Norie’s Kitchen – Post it Wedding Cake

In our society nobody writes as much as before. With the internet, nobody bothers to write (as in using pen and paper) anything to anyone anymore. I think writing is a romantic thing. Writing is very personal you can know a lot in person by the way he writes. It’s the written word that makes a lowly piece of adhesive paper into something you treasure.

That’s why I think this cake is so romantic. They wanted me to make a cake incorporating Post-its. The humble sticky note probably played a pivotal role in their love story for it to be included on their wedding cake.

They wanted me to make a cake with a white base and the green and pink post-it colors. I covered the cake with white fondant. To break the monotony of an all white cake base and to add an air of elegance to it, I added cut-out flower shapes to the sides to make it look like its covered with lace.

I then added rows of green fondant post-its at the bottom of the cakes. I then splashed pink fondant post-its and wrote the words Love, Honor, Cherish, Forever on them. On the center of the pink flowers I added silver dragees to add bling to the cake.

A lot of people are collectors of Hello Kitty accessories and maybe this cake is for one of those Hello Kitty collectors. While most of my cakes just feature Hello Kitty, but for this cake they requested me to add a Hello Kitty watch and bag.

You know you’re doing a good job if you get repeat customers, this is the 3rd cake I made for Annalyn. She got all the cake for her 3 sons from us. This design is similar to a Little Einsteins cake I made before but this time she wanted me to add Elmo. Thanks Annalyn for making Norie’s Kitchen a part of your family’s special occasions. Sorry for the late posting though.
