The Sweet Charm of Bows and Rosettes on Cakes

Lately, one cake design has been making a frequent appearance in my kitchen, and honestly, I’m not mad about it! This two-tier cake, with its vintage swirls, bows, and frilly details, has been one of the most requested styles I’ve made.

I’ve created this cake in different color combinations, sometimes swapping in buttercream flowers or adjusting the piping details, and every version has its own unique charm. It’s one of those designs that feels like it belongs at any celebration—a birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, or even just a fancy gathering where cake is a must (which, in my opinion, is always).

I love that people keep coming back for this design and asking for their own version of it!
