No on Prop 8 Cake

Friday, October 31st, 2008

I’m so proud of all of my friends who are standing up for my rights and the rights of all of the other gays and lesbians in this state. They are showing a wonderful spirit in the fight for equal rights.

The history of marriage has included some dark times when interracial marriages were not allowed, and no one now can imagine such discrimination. We need to keep discrimination out of the California Constitution. It’s unfair and it’s wrong.

Vote No on Prop 8. Vote for equality for all.

Purple Topsy Turvy 26th Birthday Cake

Monday, October 27th, 2008

Shiny numbers atop a cute topsy turvy cake declare that someone special is turning 26. With silver stars, and colorful baubles and dots, this cake already looks like it’s dressed and dancing at the party.

We love to hear what our clients think of their cakes:

Louis Vuitton Purse Cake

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Mary’s 60th birthday was celebrated at the wine cellar of Wente Vineyard in Livermore. If you haven’t been there, you’re missing a beautiful setting for wine tasting and great music.

We learned that Mary and her daughter, Sheri, both love traveling and cake. Sheri chose the Louis Vuitton cake made of red velvet, and we knew that would be the perfect gift from daughter to mother. You can’t leave your favorite purse at home when looking for great cake!

The Louis Vuitton purse cake has a copy of In Style magazine with a wish, “Happy 60th Birthday Mary!” A message from her daughter on her iPod reads “60 Rocks”. Also on the pink and gold tiles are the Louis Vuitton coin purse and charms.

Happy Birthday Mary!

**********************************************************
Update–We received a note about the cake:

Hi Amy,

Sheri

Police Car Groom’s Cake

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Groom’s cakes are becoming increasingly popular at weddings. Most people remember the red velvet armadillo groom’s cake for Julia Roberts’ wedding to Dylan McDermott in Steel Magnolias. Today’s groom’s cakes are still often playful gestures of love from the bride to the groom, though that can take any form.

Lisa married her policeman at the East Ridge Golf Club in Gilroy last weekend. She provided many pictures of her fiance (at the time) and his police car so that we knew all of the details of the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor to make his groom’s cake. We couldn’t resist adding the blue and red lights that really bring a police car to life. Now we’re wondering what other cakes could use a light.
