Haute couture, cars, babies and soccer ball parties

We've been so busy in the kitchen sending out all sorts of afternoon tea and birthday cakes for our corporate clients I haven't had a chance to blog some of our fun customized cakes. Our white quilted chanel bag was so popular we just made another pink version (There'll be another version coming on later today with a louboutin stiletto to match! ). For this pink chanel bag we made our classic dark chocolate cake with valrhona 70% guanaja buttercream.

We also made this smashing 3d lightning mcqueen chocolate cake. All details including windshield wipers, wheels and lightning mcqueen's 95 number are all made of edible fondant decorations and all crafted by hand! The inside of lightning mcqueen is again our delicious dark chocolate cake with valrhona 70% guanaja buttercream.
