Wow Factor tackles Emily Maynard's wedding cake

For former Bachelorette star Emily Maynard’s luxe wedding to Tyler Johnson in June, wedding designer and planner Ivy Robinson turned to Dilworth-based cake designer Amy Craparo of Wow Factor Cakes. The four-tier cake was hand-painted in blush and gold with a watercolor effect. Edible sugar flowers atop the cake were inspired by Maynard’s bouquet and took Craparo three weeks to make by hand.
