This is a belated post for a cake I made for the 6th birthday of the daughter of a colleague several weeks ago. She was able to bring her daughter into the office a couple months ago (on a school holiday) so we could hold a cake design session. The daughter was so excited that she got to design her very own cake that she drew pictures of the design and handed them out around the office. It was fun. The cake was vanilla chiffon with chocolate mousse fillng and fondant decorations.
The below cake was made for a baby shower where the expecting mother did not yet know the sex of the child. The design was roughly based on the image from the event’s evite:
The cake was vanilla chiffon with raspberry and chocolate mousse fillings, decorated with fondant.
A week and a half ago one of my best friends packed up and moved from DC out to Portland, OR to begin her studies at Oregon Health and Science University. We all threw her a party to properly send her off and I made the cake. It was chocolate chiffon with chocolate mousse filling and chocolate fondant decorations. The “stickers” on the suitcase were, of course, items of personal meaning to my friend. We’ll miss you, Dana!
