Red & Blue

This is one of my favorite color combinations. Red is always that accent color I want to add to everything.

It's also a favorite for one of my brides: Anelle from Seven Swans wedding stationary. She had a regular feature on the cap classique blog about the whole planning process of her own wedding. Everything about this wedding just sounded wonderful. I was lucky enough to make some cookies for this very talented lady.

Below are the cookies that made part of Anelle's yummy cookie bar. The amaaaazing duo from welovepictures, were the photographers at their wedding. I'm absolutely dying to see the pics!

Black & White

Black and white is still one of the favorite color schemes for weddings. It's elegant, sophisticated and simple. It's also a very striking color combination for cakes.

Here's a few black and white cake designs.

Color of the year

I'm happy to share with you that Turquoise is Pantone's color of the year.

Not only is Turquoise one of my favourite colors, but its also the color of Nelle cakes. 

As Pantone explains: Turquoise is a universally flattering color that appeals to both men and women. It's inspired by sky & water. It reminds people of a tropical paradise and represents a comforting escape .With both warm and cool undertones, it pairs well with any other color.

Turquoise adds a splash of excitement to neutrals and browns, complements reds and pinks, creates a classic maritime look with deep blues, livens up all other greens, and is especially trend-setting with yellow-greens.

Here are some sweet things with different Turquoise undertones and color combinations. (I think it's quite obvious that I looove Turquoise)



Change is good

I have a few examples of cakes that have been changed in different ways. From the ribbon colour, to a the shape and color of the cake.

The cakes you see on my website are just a few examples of what I can do in terms of technique. I want to encourage everyone to think outside of the box. I can turn pretty much anything into a cake. From something as small as your favourite brooch (see kamersvol blog) or the pattern on your wedding invitation, I can make it happen!

Kamersvol

I've been to the kamersvol geskenke  recently and felt so inspired by all the creative people out there.

It's very difficult NOT to buy everything you see when visiting this market. Here's just some of the lovely little things I bought that inspired me to play around with some cake designs.
