Wedding anniversary cake spanning 50 years

irenes-cake

Irene had kept the floral topper from her original wedding cake. It was carefully packed in a box and had survived unscathed for 50 years. Irene planned a 50th anniversary party but wanted a second cake to share with her friends at church the following day so we settled on this two tier fruit cake. I made sugar flowers which I hope reflect those in the vintage topper and this was the result. Very many congratulations Irene.

 

50th wedding anniversary cake

Irene and John have organised a celebration party with a purple and gold theme. The decorations include yellow flowers and purple and gold bunting so lets hope this iced madeira cake will fit the bill. Congratulations to you both. Have a lovely day.

Golden Wedding party twice over.

Betty had baked her own fruit cake for her wedding anniversary.
She asked me to marzipan and ice it for her. 
She had made bunting and used yellow gerberas to decorate the venue which we echoed in the icing.
She then confessed she was having another 50 guests to a second party!
So I made a second cake and iced them identically. Congratulations Betty.
