Metallic Party Girl - Are you in Tune with this Season's Birthday Colors? - Montreal Custom Made Cakes

In tune with the metallics rampant on the runways, the periwinkle blue is in point with Fall's color palette. The silver beaded detailing and oversize flowers are uber-glam! We are gushing a bit too much over this cake but it was a delight to make for the birthday girl! Happy Birthday to all the glamourous girls out there! xo

Are you at a HIPSTER Wedding? Taking the NON-Traditional route to Weddings - Montreal Weddings

Not everyone is traditional when it comes to wedding and deep down we love doing weddings that are off the beaten path, too!

That's the goal, right ladies??? Have fun!!

Something Blue Wedding Cake - Montreal Weddings

A little tradition in weddings is always nice, don't you agree? This bride chose for her something blue to be on the cake itself and we loved it! One ruffle layer, one floral appliqué layer topped with blue roses is sheer perfection! It would be great if more brides dared to wear more outrageous by wearing more color in their gowns - but, at the end of the day, it's their special day not ours!! ;)

Romance is in the air - Custom Made wedding cakes - Montreal

Romance is in the air again for weddings. Brides are opting for more traditional gowns with pleating, ruffles and lace. Who says it can't be done with uber-class! Ruffles is a big trend for brides.

Who doesn't want to live under the sea, free as can be with a best friend who is a lobster?!
