A return client of ours from Charlotte, Dinah, asked if we could create giant  cupcakes for her wedding. With one small challenge though. It was an outdoor celebration in the summer and the cupcakes needed to hold up to some of the heat as well as “No paper liners around the outside”. Don’t let the “Cup” term throw you off as it did me. Our bakery created 54 giant cupcakes that were actually 54 “miniature wedding cakes”.   These babies were huge and took a whole lot longer than expected, to create.  The roundness of the tops of these are NOT CAKE but a mound of icing covered in a circle of embossed fondant. The center of the blue flowers are actually peppermints. Once again we would like to thank Dinah for returning to Kenfections bakery for her custom cake creation.  Wouldn’t you know it, it turned out to be exactly 100 degrees!

As one of the few bakeries in Charlotte, NC to handle these requests, this Lego inspired cake is our version of what a wedding reception cake should be, FUN.  This two tier golden vanilla cake features our signature butter cream icing and fondant Lego’s.  The miniature Lego people and “4 Wide Bricks” are made of white chocolate. The larger scale Lego figures as well as the bricks that appear under the fondant “cover” are gum paste. Total of 17 hours went into creating this cake mainly due the Lego pieces and figures.    We are proud to have been selected to build this custom cake for yet another new client of ours, Elizabeth A. in Charlotte NC.
