THE renaissance lace originated in Venice, Italy, in the 16th century, and was introduced in Brazil by European nuns. The delicate embroidery technique was popularized by the hands of Northeastern lace makers, who pass the art from generation to generation.
The striking traits so characteristic of the technique, in which exclusive stitches and delicate interlaces predominate, can be perfectly reproduced by the hands of a skilled confectioner.
Called “lacy cakes”, the sweets that reproduce the embroidery technique are making the heads of the brides of the season, as the delicate and handmade look brings a touch of exclusivity and romanticism to the cake table.
Natural flowers or sugar replicas can be excellent accessories to decorate the lace cake, both in arrangements on top and in delicate ornaments spread across the floors.
For the bride and groom who prefer a clean but equally romantic cake, a good alternative is to insert Renaissance lace only in smaller details, such as bands on the tiers of the cake or small embroidery appliqués.
