Heinz 57 Sauce – Birthday Cake – Pebble Beach, CA

Do you watch the Food Network?

Have you ever seen the show “Private Chefs of Beverly Hills”?  Well, I’m in love with it.  It’s set to record every single new episode on my DVR.  The chefs on the show work for a company called Big City Chefs.

I was ecstatic when I was contacted by Big City Chefs to make a cake for one of their clients.  The client was having a 57th birthday party for his wife and had a “Heinz 57 Sauce” theme, so he wanted a cake that looked like a Heinz 57 bottle.  I am thrilled with how the cake turned out and am so grateful for the opportunity to work with Big City Chefs (Chef Derek Chance was the Private Chef for the party)!

Cake:  Vanilla

Icing:  French Buttercream

Covering:  Fondant

Happy May Day!

I love May.  Not only is it my birthday month, but May rejuvenates me.  It seems like the air changes, the flowers come out, the weather stays nice, and good things happen!   

Shyla had called me a month or so ago wanting cupcakes for her daughters birthday party.  It didn’t end up working out and she called the other day and ordered a dozen cupcakes just because.    I made her these delectible delights topped with a flower in honor of May Day.  It seemed appropriate to have an edible “flower basket”. 

Cupcake:  Red Velvet

Icing:  Buttercream

Topper:  Gumpaste flowers

Hailey’s Gerbera Daisy Bridal Shower Cake

Hailey is a dear friend of our family.  She used to be our “nanny” for our first son when he was teeny tiny and I had to work.  She is a darling girl and she has turned into this mature woman who is getting married in May! 

I was thrilled to make her bridal shower cake.  Her wedding flowers are Gerbera daisies and her colors are pink, orange and green (all in the almost neon tone).

Congratulations Hailey!

Cake:  Chocolate Fudge

Icing:  Vanilla Buttercream

Covering:  Fondant

Flowers:  Gum paste Gerbera Daisies
