Happy Birthday to a Rising Artist

February 15, 2012 :: Posted by - Sweet Flamingo Cake Co. :: Category - Cake Pops, Cakes

Miss Olivia Jane recently turned 7 and, this up-and-coming artist was very particular about how she wanted her cake designed. 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!

Boy or Girl?

We were recently asked to create a very special cake for Erin & Isaac who will soon be new parents of a new little Pea!  One in which, the cake, would tell them whether they will be having a little baby boy or a girl. The awesome surprise was revealed by the cutting of the cake to see if it was blue or pink inside!
