Johanna wanted a very specific cake for her daughter's birthday, and I couldn't wait to meet the challenge! This party was for 100 people. And it's a 7" round, 9" round and 12x12 square cakes. She purchased the 10" cake stand, so we needed to make it work with that, along with the "look" of the cake she found and wanted to recreate. The inside of these cakes are coconut, raspberry mousse, and chocolate cake. The circles are covered in fondant and the square is buttercream iced. The purple seaweed is gumpaste. There are candy shells that I made and the pearls are edible as well. The only thing you cannot consume on this cake is the Ariel candle on top. The hardest part about making this cake was seeing my daughter react to it and wonder why it wasn't for her. The surprise part about this cake (to me) was that the party was outdoors (poolside), so I wanted to be sure they could keep it inside for as long as possible before putting it out in the heat. All in all, I was very pleased with the end result.
OMG!! Was so delicious!! It was unbelievable! I hated to cut it to serve it! But all took lots of photos and duly oooohed and ahhhhed a lot! It was just magnificent! Thank you, so much the most beautiful cake ever! Best, Johanna
Lovely birthday party it was. I am in love with the theme. At one of the Los Angeles venues I too am going to celebrate my son’s birthday in a funky style. It would be a huge outdoor party at one of the Los Angeles venues. We have been really busy these days in doing the preparations. The kids are super excited.
