Love Travels Oceans http://sweetflamingo.com/cakes/20120726/love-travels-oceans/ http://sweetflamingo.com/cakes/20120726/love-travels-oceans/#comments Fri, 27 Jul 2012 01:15:30 +0000 http://sweetflamingo.com/?p=2179 We always like to try and tell a story with our cakes, and this one says so much…

Loves travels across oceans. George from Thessaloniki, Greece, left home to come to the states for school. Little did he know that he would soon meet the love of his life, Teri! She wanted to surprise George with a groom’s cake to depict all his favorites of home, as well as the story of meeting his bride to be! We did our best to include every important detail from the White Tower in George’s hometown, favorite football (soccer) team, love of sailing – to coming to North Carolina, attending North Carolina State University, meeting Teri at Bogart’s, and of course falling in love!

Best wishes Teri & George  on their recent marriage! We look forward to the stories to come!

North Carolina Cake:
Chocolate Kahlua Cream Cake, Coconut Cream Filling, & Dark Chocolate Ganache

Greece Cake:
Cardamom Pistachio Cake, Milk Chocolate Buttercream Filling, & White Chocolate Ganache

And we were thrilled to be asked to be a part of his very special day. Being an avid collector of rare US coins &  World War I model planes his special cake had to represent his favorite past times.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB!

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

When we met with the birthday girl, we were provided with an exact drawing along with specific instructions concerning the cake’s details and color. Following her instructions, we did our best to make sure this cake was extra special for her!

The party goers also were given fun & creative favors to take home – Paint Pallet Cake Balls!” Each cake ball was created to give the look of paint in an artist’s paint pallet. After the children have enjoyed their tasty treats, the pallets & brushes can then be reused for even more colorful fun!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLIVIA JANE!

Cake: Pink Lemonade
Filling: Marshmallow Cream
