Wishing the couple infinite years of happiness and togetherness! 🎂    As we are about to kick off the wedding season, I would like to share the news that our family is leaving Cincinnati this summer to relocate to Philadelphia. Cincinnati has been our home for the past 17 years. This was the place were our kids were born and the city that fully embraced my Sugar kingdom. We are excited for the future and optimistic that the City of Brotherly Love will bring as much happiness to each member of the family and to this small business of mine, as Cinci did. With tremendous gratitude, I say farewell to my beloved Queen City, and to its warm and special people! We will be saying goodbye with a bang, as we have lined up spectacular designs for spectacular clients! We will leave town in July, and our last order is scheduled for early June. Cheers to one last memorable wedding season in Cincinnati!!! #sugarrealm #cincinnatiweddingcakes#cincinnatiweddings #philadelphiaweddings #philadelphiaweddingcakes
I LOVE to create new designs for styled shoots and to contribute with new teams of creative vendors, On this occasion, we explores textures and hues of deep purples, inspired by the design principles and color palettes chosen for the shoot. The result of our design was dramatic and with so much dimension! You may want to scroll down to see all the beauty that other creative partners produced for this fun collaboration!
 From Alex, the planning master mind behind this styled shoot, BridalGush,
"The first time I laid eyes on The Estate at Sunset Farm it had my mind racing with ideas of grandeur. Drawing upon inspiration from Old Hollywood Glamour, I set off to design an event that elicited feelings of a sophisticated 1950s dinner party. Rich hues of plum and hunter green accented by delicate touches of gold provide a lavish feel. A bouquet filled with lush florals dripping with colors of maroon, plum, and violet pops against the Bride’s ivory off the shoulder fitted trumpet dress. The addition of emerald and gold accessories combined with a faux fur stole and silk opera gloves provides the finishing touches to this glamorous bridal look. The towering purple and gold wedding cake is a true show stopper with its mixture of marbling texture and delicate flowers. Beautiful vintage furnishings and truly gush-worthy hand torn paper goods complete the look for an overall wedding inspiration shoot oozing with touches of refined beauty. Scroll down to see more from this shoot and check out the amazing group of vendors that worked with me to create this look." Dreamy layers of white and gold with our favorite statement sugar flower adorned this delicious cake! Beautiful inside and out, like our client herself. To celebrate their union, we freshly baked a personal favorite and a best selling combination: Almond Amaretto with Almond Crunch. Cheers to infinite years of happiness and togetherness for the newly married! #sugarrealm #cincinnatiweddings #cincinnatiweddingcakes  Chocolate truffle cake iced with chocolate ganache, decorated with our own handcrafted sugar flowers🌸 Congrats you Larry and Sis, many you live many more years of happiness and togetherness!!!   Celebrating Kelly and Kyle’s union with the sleekest cake possible... gray mableing, gold bruising and the coolest wafer paper wreath! For them, we freshly baked our personal favorite: Almond sponge paired with Almond Amaretto Mousseline with Almond crunch. As always, iced with our signature rolled chocolate panels🍰💕 Congrats you two!!!   A magnificent cake, created for a magnificent client, celebrating this magnificent city. What an honor to have had a small role in celebrating the revitalization of Cincinnati Music Hall!  Made all out of sugar, this order was not for the faint of heart. Dimensions of the cake were approximately 44" in length, 40" wide and 16" tall. Every detail and sugar piece was custom made out of simple ingredients: egg whites and powdered sugar, for making our own sugar paste and white chocolate with corn syrup, for our own rolled chocolate recipe! Our challenge was to represent the magnificent exterior architecture and sophisticated interior detail of this landmark building We presented our design to the client, were we proposed to create a long tier that would be adorned with replicas of key interior features, and that would receive an upper tier, representing the beautiful architecture. Our client loved it right away, his "this is brilliant!" email of approval sealed the deal. Now we had to figure out... how to make it happen.   You may know by now, that I am an architect by trade, with many years in the practice of architecture. So, this is certainly not my first sugar "model". In my sugar kingdom, we have been blessed with other sugar model challenges; we have made Chinese pagodas, iconic Museum Buildings and even Carrousel cakes! However, given the size and level of detail, this order is for sure, the most ambitious order of all!
