Lady Gaga Cake!

This cake I made pretty much because I just wanted to, which was fun and a nice change of pace!  I brought it to my friends birthday party (Happy bday Kat & Hillary!) where it was a big hit.  Some people got the references right away, while most of the men were just totally puzzled, haha.  But the birthday girls got it, which is all that matters.  For your edification:

Glasses on Top - inspired by Telephone by Lady Gaga and Beyonce.  The cigarettes were made from plain white candy cigarettes that I colored and painted and tore up to make look like real, smoked cigs!  PS smoking is not cool, fact.

Top Tier - inspired by Lady Gaga's police tape outfit in the video Telephone.

Middle Tier - inspired by Gaga's appearance on the VMAs, she wore a white lace outfit with pearls, and then at the end of her performance, blood came out of her outfit.  It was wild and awesome.

Bottom Tier - inspired by Gaga's amazing outfit in the video Paparazzi.  With her crazy Mickey Mouse glasses and matching outfit, of course Alexander Skarsgard loved her.  Or DID HE.

See blow for some pics of the cake, and inspiration images.  Enjoy!

Cake was vanilla with fresh blueberries and vanilla frosting.












 

Hermes Scarf

This cake was made for the lovely Amanda of Seas It (I made this cake for their auction last summer)!  For her birthday her friend asked for a cake inspired by an Hermes scarf with a night time ocean scene...  Happy Birthday, Amanda!

Jack's Big Music Show - Mel's Super Swell Dance Party Edition!

When April ordered a Jack's Big Music Show cake for her son with a specific episode in mind, I was so excited!  I looked at tons of pictures and some clips of the episode online and found out that in this specific episode, Mel gets to be a DJ instead of a drummer!  So cute.  Below you can see the whole cake, and Mel's turn as a super cool DJ spinning tunes for a fun dance party.


Fun Groom's Cake and 100th Post!

Liz and Tom are an awesome couple who clearly have a great sense of humor.  Liz wanted a fun groom's cake to present to Tom at their rehearsal dinner, and asked that the theme be "Everything Tom joked about having at the wedding but I wouldn't let him".  HA!  Some of Tom's amazing ideas included pictures of himself on everything, a baseball theme, and raunchy toppers.  As you can see I kept the raunchiness to some fun mudflap girls on the side of the cake, to be replaced by super cute non edible toppers (at the request of the bride) that they could keep!  Congratulations Liz and Tom!!
