How to Make Cake Bunting
As you may remember, my hunka hunka burning love and I celebrated our one year wedding anniversar
last Monday. Brad was pretty serious when it came to the keep-your-wedding-cake-topper-in-the-freez
for-a-year-and-then-eat-it tradition. I had a feeling the cake would taste like it had been in a freezer f
a year so I ordered a fresh, 8! cake from a local bakery. You know, just in case. When we got the origin
topper out of the freezer it looked like a younger version of Miss Havisham’s wedding cake. Fresh cak
topper it was. I thought I should jazz it up a bit with some bunting since it was our one year anniversa
after all.
The bunting was crazy easy to make. I grabbed some fabric (from JoAnn Fabric), two dowel rods (JoAn

and bakers twine (eBay). If you don’t have bakers twine on hand, you can substitute with embroidery
thread or yarn.
To make sure all of my triangles were the same size, I used a template. I cut out one template piece a
traced half of it onto the fabric and cut it out. My cake was an 8! round, so I went with seven triangle
Then I grabbed out my bakers twine and hot glue gun. I turned the triangles over and glued them ont
the twine. Don’t over do it on the glue.
After all seven triangles were glued onto the twine, I put a dot of glue about one inch from the top of o
dowel rod. I wrapped the twine around a couple times, trimmed it with scissors, added another tiny d
of glue, and secured the end of the twine to the dowel. I repeated this step with the other dowel.

I’m a big symmetry-liking nerd, so I measured in 2 inches on each side of the cake and placed the dowe
accordingly.
When I presented the cake to Brad with a vigorous “dut dah-dah dah” he chuckled a little, called me a
dork, and gave me a peck. Translation: ”Aw honey, how thoughtful. It looks great!”

Real quick before you go– walk down memory lane and gaze longingly at our original wedding cake wit
me. Man, I loved that cake.
Did you partake in the keep-your-wedding-cake-topper-in-the-freezer-for-a-year-and-then-eat-it
tradition? If so, how did it taste?
Or did you buy a new cake topper?
If you didn’t do any of this because you hate cake, then I think you and I need to reassess our friendshi

Looks great! We ate our cake topper the day after our wedding! Ha! But to be fair, we
didn’t get any cake on our wedding day (other than the piece we fed each other for photos)

That’s totally cute. I love that you picked such a fun pattern, too!
We’re hoping to freeze and eat our top layer – but we’ll see. In all honesty, we’ll probably forge
about it and remember a week after our anniversary. haha.

Love the cake bunting – super cute. And your wedding cake topper is great too. We
kept ours and I have it displayed in our living room (you can see it here:
http://www.aswellplacetodwell.com/2012/03/cornbread-end-table.html ). It’s from lollipop
workshop on etsy – they have the cutest things! The hardest part is keeping our daughter away
from it. She wants to play Mommy & Daddy all the time!

We ate ours on our 3 month anniversary haha. Everyone said it would taste like a
freezer by one year, but at 3 months it was pretty tasty!

That is so cute! We had cupcakes at our wedding and bought a small Oreo cake to
go on the top for us to cut. Our plan was to just buy an Oreo cake for our anniversary instead o
eating old frozen cake, but naturally Oreo stopped making the regular cakes and only makes
ice cream cake now. I just bought a mini chocolate cake on my way home and we had that
instead haha.

Cute cute cute bunting!!! I love it and super simple too. Right up my ally!
We saved our cake topper and vacuum sealed it and to be perfectly honest? It was just as
good as the day we got married! I was glad we kept it!

I’m glad yours kept well! Clearly, I should invest in a vacuum sealer.
