Almond Wedding Cake With Sugar Flowers
"One of my favorite things was our cake, which was from Erica O'Brien Cake Design in Hamden, Connecticut," Karen says. "They took my ideas and turned them into a stunning and delicious cake! The bottom tier was a soft gold, while the top two tiers were off-white with a band of gold around the base. Between the bottom and middle tier was an arrangement of sugar flowers in magenta and white -- very natural and realistic. There was also of other desserts: a flourless chocolate torte, almond bars and a lemon tart, served with coffee and a selection of Harney & Sons tea."
