Black & Gold Wedding Cupcake Tower

This beautiful wedding held at the Windmill Hotel, Mackay had a chic black & gold theme (so popular at the moment) & the couple decided to go for a cupcake tower & cutting cake for their cake.


There were 100 cupcakes in a mixture of 'Midnight Delight' (dark chocolate mud) & 'Snow White' (white chocolate mud cake).  All were then covered with either dark chocolate or white chocolate ganache before being covered with marshmallow fondant.   


The bride already had a design in mind that she had seen elsewhere which she wanted me to replicate for her.

It featured a white royal icing scroll with gold cashous (sugar pearls) inlaid, a black sugarpaste heart & a tiny gold fabric bow, although the original design had silver cupcake cases, cashous & bows.


The cutting cake was a 6" round cake, it was 3 layers of 'Midnight Delight' (dark chocolate mud) cake filled & coated with a dark chocolate ganache & covered with my yummy marshmallow fondant.


They chose a simple but elegant design for the cutting cake of a coordinating gold ribbon border & some fresh lilies (to match the brides bouquet)  for a topper.


Congratulations to you both guys!
