The great thing about the hand-painted cake is that it can be over-the-top or understated and sweet. Michelle Sisam of Sweet Deer Hand-Painted Cakes is known for just that! Her paintings are so beautiful, you might not want to eat them!
To incorporate this simple hand-painted style into your event, get inspired! Look for vintage floral posters, old wedding invitations or illustrated patterns that you love and hire an artist that just happens to be a cake decorator to paint them onto your wedding cake.
Michelle creates her beautiful works of art by layering up washes of food coloring and then painting in the final details with a fine-tipped paint brush.
About This Cake:
"Hand-painted cakes I feel will always be an on-trend option for weddings, there being so many subjects, colors, textures and techniques to paint it really is endless. I chose to paint a vibrant fresh rose leaving the background a crisp white to let the brushstrokes of the painting stand out by itself. Flowers bring so much beauty to weddings and a classic rose or florals in general are a very popular choice at the moment."
