Black & White Damask Wedding

This has to be one of my favorite cakes that we did recently. The bride wanted the cake to be black & white Damask. Now, normally, we just do black Damask royal icing on a white fondant-covered cake, but for this one we alternated the tiers with black and white fondant. Then, we used the opposite color for the royal icing Damask pattern.

Oh, and this was my FIRST time attempting the Damask technique!

Isn't it purdy???

I thought so. And when we arrived to deliver the cake, I thought it matched the rest of the wedding PERFECTLY!

I love this black & white candy favor bar:

And while I was zipping around taking photos, I noticed the hubs was slowly, silently wandering the room. What was he doing? Checking out the air conditioning. That's what an HVAC mechanical engineer does...checks out the venting and duct work in EVERY building we go to. Joy!


The room decorations and event planning were done by Adore Events. Check out their page for some before & after shots and more photos from the wedding.
