Celebrating their 60th Anniversary, our Deacon and his wife allowed us the opportunity to help in the celebration. To that end we made these cakes.
A triad of cakes. To include a family cake to take home. All cakes have over 4 dozen hand-made fondant red roses.
This rectangle cake is done as a white cake with a lemon curd filling.
The family cake is a totally symbolic piece. It is done as a marble cake (to represent the blending of different flavors) with 5 roses on top. One for each parent and one for each of their three children. The decorating design is taken from the topper on the original wedding cake 60 years ago.
The source of inspiration for this cake came from the following verse:
A Baker’s Verse of
Love and Family
Two
different flavors,
Sweet
and light, dark and stout,
Baked
in the oven of time,
Blended
flavors grew throughout.
No
longer a single taste,
But
something rich and new,
A
perfect, slow-cooked harmony,
A
life forever with you.
Family
is a recipe made with faith and love,
Different
hearts and blending flavors come to prove,
The
sweetest batches come from varied flavors,
Baked
slowly together by the warmth of God’s favors.
