September and October Cakes





Here are some cakes that I created in September and October. I made the wedding cake for two friends that were married in Ithica, NY. It had two layers chocolate cake, chocolate mousse, and fresh raspberries and one layer almond cake, pastry cream, and poached pears. It was finished with vanilla Italian buttercream.

The four tiered cakes were about four inches tall a piece and were for the bachelorette party. They were a genoise soaked in a white wine syrup, with apricot filling, white chocolate glaze, and gumpaste decorations.

The birthday cake was a collaborative piece that I did with a very talented chef from San Francisco. It was a mocha custard filled chocolate cake topped with ganache. Amongst other things, he contributed the chocolate pencils and freesia forest. I made the the gumpaste chickadees.
