My friend Lynn asked me to do the dessert for her daughter Lacee's bridal shower - what an honor! Lacee is marrying an Indian fellow named Tejas and they are planning two separate ceremonies - an American wedding and an Indian wedding - so I thought I'd incorporate her wedding Mehndi with her Tiffany themed shower. I saw a cake on-line that was perfect for what we were thinking. All I did was change the design around the monogram!
I used the mocha chocolate cupcake/cake recipe with buttercream frosting.
The cake was layered with dark chocolate ganache and buttercream...YUM. I decided against using fondant for the cake because I wanted a really clean square. The Mehndi and the monogram was done in royal icing and for the frosting I tinted using Wilton Teal Gel coloring.
The Tiffany bows were made from marshmallow fondant.
Early this morning I delivered the cake and 48 cupcakes to a very excited and very nervous mother! :) Best wishes Lacee and Tejas!
