The design of this birthday cake was based on the invitations, capturing everything from the color scheme to the font. The yellow stripes lend this cake a happy and fun air while the edible flower graphic banner adds festive note. Because the flowers are 2D rather than 3D, this also gives a more modern feel.

The flower banner itself was custom-designed and hand-cut. The design was also versatile enough to use for an adult’s event, such as a birthday or bridal. The flower banner motif could even be used on a wedding cake. We love designing and creating cakes based on invitations as lovely as the one for Ava. Fonts as well as graphics can be replicated to fit your needs.

We wanted to post this cake up because it has a modern twist on buttercream cakes. A smoothed surface allowed us to place layers of translucent paper-thin “petals” (edible) to resemble the bride and grooms invitations. The goal was to make them look almost as if they had been painted on; a modern monogram was used as a focal point for the cake. This buttercream is completely devoid of any homestyle texturing but also lacks the traditional bakery piping, or any 3-dimensional flower whether buttercream or gumpaste. The cake is very simple and yet also proves to be very beautiful and stands out a truly unique wedding cake.

Another buttercream that might interest you is our Blue Flower Cake. Our Winter Birds wedding cake is another very modern wedding cake that could work well with buttercream.

Using the combination of clean unadorned fondant, some ribbon and beautiful gumpaste flowers, you can create virtually countless looks and design. It really all depends on the arrangement.  The pictured wedding cake takes on a more classic arrangement, but you add more flowers or use less. Other popular arrangements are cascading flowers or having one large bouquet on top. A more modern striking approach would be to include the stems of the calla lilies, and bind the flowers together in a ribbon as in a bridal bouquet and either lay it right on top  or have it leaning diagonally across the front of the wedding cake.
