We created this replica of the Metropolitan Diner in Fords, NJ for the owner’s birthday party. The dinner is decorated with hanging baskets of spring flowers and the front of the door awning reads “Happy Birthday Louie”. Inside the diner is marble cake with chocolate buttercream filling.

We received this great email from the birthday boy’s wife:

Good morning, I just wanted to thank you so much for the beautiful cake of our diner, I was greatly surprised at the detail.
Everyone loved it as did my husband the birthday boy. Thank you so much again!

Here’s a video I shot at the shop:

The top of this cake was inspired by our fashion pregnant woman topper. This topper includes a few changes, chief among them the topper which includes a small white and brown dog – a Brussels Griffin to be exact.

The top tier is decorated with 2d silhouettes of different dogs while the bottom tier is decorated based on a Burberry style check pattern.
Flavors include top tier chocolate cake with raspberry chambord and vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream.

The famous bull and bear which represent the ups and downs of the stock market are perfect themes to help celebrate the retirement and 70th birthday celebration of a life-long Wall Street employee.

The entire bear is edible with a combination of modeling chocolate, cake and rice krispy treats. The bull represents the famous bull down on Wall Street in battery park.  The bull is also edible with the exception of his legs which are made of PVC pipe covered in modeling chocolate.

I was excited to do this cake since it was the  fourth cake we’ve done for the same client.  We were lucky to be able to do her daughter’s engagement party, bridal shower, wedding, and now baby shower!  The cupcake topper includes a pregnant lady dressed in a pink ruffle top with brown pants. Next to her sits a brown and white bulldog. We decorated the topper with light pink fondant with polka dots in chartreuse, brown and shades of pink. Stripes at the base of the tier match the polka dots. Congratulations!

Our princess crown cake returns this week with a different color scheme. The top of the cake includes a hot pink crown and the top tier is covered in lime colored fondant with polka dots.

The flavors included dyed pink vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream and vanilla cake with raspberry chambord buttercream.

This cake of stacked law school books was created for a couple’s party to celebrate their wedding. The groom is in law school at Notre Dame – hence the books and Notre Dame mascot atop the cake. The flavors included red velvet with lemon cream cheese, chocolate cake with hazelnut buttercream and vanilla cake with mocha buttercream. The cake was delivered to the Canoe brook Country Club in Summit, NJ.

For this cupcake topper we modeled it after our Winter Wonderland Penguin Birthday Cake. The top of the cake includes a cute penguin along with several snowflakes. Along with the cupcake topper we included 50 matching cupcakes and our small cupcake stand.
