Baby Elephants for a New Mom & Dad!

As you might remember, a few months ago we asked by Erin & Isaac to create them a special cake to tell them what their new bundle of joy would be. Well, if you guessed a little baby boy, you were correct! We were thrilled to receive another request for a cake to help them celebrate their recent baby shower. After talking with a friend of the happy couple, and brainstorming different ideas, we were shown an image of the cute bedding (By Restoration Hardware Baby & Child) purchased to be in the new nursery. And of course after seeing it we KNEW the cake just had to match!

Cake: Lemon Tart
Filling: Strawberry Puree
Frosting: Marshmallow Buttercream
