Birthday Cake With Butterflies and Flowers

Posted by Tasty House on Saturday, 5 June 2010 , under , | comments (0)



Here is a birthday cake which was finished within a very short time, it took just over 24 hours to make (or was is less?) from cake baking to cake icing. We are so pleased with the outcome that we quickly took these pictures so that you can see our efforts to come out with something good within such a short period given to produce this cake.




Word has it that our client couldn't figure out what to buy his wife on her birthday. So along came a little 'birdie' who told this young man about the unique cakes that we make. He gives us a ring, and due to the time given to make this birthday cake, we almost refused. But being a 'friend of a friend' and the mere fact that he was throwing a big party (ka ching!) meaning, another oppurtunity to promote and show people what we do. Let me leave you with these pictures while I go and take a well deserved nap!

This Birthday Cake was particularly made to order, because of the 'Gothic' inclination of the celebrant. It was a surprise birthday present from the celebrant's boyfriend. He wanted a befitting cake that would portray her as someone to believe, accept, & love, all at the same time.
