We held a cake decorating class this past Sunday with a great group of 6 women. Emily and I lead the class in instruction included filling, squaring off, stacking, and fondanting. Everyone finished the class with their own 2 tier cake.

One of the students left me this great thank-you note after the class:
Hi Anne,
I just wanted to thank you for the class on Sunday. I had the best time and learned so much, you have no idea. I got a hero’s welcome when I got home and everyone was amazed by how beautiful the cake looked and how adorable “Simon” the elephant was. And then poof! it was gone — eaten and enjoyed, but not before I took many, many pictures.
Thank you again. If you ever need an “older” intern — look no further! I’m yours!
Best regards,
Linda
Stay tuned for more classes and sign up here for more information.

It may be hard to see in this photograph, but we’ve created a topsy turvy version of our popular gift box cake. This color scheme for this cake includes silver, ivory and dark brown. The bottom box includes polka dots and the top of the cake includes a glittery silver bow with a crystal brooch in the center. We delivered the three tier cake to Cucina Calandra in Fairfield, NJ.

I just wanted to thank everyone at Pink Cake Box for making such an awesome cake for my mother’s birthday! This past year has been a difficult one for my mother and this day seemed to turn everything around. When she saw her family and the cake, she cried! The cake really captured everything that she enjoys. It was difficult bringing ourselves to cut the cake, but we did! And it was delicious. I cannot wait to book the next cake. Thanks again!!

The topper cake includes a bride dressed in a pink dress with a lab coat and the groom on one knee with the engagement ring. The cake is covered in green fondant and decorated with brown and light pink polka dots.
