Ivy and her first wedding cakeIvy and Her First Wedding Cake

This is Ivy and she is only 14 years old. She has a knack for baking and decorating wouldn't you say? Her and her mom were trying to find the perfect almond cake recipe for Ivy's first wedding cake order. They had trouble with the recipes they were using and needed a little help with the construction part too. Thankfully they discovered Wedding Cakes With Lorelie Step-by-Step.

They shared this great shot of Ivy and actually called to let me know how excited they were to have found my e-Book. Congratulations Ivy !!!

Thanks to all of you who have shared your wedding cake photos and stories on the Wedding Cake Contest page. There are no contests at this time.
