This four-tier wedding cake by Caryn Nash of Cake Design by Caryn Nash, 404-788-7637, carynscakes.com, was designed for Allison Creamer and Chris Miller’s wedding. “Because Allison and Chris were both raised in the South, they wanted to incorporate elements reminiscent of Southern living,” says Nash. “Their wedding theme was ’simple Southern elegance,’ so the cake naturally followed suit—no frills, bells or whistles.” Sugarpaste cherry blossoms looked stunning against the cake’s clean lines. (Real cherry blossoms bloom in Atlanta in late March.) A vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream covered the cake. Inside were white, chocolate and applesauce cake layers with cream cheese and caramel filling. The bride wanted to incorporate a single color—navy—to match the bridesmaid dresses. Nash used it sparingly, with navy icing at the base of each layer. The grass surrounding the bottom tier gave the cake a summery feel. Have your florist prepare a platform edged in wheatgrass for the same effect. Photo: Caryn Nash
