Best choice 500kg cake covered in 33,000 flower petals

Spanish pastry chef Marc Suarez has created an extraordinary wedding cake for a Saudi royal family.  The giant cake stands 3.5 meters tall is 1.8 meters wide

and weighs around 500 kilograms.

Months of planning and work

According to reports Suarez spent about six weeks designing the cake and another four months bringing the idea to life. Although he normally works alone this huge project required help from several pastry chef friends their families and other people close to him.

Thousands of handmade flowers

One of the biggest challenges was creating and coloring around 33,000 flower petals.  Each petal had to be carefully prepared and placed with branches and flowers to create the final design. Friends family members and others also helped with the detailed work.

Suarez said the project required around 1,800 hours of work in total. The finished cake looks less like a traditional wedding cake and more like a large piece of art that could be displayed in a museum.

A grand wedding in paris

The enormous cake was presented at the Paris Opera Garnier during the wedding of a Saudi couple. The bride and groom chose to keep their identities private but their wedding featured a cake that was certainly difficult to forget.

The project shows how pastry can go beyond food and become a form of art creativity and craftsmanship.
