With mint and grey two top wedding colours amongst brides this summer, we’re highlighting mint and grey foliage this week as the perfect accent to pastel sugar flowers for a soft, floral garden style wedding cake design.<\/p>\n

Our feature cake above is by Leslea Matsis<\/a> – a textured buttercreamed creation crowned with her signature impeccable roses and powder pink peonies, with little sprays of dusty miller peeping through for pretty silver\/grey colour contrast.<\/p>\n
