MARRIAGE PROPOSAL CAKE

In my opinion the cake-world is a girl's world... 

Certainly I've done a lot of cakes for boys/men, but they get orderd mainly by women... -so again girls join the game...

In the following case, a young man orderd this cake... with this cake, he wants to make a marriage proposal... how cuuuute...

Women always know, what the want! How the cake has to look like, how it has to taste.... how this, how that,... For men it's much more difficult... so it takes a little bit longer than normal, but at the end we had an answer: 
 
There was no way to having these classical marriage proposal cake-stuff, like hearts, ring-cases, roses,...aso.  

The finally idea was a couple (he and his hopefully future wife) sitting on a couch and watching TV. On the TV is written: "Marry me!"

So, I really loved this idea and I was able to play a little bit with the decoration, because there were no other instructions... 

The result was funny and the client was satisfied at all, although he was a little bit nervous, when we delivered the cake, because he was in the thick of preparations for the proposal... 

To cut the long story, here are the pictures:

I really think it is important to take an eye on the decoration... I love cakes with many details. At the first sight you see a well-done artwork, but after looking closley you are able to find more and more funny details, which shows you, that the artist takes time for he´s work, so you know you have an unique cake, personalized and not just a mass product...

It was a yummy chocolate cake with chocolate filling. The TV and the couch are small cakes to, I just wrapped them in fondant. I made the decorations a few days earlier, so that it was able to dry... I always try to have the whole decoration finished days before, because it protects me for getting in trouble on the day of delivery.

HELLO KITTY CAKE

Hello Kitty & Dear Daniel! 

Nobody kows "Dear Daniel"... but he is the best friend of "Hello Kitty".
Let´s say, he is the male version of "Hello Kitty", but not that popular...

I´ve been in Japan because of a job and there in Asia everybody knows "Dear Daniel" but in Europe everybody just love "Hello Kitty"...

Why, I really don´t now... perhaps this is a girls world...

"Hello Kitty cake"

...but besides that, this is one of many "Hello Kitty"-cakes. I created it for the little Marijeta from Split, to her second birthday.

I´ve already heard that she and her family enjoyed the cake!  

I would say, this cake is one of the easier jobs, but with a big effect. 

You just have to bake a square cake, fill it and cut the Kitty-face out. Finally decorate the Kitty with two eyes, a nose, whiskers and don´t forget the pink bow!!!    

...and perhaps... one time... I will make a "Dear-Daniel"-Cake...
