Relax The Back promotion

Hello all!
I wanted to share a cake that I made for 92.5 FM the Bear. This particular cake was made for the "Relax the Back" store in Peach tree City, Georgia. The Bear was airing live at the store on February 21, 2009. I made a sheet cake then decorated it to look like a Tempur-pedic mattress, complete with a bed skirt and pillows....take a look!

Boni (marketing director for 92.5 FM the Bear) wrote bake to me...."We absolutely loved our Sweet Infinity cake for our promotion. The owners of Relax The Back were thrilled with the custom design of one of their products! Your attention to detail is awesome. We will always call you first for our cakes"


Thanks Boni

I hope you all like the cake-Bubba sure did!

50th wedding ann. cake

Hello!

Another cake for you....this was a 50th wedding anniversary cake done in November of last year. The cake itself was a true English pound cake with real vanilla butter cream. I pipped some scrolls on the side then inlaid gold edible pearls into the icing.....the client reported that the people loved every bite of it.....the colors were light ivory, a darker ivory and gold. Rona's Flower Shop provided the cake topper that held white roses, gold metallic leaves and 2 small doves......

Hello again!

I wanted to share this photo today also. This cake was made for a going away part for a lady who was leaving Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Peachtree City. We called it "Stairway to Heaven". It is a 4-tiered white chocoloate fondant square cake. We used a special rose called "chocolate rose". These flowers are so beautiful.....they are coral and yellow and the tips are brownish red in color. The whole of the cake was adorned in fall colors. The corneli lace in the center of the stairs was piped in gold. The topper was made with fresh flowers and a large glod cross was at the top. The lady was moved to tears when she saw the cake. I stayed to help cut and serve. Everyone made comments on how good the cake looked as well as the taste. This was a fun cake!

How to buy a wedding cake.

Hi!

I wanted to share an article that I wrote on the ins and outs of buying a wedding cake. Here it is....I hope this helps in planning for your cake.

1) First and foremost, try to order at least 6 months in advance. A good designer needs time to plan and map out the perfect cake, espically if there is gumpaste flowers to be made, as this is done by hand.

2) When consulting with the cake designer, make sure there are cakes to sample. Request any special flavors before the meeting. Tast is important, and the fewer the surprises the better. Take photos of cakes, color schemes or any other ideas. This will help expidite the planning process.

3) Take into consideration the type of reception that you are planning and make sure to discuss this with the decorator. For example: if you are having an outside reception a cheese cake is not a good idea. Choose a cake that has a higher probibility of lasting through the day.

4) Go over details in the contract and make sure that it specifies details for cake cutting, set up, any rental, cake knife needs, payment details, floral details, and venue details. With respect to floral details, make sure to discuss any floral needs with the designer so they can coordinate efforts with the florist. With regard to the venue, discuss the details of the venue to ensure that the designer knows table details. This will provide smooth planning and a stress free day if everyone is on the same page.

5) If working on a budget, talk to your decorator about your concerns. Wedding cakes are expensive and there is a reason. Fondant and gumpaste flowers are high dollar items. If they are not in your budget, you might choose butter cream and fresh flowers instead. Another option is to scale down on the bridal cake itself, and add a sheet cake for the guest.

6) Ask to see pictures of the decorator's past work. Request letters of recommendations or testimonials from other brides. It is important to be confident in the capabilities of the designer.

7) Finally, be true to yourself. Remember this is your day. If your want a chocolate fandant covered bridal cake, then you should get it. When it comes to what's in style, who cares? If you like it, take the cake and run with it!

Good morning all!

I am having to retrospect all of last year's wedding cakes. Today will be of a cake, bridal and groom's, that I made in November. The family was a wonderful family to work with. They were a lot of fun. The bride chose the standard, no fail recipe of french vanilla, raspberry filling, almond butter cream icing and bright white-white chocolatefondant. I also inlaid edible white pearls into the fondant. You can see her wedding topper......she married into the family of the Marines. They were a really cute and nice couple. I made blue velvet sugar roses with silver accents. The groom wanted a key lime pie....so we turned it into a key lime pie chocolate groom's cake.....see the pics for yourself!

Have a good day!

I wanted to share this wedding that photo that was held Dec 24, 2008. I enjoyed working with the brides and groom. I think they had good taste! The florist was Lucas and Raelynn Patellas, owners of Tropical Gardens in Fayetteville, Georgia. They are amazing to work with!! The bride chose roses and white lillies. Lucas also had live christmas trees trimmed in blue lights brought in and placed around the ballroom. The wedding and the reception were held at Whitewater Country Club.

The buzz was the grooms cake. He was a graduate of GT. All of buzz was pipped!

Have a happy day all!
