Nada & Nadir's Engagement

This order was special, different then my other ones due to a few spectacular reasons. First, it was for an engagement, so this is my first ever formal event order! Second, I got to do my first cake! Third, this order was to another town, around 5 hours away, which made me feel quite proud. (-:

The majority of the decor at the engagement was ivory and gold so the bride asked for those two colors. Unfortunately, due to short notice I couldn't supply her with them therefore we had to choose something different yet similar. She decided on aubergine and ivory with a hint of gold after seeing the Aubergine & Ivory Cupcakes I did last March. 

She wanted a 5 inch cake for the top of the tower, which I was a little nervous about. I have never decorated a cake before, ever. I decided to give a try. I have to admit, knowing that it's going to be at a formal event did add a little more pressure but hey, there's a first time for everything right? It was a little tough, but I was quite impressed with what I pulled together. The top flower was fondant it was also my first ever. I'm going to go ahead and say it, I am very proud of myself at the moment. :-D

Congratulations Nada & Nadir on your engagement. I hope you have a life full of happiness and joy together!
