The cake atErica Vazquez-Bacardi and Joey Depriest-Capparelli’s weddingfeatured two of the bride and groom’s favorite flavors — plus her family’s signature liquor.
The towering, seven-tiered show-stopper included vanilla and chocolate flavors, plus Bacardi 8 creme anglaise and D’usse cognac caramel sauce.
“The wedding cake was a course in itself,” said Laure Hitzig Clavette, director of catering at the hotel. “It was a duo plate that brings tradition and modern design together in a colorful and fresh presentation featuring the couples' favorite flavors, along with a nod to the family brand incorporated in the sauces used to complement each cake flavor.”
Meanwhile, the chocolate-flavored portion offered a chocolate mousse filling, chocolate ganache icing and the Bacardi 8 rum creme anglaise — all accentuated with berries gelato and popcorn puff.
