I recently saw a colorful pink felt wreath and thought it would translate very well into a buttercream cake design. So I grabbed my pink food coloring and went to work! I think the leaves look especially felt like. I love how simple and crafty this cake turned out to be.
Purple Buttercream Tulip Cake
Today's cake is a buttercream bouquet made of tulips, peonies and hydrangeas. I love how purple can be shaded towards red or blue, so I utilized both extremes of purple in this cake.

A sampling of the different buttercream flower cake designs that we've produced. Flowers are individually piped and then arranged in wreath, full bouquet or crescent styles. I love how simple yet beautiful buttercream can be!
Buttercream Monogram Wreath Cake

Caking: my favorite thing to do.
Fall Buttercream Chrysanthemums
The flavors and colors of autumn really have the power to bring warmth to one's heart. With that in mind, I piped these buttercream chrysanthmums in shades of yellow, orange and red to celebrate the season.

I'm celebrating all the things I love about fall with this Starbucks cup inspired cake!
Pink and White Ranunculus Cake
This weekend we had a cake headed up to a rustic barn nestled in the quaint Hudson Valley town of Rhinebeck. The sugar flowers arranged on the cake matched the centerpieces and it was topped off with two very cute hand painted wooden toppers by lil' cake toppers to resemble the bride and groom.
Gumpaste Ranunculus
Spending the day making gumpaste ranunculus while listening to some good music.
Gold Button Centered Flowers
Our cake is featured on Cake Geek today in an article that highlights cakes that have flowers with gold centers. I made these flowers for a wedding cake a few years back in which I took real buttons to make custom molds and then used those molds to make gumpaste versions. Then I painted it with gold highlighter dust. The process was quite simple and the outcome gives the flowers a stunning effect.
