The next was a Bat Mitzvah, done at the Forsgate Country Club in New Jersey. The lucky girl was having a fancy shopping, shoe, and handbag theme! She picked out the cake design she wanted completely, plus sent me the Christian Louboutin shoe she wanted me to replicate in sugar, and is completely edible. The cupcakes surrounding the cake were for the candlelighting ceremony, so that the candles did not have to be stuck directly into the cake itself:
Lastly, was a replica of a previous design I have on my website, which is a sculpted stork carrying a bundle of baby bear! Of course each cake is unique and can never be a perfect replica but its basically the same. At the venue they had the party, the caterer had a rule they would not serve any outside cakes. So they served the cake from the caterer, but were able to use my cake for display, and then take it home! Hey all the better....all that rich fudgy cake goodness full of chocolate ganache and chocolate buttercream gets to feed their family and friends for the next week or two! :-) Everything on this cake is edible, with a few internal supports inside that are not edible. The head of the stork and the head of the baby bear are made of rice krispy treats. There is no styrofoam in this cake. The satin is there to give the idea that the stork's long legs are hiding in a cloud of baby sweetness. :-)
I hope everyone is enjoying this lovely fall weather! I just had my first Pumpkin Cappo/Coffee of the season this morning....Mmmmm.... and cake is in the oven as I am typing this, making the house warm and yummy smelling. Have a GREAT week!!!!
