Martha Stewart Weddings, Winter 2005
A two-dimensional calico print comes to life on a cake with diminutive hand-sculpted flowers, leaves, and fruits; the soft colors are reminiscent of the faded look of a vintage apron. Real rickrack trim, bordering clusters of fruit on the middle tier, imparts a cheery, homespun feel. Set against ivory fondant, strawberries and cherries grow from stems of piped royal icing, tinted brown. The fruits are shaped from sugar paste painted in delicate shadings and hues. Rickrack trim is secured with royal icing.

I am actually having this cake for my september wedding. It is absolutely amazing.
I really wish that the bakery who designed this cake was named. Like one of the other posters, I too am basing my color palette on this beautiful cake.
I was married on August 9th and my Aunt made me this cake. It was beautiful and tasted great. I believe it took 2 days to make.
has anyone actually had this cake made? I'm having a hard time finding a baker hat will attempt it...
My wedding color theme is based on this beautiful cake. I so wish I could try just one little bite.
This cake is a work of art. Wonder how many hours are in the flowers alone!?!
This cake is just beautiful! Love the colors and the nice work. Very Nice!!
The colours used on this cake are simply beautiful. Love it!
