I made over 300 cupcakes and 180 gum paste plumeria flowers for a Hawaiian themed wedding reception. The cupcakes were made in three different flavors. Red Velvet with Cream Cheese frosting, Vanilla with Marshmallow Butter cream and Chocolate with Chocolate Fudge frosting.
The plumeria flowers and leaves were all hand made and took many hours to make. This was my first wedding so I was very nervous. The bride and groom loved everything and said that it was "just as they had pictured" it. It made me feel so good to hear those words.
A friend made the big cupcake on top for the bride and groom. I made extra gum paste flowers to place on this cake as well.
Here's a closer look.
