A spring wedding cake created for my brother-in-law & his new wife. He hunted down the wood to make this one-of-a-kind cake stand.

Fall Wedding Cake

A fall wedding calls for a fall wedding cake.
This three tiered wedding cake is wrapped in dark chocolate fondant (if you've never tasted this -- you're missing out!) & decorated with hand cut fondant leaves and sugared berries in an array of autumn colors. It was fun, delicious break from the classic white cake, & it was a perfect finishing touch to a very elegant fall wedding.

Echo Lake Cake

A bride asked us to surprise her husband-to-be with a groom's cake that looked like Echo Lake. This is where he popped the big question.

Update (finally!)

Have you noticed that things have slowed down around here? I guess that is to be expected as one of us has moved out of state, others have lots of little ones & another is working full-time while attending school. I thought I’d do a quick update to let everyone know that we are still around & we’ve still managed to squeeze in a few cake orders. If you’re interested, drop us a line at thecakestand@live.com, & if we can find the time, we’ll gladly bake a sweet treat for you. If we can't get it done this time around, I do hope you'll still consider us in the future. I am hoping to get some real posts up over the next couple of days, so stay tuned!

Swimming Pool Cake

This cake was made for an 11 year old boy's swim party. We hope his birthday cake made a "splash" at his party!
