Just a quick post this morning, as I'm finishing up the last few small things I need to do before my friends come over this afternoon. I commissioned a birthday cake from a talented woman I know who's a self-taught baker and trying to establish her own small business. I decided I wanted a yellow layer cake with chocolate icing, and as for decorations, I told her to "make it a nature theme, maybe with flowers, bugs, grass, etc., and just be creative and surprise me". This is what she came up with......
Isn't it gorgeous?!?! I think she did a fantastic job! It's almost too pretty to cut. :)
Here's a link to Jess's Instagram with some more examples of her work if you're interested.

Wow, that's a cake and a half! Wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI was so pleased with it!
DeleteIt's GORGEOUS! I love it! I know you do too.
ReplyDeleteI really, really did. And Jess is a good woman so I was happy to support her side business, too!
DeleteHow cute is that!?! I bet it will taste fabulous too! Have a wonderful time with your friends!
ReplyDeleteWe had a good time together, but it was tiring to me. We're all out of the habit of socializing!
DeleteToo amazing to eat!! That woman has skills!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I told her the cake was too pretty to cut, she said, "No, cakes are meant to be eaten!" and I do agree with her!
DeleteBEAUTIFUL CAKE! bet it tastes good too. love the small details.
ReplyDeleteThe small details are the best! There's even moss on one side!
DeleteWonderful! And it even goes well with your kitchen! May she have huge success!
ReplyDeleteThat was actually her kitchen in these photos! :) I hope she DOES have huge success...she's a good egg and deserves it!
DeleteThat cake is beautiful! She is very talented!
ReplyDeleteShe really is. Not just with cakes, either!
DeleteI would be easy to fall in love with that cake but looks aren't everything. How did it taste?
ReplyDeleteIt tasted very good!
DeleteThat cake is beauteous. She should do well.
ReplyDeleteI think she's getting more orders than she can comfortably fill at the moment, given that she has a full time job elsewhere!
DeleteI am so impressed, that cake is gorgeous and followed the theme you requested.
ReplyDeleteA teacher friend from work said "It suits you to a tea!" Lol.
DeleteWay too pretty to cut - but I hope it tastes even better. The mushrooms are very clever touch I think.
ReplyDeleteThe mushrooms were my favorite part! They look like those magic mushrooms that grow in the far north! :)
DeleteThat's a beautiful, fanciful cake! -Jenn
ReplyDeleteIt made me so happy when she sent me the pictures of it!
DeleteThat's gorgeous! My daughter in law has just started making the most fantastical cakes. I said, "How on earth did you learn to do this." The answer came, "You Tube." These cake decorators are amazing.
ReplyDeleteYou can learn to do almost anything with the help of YouTube!
DeleteThat's beautiful! At least you've documented it photographically. I'm sure it will taste amazing too, even the bugs. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was very tasty! I thought the same as you...at least it was documented with lots of pictures!
DeleteThe cake looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt was very tasty. Hard to go wrong with yellow layers and chocolate icing!
DeleteThe cake is beautiful! People who can make such great cakes are to be admired.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I'm so impressed with this woman! She's entirely self-taught. :)
DeleteAmazing work. My ability is limited to putting a sloppy layer of frosting on graham crackers for the grandkids.
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing. She's a baking genius!
ReplyDeleteShe knocked that one right out of the park. Amazing.
ReplyDeleteIndeed it is gorgeous.
