Top Row: Jeff and Melissa loved the clean lines and floral interpretation of their Kate Spade “Gwinnett Lane” china pattern that. They asked Erica O’Brien to translate the pattern into cake. Erica hand cut fondant pieces colored to match the china and appliqued them to the fondant covering the cake.

Middle Row: Michael surprised Jillian with a trip to Hawaii, where he proposed to her after years of dating. To commemorate their trip and their engagement, they bought matching Hawaiian print shirts. They asked Erica OBrien to create a cake inspired by their shirts.

Bottom Row: Ron and Sarah used elements found in an Indian painting (exoticindiaart.com) to represent Ron’s family’s Hindu heritage
