Striped Bass 30th Birthday Cake

There never seems to be an end to the variety of cakes we are asked to create. Last weekend we sculpted a Striped Bass from chocolate fudge cake with Cannoli filling and Belgian chocolate chips. Delivered to a 30th birthday dinner for a fanatical fisherman at the Freemans Restaurant in the Lower East Side of New York City NY. When we walked in all the customers were pointing and trying to decide if this was a dish from the kitchens, or.... could it really be a cake?

Porsche 911 Racing Car Birthday Cake

We can't all own a fabulous sports car, but we can have a flashy cake!

This week we carved a fabulous red Porsche 911 cake out of chocolate fudge cake with cannoli filling and chunks of Belgian chocolate. The cake is covered in red and yellow fondant, with a racing livery, and personalized license plates for a second birthday party in Watchung NJ.

Jasmine Sari Hexagon Wedding Cake

Our bride requested a hexagon shape wedding cake covered in ivory color fondant. Inside the six tiers are layers of almond pound cake with dulce de leche cream, and chocolate fudge cake with Cannoli filling.

A fondant sari with red pearls is draped around the cake, which is then decorated with clusters of lilac and white jasmine sugar flowers. On top is a plum colored vase molded from sugar and containing a jasmine bouquet.

Delivered to a reception at the Royal Albert Palace in Fords NJ.

Gold Leaf Fourtieth Birthday Cake

A delicious two tier white vanilla cake and chocolate genoise with alternating layers, and with Cannoli cream filling. I like the way these cakes look when you cut them with their multi-colored layers.

Light pink fondant covers the cake, which I then decorated with hand painted gold leaves and flowers, gold fondant beads circling each tier, plus a monogram I piped on top. The cake was delivered to a 40th birthday party in Warren NJ.

Oscar de la Renta Shoe Bridal Shower Cake

A white Oscar de la Renta shoe with sugar flowers sits on top of the cake, also a bridal bouquet of Calla Lillies with sugar pearls decorate the front. We delivered the cake to a Bridal Shower at Luce Restaurant in Caldwell NJ.

The bottom tier is a pink hat box with grey fondant lid, then a zebra print Jimmy Choo shoebox. On top is a classic black MAC shopping bag with a compact, lipsticks and eyeshadow.

Rocky Boxing Ring Groom's Cake

This boxing ring groom's cake was designed for a Rocky fanatic, with a vintage Rocky Balboa message requested by the bride piped on the side.

The vanilla cake has a cannoli filling and is covered in black and yellow fondant. An Italian stallion logo is in the middle of the ring, a black boxing robe with the same emblem is in the champion's corner.

Other accessories include a water bottle, boxing gloves and the champion's red white and blue belt.

A two tier 70th birthday cake topped with a Kawasaki Vulcan motorbike and figures modeled out of fondant. An asphalt road winds up the cake, decorated with trees and bushes.

The pink fondant is embossed with a quilted diamond pattern and swiss dots, pink fondant bows and sugar butterflies surround the cake, which is topped with a rosary decorated with tiny flowers.

Ultimate Fighting Championship Cake

What better for a fan of the Ultimate Fighting Championship than a UFC ring cake? This octagonal ring is made with layers of vanilla and chocolate fudge cake, plus a delicious cannoli filling. The cake is covered in a light gray fondant, with a mesh ring surround. Additional decorations include a pair of boxing gloves, a UFC champions belt and the sponsors logos (Bud Light, Harley Davidson Mortorcycles and TapOut). I know it's gruesome, but I also had a special request to add a splat of fondant blood on the ring! The cake was delivered to the birthday party in Fairfield NJ.
