If you missed out on attending the “Let Them Eat Cake” event this past weekend, it was an afternoon full of sweets, eye candy and a cake competition like no other!  Put on by V.I.B. Productions {Very Important Bride}, the idea was to showcase Sacramento’s premier cake designers in a Marie Antoinette themed competition.  Brides in attendance judged the cakes on appearance as well as taste!

Congratulations to all who participated, your hard work, dedication and talent was quite, quite impressive!

Check out some of the awesome work featured:

The event was held at Antiqute Maison Privee, a new venue located in midtown Sacramento.

Best overall table display went to…. Sweet Cakes by Rebecca!  Rebecca’s table was so cute!  From cake bits to white chocolate dipped apples and apothecary jars filled with candies, it was a feast of eye candy.  Signage created by the awesomely talented Stephanie J. Designs!

Best cake judged on taste went to…..Pastry Heaven! Congratulations!

Other cake designers who participated:

The Sweetest Things:  Lisa Marie’s cake was a tower of fondant which resembled a gown Marie Antoinette would wear!  Finished off with jeweled brooches, it was stunning!

Shelton’s Wedding Cakes:  This cake had intricate molding around the edges, and the shimmer finish was lovely!

Village Cake Shoppe:  This cake had an out-of-the-box interpretation.  Cupcakes were wired around the cake like a full skirt a lady from Marie Antoinette’s era would wear!

Babycakes Bakery:  This towering powder blue cake was also very intricate with detail and fondant draping!

Sugar and Spice: Carissa’s cake was covered in sugar flowers!  Much hard work and dedication!  Her table was covered in hand-made edible treats from macaroons to mini cupcakes with lemon topping!  Yum, Yum!

Music helped keep the fun vibe going, thanks to Sound Image Entertainment.
