My wedding cake

I am so proud to show you my wedding cake, made by the amazing Kirsten Howat of Auckland, New Zealand. She did such an amazing job. it was just what I wanted! I have always loved the Mushroom Cake made by the amazing Erica oBrien and Its highly possible the theme of the wedding stemmed slightly from this cake! It is just so beautiful. Kirsten did a beautiful job, taking some of the ideas from Ericas cake and changing it slightly to become her own, and to suit our Toadstool theme. Its is so delicate! She is one to be watching... Auckland look out! Kirsten is currently working at Sweetbite cakes in Auckland while setting up her own business.

Absolutely stunning!

Toadstool Biscuit cutters

I really love You tube tutorials. I use them for everything. Doing my hair, doing my make up, and even make cookie cutters! Genius! I had been on the look out for a Toadstool cutter as I wanted to make Toadstool cookies for the wedding day dessert table... ( you will see as the photos keep coming... there was quite a toadstool theme happening!) And I couldn't find a Toadstool cutter anywhere!!! So DIY it is!





Now I cannot take any credit for this as...My sister made the cutter! At the time of "cookie cutter creating" I was elbow deep in cake mix, cake pops and kilos of buttercream. So Super Sarah made me the cutest little cutter, to the shape of my very terrible scribble of a shape, and this is what she came up with....

Cuteness!

Delicious!

They turned out just as planned! And you've got to love the team effort! The mix made plenty of cookies, so we pretty much ate them all day long... Even during getting our nails done at the Salon! And crafters.... the possibilities are endless with the DIY cookie cutter!
