We at Jacy Cakes are avid supporters of equal rights, and we were thrilled to have the opportunity to provide a fantasy wedding cake to be on display at a recent NGLCC NY Shining Stars event for Marriage Equality that took place at Slate in NYC.
We were asked to create an all white traditional wedding cake with a modern twist, along with a double sided topper that had two brides on one side and two grooms on the other.
This topsy turvy cake had piping of the marriage equality logo, highlighted in silver, with swirls & tiny dots on either side of it on alternating tiers. The other tiers were covered in very thin fondant strings. In between the main tiers were separators covered in different sized white roses and rose buds.
The topper featured two beautiful brides, whose dresses were loosely based on what the fabulous Ellen & Portia wore on their wedding day. On the other side of the topper were two grooms wearing tuxedos, one with tails and one without. Between the grooms and brides was a fondant swirl wall which mimicked the swirls on the cake. The fun factor to this cake came into play when we turned on the spinning top tier, giving both couples a chance to be showcased with the front of the cake.
To accompany this cake, we provided 300 vanilla, chocolate and red velvet cupcakes with assorted flavored buttercreams of raspberry, cream cheese, chocolate and peanut butter. These were in the theme of the "Shining Stars" aspect of the event, so they were topped with fondant decorations of champagne bottles, stars, sunglasses, bow ties, pearl necklaces & Wisp Toothbrushes, which were provided in everyones swag bags by Colgate, an event sponsor.
