Bearded Lady Catering Co. very first catering...

This event for 65 people was a wedding for Clarissa and Doug. It was in this really great old building in Bellingham, WA called 'Broadway Hall'. They chose a theme of Mediterranean cuisine and a did all their own decorations to transform the hall into a sea scape beauty. The bride is completely vegan, meaning no meat, dairy or any other animal by-products. I was able to create a complete menu that pleased meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans alike, as well as one gluten free guest that did not include any meat or dairy.

Jordan made a beautiful vegan wedding cake with a sea scape look. This was made of a yellow cake, blackberry jam filling and a vanilla buttercream frosting.

Here is an adorable picture of Clarissa and Doug cutting the cake.

Buche Noel to you!

This is a traditional Buche Noel cake made by Melanie. It is made of a chocolate sponge cake, with a chocolate ganache and filling. It is decorated with homemade merigune mushrooms, little fruit sculped from fondant and fresh rosemary.

Crazy blue vegan cupcakes are coming to get you..

These are vegan yellow cake with a vegan vanilla buttercream gone blue!

Coconut cake

The beloved coconut cake, a white cake made with tons of butter and cream, but remarkably not overly sweet, with a coconut filling similar to one you would find in a German Chocolate cake, cream cheese frosting and toasted coconut bring it all together! I think Melanie's Step-Dad, John, is seriously addicted to this thing, but who can blame him!
