Cake Trend: Mid-Century Modern Boho Chic
The 50's are everywhere! From interior design, fashion and of course, wedding cakes. Clean and modern cakes with geometric and architectural elements, wood grains, greenery and lots of gold.
Susan Trianos of Learn to Cake created this stunning architectural beauty featuring not one but TWO cakes plus candle stand. The wooden accents are actually edible and the cakes have removable floral crowns! How cool is that!
Susan is a multi-award winning cake decorator and instructor who specializes in flawless, beautiful wedding cakes. Her sugar flowers are even so realistic, it's hard to believe they are really edible!
About this cake:
"This inspiration spoke to me, as these are the elements I’ve been using to redesign my home kitchen. Its natural organic elements of marble, wood, gold, and greenery give a beautifully clean and crisp look. I love a cake with architectural details, and tend to incorporate them whenever I can (when I have complete control over the design).
I created wood effect boxes out of pastillage that were filled with gum paste greenery to create wreaths. The boxed wreaths are supported by the thin wood effect strips that are attached to the side of the cake, making the boxed wreaths completely removable and can be enjoyed as great centerpieces following the event."
Susan has been in the baking industry her entire professional career, which spans just over 30 years. She has owned a renowned custom cake shop in Toronto, Canada, has worked for Wilton Industries, General Mills/Pillsbury, and taught at a confectionary arts college. Susan’s work has been featured in movies, magazines, billboards and ads and she now focuses her efforts on her on line school Learn to Cake.
