Green Wedding Cake

No its not a "green" cake but it was for the Green's (a family in our ward) whose daughter was marrying a guy who served his mission in this area and whom Kevin got to know quite well in his ward missionary efforts. As for the cake, she said she wanted 3 round tiers and she gave me the ribbon but left any other design up to me. I was watching the Ultimate Cake Off on TLC early this week and wanted to try stenciling after watching them do it on tv. I think it worked well and was a pretty easy technique. The only critique of this cake is that the flowers at the reception that were put together specifically for the cake and couldn't be adjusted, were just too big for the cake- it made it a bit out of proportion- but Kevin said it looked good that way... so even though I knew better I was somewhat consoled. I stayed for the reception and cut and served the cake. It was a fun night. As always, Kevin was a great help and made the whole experience much more fun!

At home in its simplistic state.
