 WEDDING SEASON IS HERE
And Tammy Kasarda of Cakes by Kasarda helps solve a few common dilemmas, just in time for high-season. With the economy affecting the betrothed, weddings have been getting smaller and cup cakes have become a popular alternative. Cup cakes make any special event easier to serve and easier on the clean up! Another upside is mixing and matching several different flavors. You can always order a cake top for the anniversary!
In Charleston, the hot and humid weather is always a challenge for any pastry chef designing a wedding cake. Most icings are difficult to work with for outdoor events, so what is the best solution for a hot summer day? Kasarda prefers fondant for summertime frosting. Since most people aren’t crazy for the taste, Tammy’s secret weapon is an under layer of sweet tasting buttercream to keep her cakes delicious. With whatever icing chosen, be sure to coordinate cake delivery with the pastry chef to help keep outdoor time to a minimum. And try to keep indoor cakes in the coolest spot in the room. To all of Charleston"s brides and grooms, Congratulations and Best Wishes from Cakes by Kasarda!
