I Made My Own Wedding Cake! Sugar Flowers and all
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 жов 2024
- I made my wedding cake from scratch! It was a roller coaster from start to finish and nearly ended in disaster! In the final days leading up to one of the most stressful times in my life, I made my cake. Well, this one was the trial cake, but you will just have to stay tuned to see how the final one turns out. I taught myself how to make sugar flowers out of gum paste and cover a cake in fondant. The whole project took me over 30 hours of continuous work to complete! On my cake I placed cherry blossoms, peonies, cosmos, dahlias, blackberries, roses, berries and leaves.

Everything I use to film:
While I am on the go, I film with my iPhone 11 Pro Max on the Dji Mobile Osmo 3. This allows me to get super smooth shots. I combine that with the either the Saramonic lavalier mic or Rhode mic and use a mount to attach it to the gimbal.

Rhode Compact Mic:

When I film at my apartment, I use my iPhone Pro Max as the main camera and my Canon 6D with the 24-105 f/4 lens for B-roll and photos. For the overhead shots, I use an overhead camera rig to mount my Canon 6D and connect a camera monitor so I can view the shot. And when my camera is set up on the ground, I use a quick release tripod. For lighting, I use the Neewer ring light and for audio, the Saramonic lavalier mic or Rhode mic (Linked Above).

I've been doing cakes for over thirty years now and its lovely to see newbies tackle such tricky sugar flowers. Yes this hobby is expensive, but if you are serious about doing this craft they will last you a life time some of my cutters and veiners are so old now I can't even remember when I bought them. I love creating flowers and displaying them on cakes. I like to be authentic and natural, well done!
So so so beautiful……….❤ congratulations ❤………your videos always makes me happy…….
Thank you 💕
Absolutely gorgeous! The flowers are amazing 👏
Thank you! 🥰
OMG too much work. Sending lots of love and admiration! 🥰
It really was haha 😅
You have amazing artistry.
Thanks! 😊
The sugar flowers are beautiful. And oh congratulations on your upcoming marriage, from someone who have watched your first videos in Paris.
i know there's room for improvement, but WOW, this cake already looked stunning, Emily 😍 can't wait to see the final result
Beautiful
You are one incredible girl to make your own wedding cake. Congratulations!
Thanks!
You are so creative and talented Emily!!! So beautiful!! Abs the proposal story was so cute!!! 🍰❤
I watched your gingerbread house video after seeing it on Pinterest a few months back…. It was a very expensive watch 😅 I have since bought a KitchenAid Mixer, all the ingredients under the sun for gingerbread and of course, like you, began collecting cake decorating supplies! Now this isn’t exactly new to me though. I grew up watching my mum decorate cakes back in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s. She was self taught, like in everything else she does. I naturally enjoyed decorating cakes by borrowing her supplies. Back in the 90’s I made a high school teacher her Christmas cake with sugar flowers and piping all over it and even made my mother her 50th cake (20 years ago) with Icing and Lily’s with gold lustre in the centres. It turned out beautiful. I have absolutely no idea why I stopped… well arthritis played a role. But thanks to your video, I’m so bloody inspired to get going again! It’s only a hobby but I live for creativity. Nice work on those flowers especially seeing the beginning fails to the end. Success!
Glad I could inspire you to start up again! 🥰
Somehow your video came up in my recommended videos. I don’t dance ballet (or dance at all, I am a veterinarian), and I love cake decorating but I suck at it. But I have to say I love your energy. You are beautiful and you and your fiancé make a sweet couple (in a good way, not a cheesy way). Thank you for making a video that made me smile and was a bright light in a difficult day. It is always a great thing to see someone put time and energy into something that is important to them, and then see a beautiful thing come from it. Cheers!
Thank you! 🥰
what an inspiration! You are so good at making flowers! Keep it up!! People pay big bucks for flowers.
Thank you!
It looks beautiful!
This will definitely be me when I get married 🎂🪻🌼
My jaw dropped!!! The flowers… “oh fudge nuggets” 😂😂😂

Congratulations Mily inspiring as always
Those sugar florals look so professional ❤
Thanks!
Gorgeous!!!!
Great video! You are so talented!
I feel like I was Rick-Rolled by a secret pro pretending to be a beginner 😮 I don’t have the patience, vision, nor the skill to do this! I can’t even get a cake pop to not fall off the stick lol
Cake pops are hard! I tried to make them once… never again!! Haha 😅
girl I'm telling you! Everyone else makes them look so easy lol
The cake is so gorgeous that I hate you! #morelikejealous
I have always highly respected people who goes all the way when making a cake. And that means making their own toppers, figurines and flowers instead of using toys/printouts/fresh flowers etc. That is a true mark of a real and skilled artisan, Mad props to you!!!
But you are paying WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much for the sugar flower supplies. 😂😂😂
Sugar flowers are one of my main decorations in most of my cake, I think overall I've just spent less than $300 for all of my sugar flower equipment
I bought most of my supplies from a bake shop in NYC which is probably why I spent so much 😅 I sure helped pay their rent for the month haha
Your sugar flowers are beautiful. Practice covering the cakes. Not bad at all.
Thanks! Yes my cake covering could definitely use some practice haha
👍👍❤
How many hours did it take you ?
Too many! 😅
So beautiful vedio share thanks 16:59
Thanks!

I don’t get the purpose of the styrofoam.
There are many reasons for this: Most important for me was to be able to have most of my cake made weeks in advance since it was for my own wedding.
The second reason is because you can keep the cake on display for most of the night without having to take it away to be cut
Third: it’s cheaper to have undecorated sheet cakes in the back. Also that way once the bride and groom cut the cake the sheet cake can be immediately served so there is no waiting period for the guests 😊
