Mr. and Mrs. Rau's Wedding



As promised we are showcasing another of our happy couple's kreation.

It is not always possible to work with brides in person and on this occasion most of the planning was done via e-mail. Yes it can be done! Jennifer and Nick got married in June and it was such an honor to be a part of their special day.



Everyone has been asking us about this kake so here you go... This gorgeous creation was designed for Nick and Jennifer Rau's wedding, and Kara Pennington took this awesome photograph. Isn't it cool?



"Our cake was nothing short of AMAZING! We are from Virginia and had to do most of the wedding planning from afar. Kathy and Erika were so wonderful to work with and so helpful with all of our questions. Kathy sat down with the two of us and really let us design our dream cake. The end result was better than we ever imagined! My grandmother, mother-in-law, and I are all quilters and Kathy was able to create a quilted tier. We were impressed. The best part was the cake tasted wonderful! Most weddings we had been to the cake was nothing to note but we had so many complements from our guests on the cake; it was amazing. We offered guests to take extra pieces home and nothing was left at the end of the night. Thank you so much for adding a spectacular looking and tasting cake to our wedding!"

8-8-08 Wedding Elizabeth and Jimi

This year there were many couples saying "I Do" on 8-08-08. We had the privilege of creating a Wedding cake design for a special couple on this day. Jimi and Elizabeth were one of many couples getting married on 8-08-08. They were a delight to work with.

Elizabeth wanted to incorporate butterflies and Jimi wanted to make sure that there was an infinity symbol on the cake as well.

We love taking couples ideas and thoughts and creating their cake unique to their personality and styles.

With this cake we had beautiful drapery work, sugar flowers and butterflies, and we incorporated the infinity symbol on each tier and even added little jewels to the centers of the stephanotis flowers. The flavors were our signature wedding white with a filling of a luscious blend of guava and butter cream(yes you can do that!). Even though there were many other colors throughout the reception, Elizabeth told me she wanted the cake to match them and be the centerpiece of the reception, and we aim to please.


"I have to tell you that the cake was awesome. My family couldn't believe it was wedding cake. They said it was too good! I had men tell me it was the best cake they ever tasted. On top of it all the art was beautiful. Thank you again for listening and making such a beautiful piece of art I will always remember!"

It just goes to show that you can have your gorgeous cake and eat it too! It was such a pleasure to create this work of art for Elizabeth and Jimi.

We wish you a long and happy marriage!
