Who can resist a fork full of fluffy white cake, wrapped in creamy, succulent buttercream icing, filled with luscious, rich raspberry jam and–HOLD THE PHONE!?! What’s that??? FONDANT? (insert sour face here).

Ok, sugar snobs, come back down to earth. The good news is fondant is not the enemy! These days fondant is sporting a new DNA that makes it another tasty level in your dream cake. Plus, the perks are endless with a seemingly unending potential of creative possibilities. Ornate flowers, life-like statuettes, textures and more.

Springtime is almost upon us and all of the colorful flowers will soon be peeking their heads out from the grass. Orchids, daffodils, lilies and of course, tulips! And we just happened to find a dress that fits that springtime feel.

Rivini Tulipe – This floor length organza taffeta gown from Rivini’s Spring 2010 collection has a dropped waist and a chapel length train. While the dress is a traditional ball gown, the ruffles add just the right amount of flair, while the added ruffle accent all around the strapless neckline ties the entire look together. Reminiscent of a tulip’s petals, the layered ruffles and drama to the dress and will be sure to wow you and all of your guests.

If you’re thinking about a springtime wedding, definitely consider this beautiful gown as a possibility. If you’d like to try it on, head over to the famed Bridals by Lori salon and ‘say yes to the dress’!

Okay, who else wants to confess an undeniable obsession with PAPER? The way it smells, all the different textures and how crisp it looks all stacked, wrapped or tied up. Well, fellow addicts–you ain’t seen nothing yet!
