Chalkboard Cakes

Chalkboard Cakes

I think we all know by now that I am utterly obsessed with chalkboard cakes. I cannot get enough! Finally, a trend that I can get behind! Everywhere I look, I see more inspiration for another beautiful chalkboard cake design. Flowers, foliage, scrollwork, typography. I wish there where more hours in the day. I’ve been working on some more designs with more lingering in the back on my mind but the original design still remains my favorite.

 

One of my new chalkboard designs with some gold greenery provided by Swoon Floral Design

In this design I experimented with colored chalk designs. I think I want to do another design using some pretty pinks!

The chalkboard trend is taking off everywhere! Check out this awesome cake designed by The Little Malvern Cake Company in Australia!

    It looks to be black fondant with sugar for the dirty chalk look? Is that correct?
