Burlap-Adorned Three-Tier Cake

The shabby chic three-tier wedding cake was made by Three Tomatoes. It was a vanilla bean cake layered with raspberry creme and lime creme filling with vanilla buttercream frosting. “We were excited to learn that our cake, which was so simple -- decorated only with three strips of burlap and three strips of lace, plus a small wooden heart cake-topper -- won Crooked Willow's own Best Cake of 2014 award (the venue does its own best-of awards every year). It was so cool to win because our focus was more on having a dessert that guests would enjoy, and we beat out some very expensive and elaborate cakes.”
