A few months ago we shot a video with Satin Ice to help display all the great things you can do with their fondant. Check out our video here! Besides our video, Satin Ice also has videos from other great cake designers include Collette Peters, Elisa Strauss, Buddy Valastro, Ron Ben-Israel & Jorge Amsler.

First came the engagement cake, and this weekend we had the pleasure of creating this 2 tier bridal shower cake for our customer. The top of the cake has a brown sugar treasure chest with a diamond ring on top. The base of each tier has gold cummerbunds with gold starfish, glitter and a crystal brooch. Fondant sea shells and gold glitter round out the base of the cake. Flavors included coconut cake with 2 layers of raspberry buttercream and one layer of coconut buttercream.

This fun Bat Mitzvah cake includes a girl in a betsy johnson dress sitting at the base near the top of the cake. At the top of the cake is a gold tiara with gems sitting on top of a pillow. We custom build a gold footed sugar cake pedestal surrounded with 14 candles in glittery fondant balls around the base of board.

Major colors include pink, purple, orange, lime and black. The cake was delivered to Greenbrook Country Club in North Caldwell NJ

I shot this video while at the shop:

The flavors included pistachio cake with vanilla buttercream, vanilla with hazelnut buttercream, pink velvet with raspberry chambord buttercream, and chocolate with oreo buttercream.

Special thanks to Jaimalla for leaving us this comment. We are so happy her daughter enjoyed the cake:

A smiling green alligator tops this 2 tier 1st birthday cake. The top tier is decorated with lime and yellow polka dots covering marble baby blue fondant. The unique flavors include pistachio with cream cheese and marble cake with chocolate custard.

My friend Kristen turned 30th this past weekend and to celebrate her birthday we created this cake fashioned after her Trullo in Italy that she is restoring. Inside the cake is vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream. We delivered the cake to Kinnelon, NJ.

Head over to the newly relaunched chatterberries.com and catch a video we shot at the shop.  I talk about all sorts of things including how we started, our experiences shooting for Food Network and our favorite cakes.

Here’s a clip from the video:

September in NJ brings cooler weather and lots of weddings. This weekend we created 120 orange velvet cupcakes with vanilla buttercream for a wedding reception at the Chart House in Weehawken, NJ.

Along with the cupcakes we created a topper cake decorated in ivory pearl fondant with a light brown ribbon around the middle with a gold sparkly brooch in the center. We used natural toned orange roses on the top of the cake with lime green hypericum berries. To complete the package, the bride and groom rented our medium cupcake stand to display the topper cake and cupcakes.

Fatima left us this wonderful comment about her stand. Thanks Fatima!

Wow, Anne these are my cupcakes! Thank you soooo very much. It looked absolutely stunning with my theme/decor etc. I mean it was just perfect. Not only that but these were the best cupcakes i have ever tasted! Sean and i intended to feed each other just a bite of one cupcake at the reception. However, we ended up feeding each other 2 cupcakes lol! Yes in front of everyone! We just couldn’t stop.

People are still calling me about the cupcakes and we just returned from our honeymoon lastnight. As soon as I receive my photos i will be sure to send you one of the setup. My florist made a bed of grass and he had orange roses coming up out of the grass. It was gorgeous. I can’t wait for you to see! Thank you again Anne. You’re truly amazing!

We included sets of swiss dots and silver piping to match the bride’s dress on this 3 tier round wedding cake. Fuchsia satin ribbons and calla lillies top off the rest of the cakes highlights. Inside the 3 tier cake was pink velvet cake with raspberry chambord buttercream and hazelnut buttercream. We delivered the cake to Douglaston Manor in Queens, NY.

Vanessa left us this wonderful comment. Thanks Vanessa!

We absolutely loved our wedding cake! I plan on writing a detailed thank you when the thank you cards arrived, but I thought I should respond to these comments as well. Everyone at our wedding could not stop talking about the cake! And it was absolutely delicious as well! I could not have dreamed of a better wedding cake, and I can’t wait to get the photos back of us enjoying it! Thank you Pink Cake Box for doing such a wonderful job!

Our contemporary graphite color wedding cakes were featured in Real Simple Magazine’s daily find section this week.

From the article:

Why have one cake when you can have three? This trio of graphite fondant-covered cakes by New Jersey–based baker Pink Cake Box fills up a dessert table. Plus, you can select three different flavor combinations. Here, a dark-chocolate cake with gianduja-chocolate ganache is flanked by a coconut cake with toasted-almond buttercream filling (near right) and a pistachio cake with chai-tea mousse (far right).
