Last weekend, we delivered this bridal shower shoe box cake to Thyme cafe in Roslyn, NY. The bottom tier (the leopard print shoe box) is vanilla bean cake with chocolate ganache and raspberry preserves. The top cake (the pink shoe box) is red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting). The pink lid is vanilla bean cake. The handmade high heel is decorated with a leopard print with a pink instep and has the bride-to-be's name painted on as the label. I also included a gift card made of sugar from endless.com (a private joke between the guest of honor and her family). Finally, we added tissue paper also made from sugar paste to the top box and base.
We also delivered this wedding cake to a private residence in Tribeca. The entire cake is carrot with cream cheese frosting. I added the word "love" to the top tier and hand painted hearts in red, orange, yellow and purple with a graffiti style in mind. This cake was very time consuming, but a lot of fun to make. The bride didn't give me a specific design, but she said she loved hearts and color and wanted the cake to be somewhat non-traditional.
Whoa these cakes are so cool! You are insanely talented and I am really impressed. I don't understand how you do it!
