結婚式に、ゴージャスな″天然石ケーキ″がトレンド？

以前紹介した「陶器のようなケーキ」に続いて、またもやビックリなケーキ情報をコスモポリタン アメリカ版からお届け。

今アメリカのウェディングシーンでは、伝統的なケーキではなく、ちょっと個性的なケーキに注目が集まっているもよう。それがこの、「天然石」を埋め込んだかのような神秘的なケーキ！

このケーキを手掛けたパン職人のレイチェル・トーフェルさんによると、「ケーキの天然石には氷砂糖を使用し、チョコレートや手描き、金箔などで作りあげている」のだそう。以下はSNSからピックアップした、傑作"天然石"ケーキ写真の数々。

まばゆい宝石

It's Monday, let's eat cake! Can you believe that the crystals on this cake are actually 'rock candy' sugar? Isn't it divine? Incredible artistry by @idosbydeb at the recent open house @thestudiocollectiveca #lenkalandweddings

ママへの贈り物

When you've got an irrational (or totally rational?!) fear of being struck by lightening ⚡️and the storm of the century rolls in right when it's time for bed so you try & quell all your fears by going down a rabbit hole of Internet to find yourself watching hours of cake tutorials to pretend the world isn't ending outside. ⛈ #currently #geodecake #omgamazing {via @ohitsperfect}

ウェディングだけでなく、母の日の贈り物にも！

優雅な休日

The "Geode Cake" is gaining prominence in the United States. I wonder how long until Australia brides and grooms embrace the trend? #weddingtrends #weddingcake #weddingcakeinspiration #geodecake #weddingstyling
