This being my first post to my new blog, I wanted to highlight one of my favorite cakes. I love wine. Now I am not just talking about liking it...I LOVE it! I am by no means a frequent consumer but wine holds a special place in my heart. This love of wine is most likely based on a deep rooted connection to my Italian heritage. I am also fortunate to have friends that enjoy this wonderful nectar as much as I do. It was because of this I made a wine crate cake for my friend for her most recent celebration of her 25th birthday.
The cake was made from a recipe that I also hold dear to my heart. It was the exact cake that my husband and I had at our wedding....champagne!! The butter cream was also champagne. The decorations included brown marbled fondant, white chocolate shavings and silk grape leaves. I topped this of with one of the most appropriate bottles of wine I could find....CUPCAKE! There is no fake wine bottles here....that would just create a sad birthday girl.
