The three-tiered white wedding cake is always a crowd pleaser. It’s traditional and it’s truly bridal. Who knew there were so many options when it comes to a three-tiered white cake? Skye from Sunny Girl Cakes, that’s who. Today we have just a taste*, a nibble*, if you will, of a few of her recent creations.  For Rani and Alec’s beach wedding they prettied up a classic white sugar paste iced three-tier cake with colourful fresh flowers and included the unique and rustic touch of twine. The filling was Skye’s famous rich chocolate mud cake with chocolate ganache. Photo by Emma Nayler…
