Affectionately known as The Queen of Cake, Sylvia Weinstock, the grande dame of all things wedding cake chic, has partnered with Ladurée—bringing her signature brand of timeless elegance and creative flair to the famed French franchise in the form of custom specialty cakes pour le mariage.

Having started her baking empire at the ripe young age of 50, the now 89-year-old Brooklyn-based cake maven knows a thing or two about wedding style. Averse to the modern large-scale cake hack known as fondant, Weinstock is a firm believer in crafting her masterpieces with classic butter cream—as is the French way—making her union with the Parisian patisserie perhaps the perfect marriage of all.

“While I closed my New York Studio last year, I continue to be inundated with requests for cakes and recommendations of other bakers,” Weinstock is quoted on the Ladurée site. “In truth, I could not vouch for the quality of any other business than my own – until I met Elisabeth Holder. Elisabeth and Ladurée subscribe to my philosophy of cake: it must not only be artful, but delicious, and made with the best and most natural ingredients in the marketplace. It is an honor to be invited to the Ladurée family by Elisabeth, and I am grateful to now have a place I can proudly recommend to my dear clients and friends for their celebrations.”
