Children's Birthday Cakes are always fun to do because you can add so much color, shapes and make it as creative as you want. Mickey Mouse is one of the favorite character to chose for a theme birthday party. This cake was made for a two year old boy where we recreate the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on the bottom tier with his name in the front using gum paste for the letters and some green fondant with grass texture to give them stability. The top tier resambels Mickey mouse short pants and we put some stars on the top along with the number 2 using gum paste for both stars and number.
All figurines are not made out of sugar as per client requests.
The set up of the cake was a little tricky because that day was very humid and the heat was making all decorations starting to melt so we had to add extra support where ever we see it need it. At the end everything was perfect and my client and their guest enjoy a delicious piece of cake!!
The cake flavor was Vanilla cake with dulce de leche filling.

Did anyone said sugar? Well, this weekend one of the birthday cakes that we did was a Wizard of Oz theme cake with Emerald City on top. My client found a similar design on the Internet and since Isabella, the 4 years-old birthday girl was afraid of the witch's legs being smashed by the cake, I suggested that we could have her legs in a less dramatic situation. So I decided to do sort of a chute out of the tin cake which was the bottom tier, and then make the witch look like she fell inside of  it. I think it turned out amazing and "Emerald city" on top complemented perfect the theme of the cake!! We poured green Isomalt sugar into the molds that we did using "silicone plastique" which is sold by "make your own molds" and there were three different sizes for the columns.We put a LED light on the back of the city and it looks awesome!! 
The bottom tier was marble cake with chocolate ganache and top tier was coconut cake with coconut cream....yummy!!  

This is the beginning of a new era for us. Thank you for joining us.........
