A big highlight in the Wedding World recently has been the marriage of Hilary Duff and Mike Comrie. With a stunning Vera Wang gown, plenty of roses, and a “warm and cozy” atmosphere, it really was a gem. My favorite part by far however, (her dress a close second) was the cake. A simple, “vintage home made”, elegant tiered cake… minus the frosting. Amidst an abundance of cookie-cutter weddings, this cake really stands out. A cake without frosting was a really nice touch and very unique, and perfectly matched the overall feel of the wedding. With the contrast of the soft pink roses, cream frosting and golden brown cake layers, I’m really in love.

I saw this cake in either OK mag or US Weekly and I fell in LOVE. I have never been a fan of sugary frosting, royal icing, or bland fondant. I will definitely have my caterer recreate this cake for my wedding!!
Seem to be seeing more and more of these ’shaved side’ cakes without frosting – very unique look indeed!
Thanks for featuring this cake…. It was so much fun to design and one of my fav’s from 2010
her cake looks so yummy! that’s our kind of cake – getting straight to the cake and bypassing all the frosting!
