Wedding Cupcakes with Sugar Blossoms


These cupcakes were perfect for the intimate wedding last Saturday!


I first met the bride, Megan, a couple of months ago at her cake consultation. With her mom and two bridesmaids, we discussed her color theme, style and flavors. She also gave me a copy of her invitation to show her color palette of brown, orange, and green.


After a few ideas, we came up with this cute design. The top cake is made of Carrot Pineapple Spice Cake, Cream Cheese Filling, and Italian Meringue Buttercream Icing. Delicate sugar blossoms adorned the cake as well as the Carrot Pineapple Spice Cupcakes. The rest of the cupcakes were made of Chocolate Chip Cake, Chocolate Buttercream, and sprinkled with sugar pearls.


The wedding was held at Pheasant Run Farm, a beautifully converted Bed and Breakfast in Lancaster, PA. The reception room had exposed stone walls and opened to a brick terrace that overlooked a rose garden and a meadow beyond. It was romantic and simply gorgeous!



After putting the finishing touches on the cupcakes, Megan and her bridesmaids entered the room on their way to the garden for their photos to be taken. It was so nice to see her again and dressed in her bridal gown looking so lovely and happy. She saw the cupcakes and stopped to say that they looked great! What a treat! Seeing a happy client is truly the best part of my job!!
