to you on a gorgeous cake! :wink:
WOW!!! I love this cake and the different flavors sound devine!!!!
Your snowflakes look perfect. I'm envious! Great job. Beautiful. Did you pipe them freehand or use a template? How far in advance did you let them sit?
For the snowflakes I did use a template--several I found searching on the internet. I made these just last week, several days before the wedding. My first two batches crumbled on me, so it was kind of stressful. Thankfully several people here on CC walked me through exactly what I needed to do to keep them strong. CC is a wonderful place!
Thanks for the response. I saved this in my favorites.
I can't get over how perfect your snowflakes are!! Your cake looks beautiful and sounds absolutely delicious
