747 cake





As a thank you to a special friend, we did a 747 cake for his Grandfather. He had retired from Boeing and loves airplanes. We added his wife and his names to the wings of the plane to pay tribute to her. It was a very sweet moment. <3

Underwater & Horse Birthday Cake





We had the pleasure of designing two cakes for a double birthday party for sisters. One wants to be a Marine Biologist and the other loves horses. Here are some pictures of what we came up for them. Both cakes are marble with vanilla buttercream and fondant. They cakes were a hit! It was also a Fear Factor themed party, hence the severed arm on the top of the cake. We later added red food coloring to it.

We won!!!


What a wonderful day in the world of cake! Our "Charleston Bloom" cupcake won Best Charleston Themed Cupcake today at Cupcake Camp Charleston. It was a huge hit! As soon as we displayed them, they were gone! It was a banana cream cupcake with a banana mousse filling, frosted with cream cheese buttercream. Decorated with a fondant/gumpaste magnolia & edible pearls. Wrapped in a cupcake wrapper that is very reminiscent of our wrought iron gates and fences. We made some wonderful new friends that we look forward to seeing next year. Here's to The Sweet Life!!!!
