Wedding Cake House restoration brings new 'icing' to iconic Kennebunk landmark

KENNEBUNK, Maine — Almost all wedding cakes need bakers for their icing. When your wedding cake is a historic and beloved home at 104 Summer Street in Kennebunk, however, you need John Desmarais and his crew at Shoreline Millwork in Somersworth, New Hampshire. For much of this year, Desmarais and his team have been crafting cellular PVC trim to replicate and replace the old, wooden, and heavily deteriorated “icing” that decorated the Wedding Cake House for decades. Desmarais said cellular PVC is an ideal substitute for wood when it comes to exterior trim and architectural detail. “It will never swell, rot, split, crack, or delaminate like wood,” Desmarais said. “It is high-density plastic, making it moisture- and insect-resistant, unlike clear and premium lumber. It is ideal for exterior design products.” Including on the Wedding Cake House — one of the most photographed homes in Maine .
