Garden Cake

This cake was made for my dad's birthday, who belives that his garden is just as important as his children. He dutifully waters and takes care of it each and every day and makes sure eveything is neat, tidy and in place. I thought this cake would be fitting seeing as how it is him sitting beside a part of his garden.

I included a fondant figure of my dad alongside a tomato plant in a pot and cabbage, carrots and lettuce in a miniature garden setting. The cake flavours included lemon cake with vanilla buttecream and raspberry preserves.



Happy Birthday Papa!!

Trullo Cake

Today is my grandfather's birthday and to celebrate I created a cake to remind him of back home in Italy. My mother's family lived in a small town in Puglia where they lived in houses called Trulli. These odd shaped houses are an icon in and around the city and it is common for people to own more than one.

This trullo cake is vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream.


Happy Birthday Nonno!
