1,001 Arabian Nights




For a special birthday with an Arabian night theme, we made a beautiful cake (inside is our delicious strawberry cake and fresh strawberry buttercream) and decorated it with Arabian themed designs. We first covered the cake with purple fondant and then we hand drew "Happy Birthday" in arabic, moons, stars and genie lamp designs around the cake. Finally we also hand crafted a very special edible magic carpet and golden genie lamp as well!

Louis Vuitton and Tiffany's!




For an absolutely unforgettable going away party for Nagi, Ken and Mike. We made an absolutely stunning 3d cake shaped into Louis Vuitton suitcases and a Tiffany's gift box. The bottom layer is chocolate cake with Valrhona 70% guanaja buttercream, second layer is white chocolate raspberry with valrhona ivoire buttercream and top layer is carrot with our madagascar bourbon vanilla cream cheese frosting. All decorations are completely edible. Each and every Louis Vuitton monogram, suitcase clasp and gold button was painstakingly hand crafted out of fondant. We also made a special Louis Vuitton suitcase tag to wish Nagi, Ken and Mike a great move to Japan!

Winnie and Marcus wedding cookie party favors





We love collaborating with the Wedding Company cause they always give us super fun projects and this was one of them. For a wedding this past Sunday at the Grand Hyatt for Winnie and Marcus we made 860 cookies each with either a W or and M inscribed on top. To guarantee that each and every W and M were exactly the same font we first traced it out with parchment and chocolate royal icing and then carefully placed each and every one on a pink background shortbread cookie. We then dotted little white polka dots around the side. We wrapped one of the W and one of the Ms into 430 cookie bags and ribboned tied them with a beautiful red ribbon and a Winnie and Marcus "Recipe for Love" tag. These cookies looked beautiful against the backdrop of the Grand Hyatt ballroom!

More alphabet cupcakes



We've been crazy busy cutting out tonnes of alphabets for our special alphabet cupcakes. Here are a bunch with some special birthday messages !

Bellinis and Cupcake party favors!



For a special 38th Birthday held at Cipriani, we delivered dozens of cupcakes each individually packaged and ribbon tied in our beautiful party favor boxes. On every other cupcake we wrote either a number 38 or an "S" for birthday boy Stanford. We delivered these to Cipriani and placed each and every cupcake on their signature plates. What better to go with a bellini and a delicious Sift cupcake ?
