Marine Wedding Themed Cakes

Well this is what 100 cake pops looks like! So happy to make these for a friend's brother who is getting married this weekend! I love the glitzy gold colors mixed with the deep blues.  I decided to make the wedding dresses look all different, just to add some variety and give more personality to them.  These were the classic flavors of chocolate, vanilla, red velvet and strawberry! 

The little XO's are my favorite! 

I hope everyone loves them! I am super excited to focus on some Halloween treats now! And some postseason baseball treats!! All coming within the next two weeks! It is going to be a busy remainder of the month but I am up for the challenge! Hope your week is going well :)

A Cake in Uniform

A friend from culinary school approached me and asked if I would make a sampler for her brother and his fiancé.  They are having a military wedding and she thought it would be fun if she brought them cake pops styled for the Marines. It hit close to home, since my boyfriend is a former Marine and Veteran. I wanted to make them extra special.

So with the proud colors of the USA, I created these!

But I really wanted to make these special, I wanted them to symbolize the couple and the strength it takes to endure a military relationship. So I created what I envisioned would be their wedding day! 

The good buttons and red stripe of the Marine uniform and the glitzy pearls of a wedding dress, all edible and ready for admiration! 

Pretty good right? Louis and I won't have a military wedding someday, but we did get to dress snazzy for the marine ball a couple years ago! Gotta love a guy in uniform!

Anyways, the happy couple loved the treats and I will be making more for them soon!

Happy Monday! Take the week one sweet bite at a time!
