Wedding Cakes That Won't Make You Gain Weight

                 

Anybody that knows me knows that I love wedding cake.  The more frosting the better.  If you are planning a wedding and really would like to have something different for table centerpieces you may like the idea of making a glass cake.  They are very easy to make and you can buy most of the supplies at Michael's Arts and Crafts.  In this post I have created several different versions of the cake.  Some with orchids, some with roses.  Combining the concept of an ice sculpture and a wedding cake was the inspiration to this design.   

 

Turn the vases upside down first,  For this black and white cake you will need 2 different kinds of ribbon, brand name (Celebrate It) from Michael's Arts and Crafts., 3 glass square vases (sizes 7", for bottom layer), (4", for middle layer), (3" for top),  1-Classic Traditions white garland.  I removed some of the leaves from the garland to put around the cake and some of the roses for the top and corners.  I also added some cream  roses to give a more realistic look.  The diamond like stones were then hot glued onto the white leaves.  They can be purchased at Michael's in with the stickers.  The product name was Crystal Stickers.  If you register with Michael's they will send you coupons.     

Above is shown another version of the cake arrangement using orchids cut into sections, adding a flower to each corner and a spray at the top with white satin ribbon added around the base of each layer.  Shown below are the vases separated and used as vases for small table top arrangements.

You can also fill the vases with flowers, trimming the top of each layer with white satin ribbon making it look like frosting.  Remember that the vases are turned upside down.  I used a piece of white cardboard to put under the bottom vase to hold the flowers.  Pearls were hot glued onto the sides.  This is really a fun craft to do, and if anybody would like to try this idea I would really appreciate it if you would send me a picture of your glass cake,  and I will post it on this page.  If you need more information on how to make this cake or product information I will be glad to help you, just e-mail me at r.fishermusicflor@yahoo.com
