KTLA Beckoned...
Our favorite local television Morning News station (KTLA) called with a special request this week:
Make a special birthday cake for Los Angeles Sports Icon Jerry West!
.
But of course!
We created this full sheet cake (our marble cake w/chocolate chip filling & fresh butter creme icing) and made it shimmer with metallic gold for the legendary Laker.
The KTLA anchors presented it to him on air this morning...word is that West loved it so much he took the entire cake home with him!

Speaking of classics (ahem!) our signature cheeseburger cake with the works is as popular as ever...
Bursts of celebratory color set off this two-tiered special cake...
AND...
Cowabunga!

Beauty...
A combination of techniques here...airbrushed background color with an extra-large image of Beauty & The Beast (and friends,) surrounded by a special wide frame with swirl detail, which is continued around the sides of the cake. Finished off with an extra-delicate floral presentation and the name written on mini-cupcakes.

Happy Birthday dear Tori...
From People Magazine...
Dean McDermott had so many ways he wanted to celebrate Tori Spelling's 36th birthday that he took a long weekend to do them all. On May 14, the actor surprised his wife with a new tattoo: A large Koi fish symbolizing Tori, a tiger representing Dean, and three baby Koi fish for Liam, 2, Stella, 11 months, and (McDermott's son from a previous marriage) Jack, 10. The tattoo also featured peonies, which stand for health and prosperity, and the word "forever." "I did it to profess my undying love for my gorgeous wife and beautiful children," McDermott says of the creation, which took Tim Hendricks at Spotlight Tattoo in Hollywood seven hours to complete. "She loved it when I revealed it to her. She thinks it's beautiful, chic and sexy."
.
The following day – Tori's actual birthday – McDermott whisked her off for a weekend at hotel Casa del Mar in Santa Monica. And Saturday night, it was time for a party at the Vicery hotel, including a birthday cake from Hansen's Cakes. Says McDermott: "She was totally surprised when she saw all her friends there. It was awesome and she had a wonderful time."
Here is the actual image we used for the cake!

Show & Tell...
Time to share some lovely cake designs with you!
Here is our ever-popular basket of flowers...this particular order required our artist to incorporate the unusually large amount of words in the inscription into the design.

Sometimes less is more, but other times, you gotta say what you gotta say!
