Doggy Groom’s Basketball Cake (2389)

French Bulldog Groom’s Cake

This past weekend we created a surprise groom’s cake for Suzanne’s fiance. The couple celebrated their wedding at the beautiful Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange, NJ.

The cake was a replica of the couple’s French Bulldog Jacques-Henri. The dog is dressed in a sporty rugby t-shirt. He’s sitting obediently on a basketball court with a small basketball chew toy by his side

What a cute face!

The entire sculpted cake is chocolate and filled with peanut butter buttercream.

We hope the groom was surprised!

Update: Suzanne left us this WONDERFUL testimonial via email a few days ago:

Dear Pink Cake Box Team,

In a word: “incredible.”

Every single one of my guests and I couldn’t believe the Georgetown French Bulldog cake was a real cake! The brilliant details were just outstanding and so life-like: enough so that when I cut into the cake to eat it, my (new) husband had to leave the room because the cake looked too much like our little man, Jacques-Henri! It was DELICIOUS too. You guys are amazing.

I can’t thank you enough for making us an orange basketball that was in proportion to the cake – I was thrilled to see that was on the court and so appreciative that you included it. I attached a picture of Justin’s Georgetown Law buddies who immediately surrounded the cake to take a picture with it. And of course, one of the bride and groom : )

You guys are the first on my list for recommendations and future cakes for our new family!

All the best,
Suzanne
