I’m so excited about this design - it was another learning experience (new bow style!). It’s covered in white fondant, decorated with a large sugar bow and some little sugar daisies, and finished with a pearly sheen.

Pink Hat Box Birthday Cake
Monday, August 3rd, 2009Tweety Bird Bridal Shower Cake
Monday, June 8th, 2009
This week’s latest project was a bridal shower cake that I completed for a party on Saturday… It’s a chocolate “cookies and cream” cake that’s done in the open gift box style (both the bottom and top of the box are made from cake). It’s covered in Tiffany-blue vanilla fondant and decorated with gumpaste accents, including a hand-modeled Tweety bird holding an engagement ring made entirely from sugar.
Gift Box Baby Shower Cake
Sunday, March 8th, 2009I’m so excited about this latest cake… One of the executives at my company and his wife recently adopted a beautiful baby boy, and we’re doing a shower in the family’s honor tomorrow. This cake is a “gift box cake” as made famous by Confetti Cakes in NYC… Such a fun cake to make, and it really makes a statement (or so I think!). The cake itself is sour cream white cake, and the filling/frosting is lemon curd buttercream. I’m also providing vanilla/vanilla cupcakes to go along with the cake.
