Barnyard Birthday Cake

We made a fun, farm theme birthday cake for little Miss V's 3rd birthday.  Two tiers of adorable farm happenings - a blue sky with puffy clouds, sunshine, and bees, and green grass with flowers and farm animals.  It was topped off with a red barn, a cute lamb, and a cow print bow.  This cake has everything from the barnyard!

 

Pink and Red Birthday Cake for McKenna's 3rd Birthday

This adorable cake was made for McKenna's 3rd birthday, which is close to Valentine's Day.  We used lots of pink and red along with a few hearts, but the main inspiration came from McKenna's favorite rag doll.  Even the doll's pet puppy made it onto the cake!  

Hope you had a wonderful birthday, McKenna!

A Whimsical Birthday Cake

We were asked to create a cake inspired by Dr. Seuss for Abir's birthday, and here's a few shots of the final design.  All of the decorating was done in fondant with hand painted shading and outlining.  Almost too cute to cut into!

1st Birthday Cake with Trucks

This was a fun, 2 tier birthday cake we did with heavy-duty trucks driving around the top tier and lots of colored stripes on the bottom tier.  Super cute 1st birthday cake for the little guy!

Custom Anime Birthday Cake

For the second time this year, Cocoa & Fig was asked to partner with Icing Smiles, a non-profit organization that provides custom celebration cakes to families impacted by the critical illness of a child. They sent us the request for a young girl named Sierra who was celebrating her 13th birthday. Sierra is a sister to a medical child named Gabriel who has been battling Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.  They asked if we could provide Sierra with a dream birthday cake of her favorite anime character, and we jumped at the opportunity.  See photos of the final design below!

Hope you had a great birthday, Sierra!

Cow Cake for Samantha's 2nd Birthday

Cocoa & Fig was asked to make a specialty cake for a very dear friend's daughter, named Samantha.  All she wanted for her 2nd birthday was "cows."  When asked if there was anything else she wanted she replied, "baby cows".  Well, then what would be more fitting for her cake than a baby cow?  So here is what we came up with. It's about 6 layers of cake and buttercream that was covered with white fondant along with colored fondant accent pieces.  We also airbrushed some pink rouge on her for the party.

We hope you enjoyed your baby cow Samantha!  And we can't wait to hear what you would like for your 3rd birthday!

MONSTERS CAKE

We love making cakes for kids! When this repeat client contacted us for another birthday cake she had one request: no more hockey cakes. Her sons are in love with hockey and only request hockey related cakes. But after 3 or 4, it was time to try something new. And what could be more fun than a kid's cake with MONSTERS? Based on a t-shirt design on Etsy, these monsters are more silly than scary.

They remind me of the characters on Fraggle Rock.
You remember Fraggle Rock don't you?


Ok, so maybe I've dated myself. But I still love these little monsters!
