Antique Red Rose Wedding Cake!

Here’s an eye-catching wedding cake we created for a ceremony this weekend. We were asked to make a three tiered creation incorporating red roses. We kept a lovely traditional look to this cake by only adding small details such as the quilted and pearl studded board, royal icing pearl borders and fondant Neo-classical inspired frames alternating on each tier. The dramatic deep red roses were to remain the key focal aspect of this cake so we made them a little more playful by adding curled fondant rose petals drifting down the sides.

A total of 40 hand made gumpaste roses adorn the top and sides with bright pops of green rose leaves. The small fondant rose petals were added as a finishing touch to create a romantic yet slightly whimsical feel to an otherwise dramatic wedding cake.

We love the detailed frames which are somewhat reminiscent of Neo-classical medallion backed chairs. Adding these to each tier of the cake helped to incorporate texture and dimension as well as a wonderfully theatrical antique look to the end result.

We thoroughly enjoyed working on this design as we got to play with some elegant yet dramatic ideas from crafting dozens of red roses to the idea of incorporating an antique aspect in the design.
