Here is my very first Chandelier cake. My brother (the groom), hubby and myself nutted out how to make it (couldn’t afford a tutorial :-( ). Because the venue was almost 3 hours away from all of us, we couldn’t keep checking to see if it was going to work. Our first look at it was about 4pm the afternoon before the wedding. It was a high 38°c outside, and the marquee had it’s sides on and no air conditioning!!!!! Once the sides came off it wasn’t too bad….
The top tier was a massive 18″ × 4″, then 14", 10", 6". To give a better idea of size, another of my brothers is pictured under the chandelier cake.

I also made the gown, as that is actually what my profession is :-)
