I’m so thrilled I got to do this. I’d be too intimidated to take on a really large-scale wedding cake, but this 6 inch cake for 8 people was totally perfect!
Recipes will be in the comments because it won’t let me link here, but it’s super moist almond cake with lemon curd and Swiss meringue buttercream!

I’d highly recommend all of these recipes! The cake was a little finicky but came out just as moist and delicious as I hoped. I used vanilla instant pudding instead of instant clearjel as the recipe suggested for a substitute.
Beautiful!
This is STUNNING. Wow.
It’s perfect!
Well done!
This looks amazing, i take my hat to you. Minimalistic cakes are tricky because everything needs to be perfect. And now i’m craving cake ahah.
It’s freaking gorgeous
The last photo has some old school vibes to it.
