Orange Daisy Vols Wedding Cake

Sometimes a couple are such big sports fans that they want to incorporate that into their wedding cake.  This is one of the best ways to do it right; by bringing in the colors of the couple's team.

This wedding cake accompanied the Smokey the Dog cake from Tuesday.  I started by making gerber daises in orange and white out of gumpaste.  They were fairly easy to make, but they were SO fragile.  I lost a lot of these to the cake gods.

I piped orange paisleys on alternating tiers and highlighted them with some small white dots.  Each tier got an orange ribbon border.  And an orange monogram on a fondant plaque finished it all up.

This cake went to The Car Barn in Chattanooga.  It was out first time there, and the venue was really great!  It was spacious and decorated very sharply.

Y'all have a great weekend, OK?
