Beetles, Birthdays and Carolina Blue.

Here are some recent cakes!

This one is for a 60th birthday. JB is a UNC grad with an old Volkswagen Beetle so his daughter ordered this cake. My husband hand-carved the car and it is sitting ontop of a 13x9 to have enough cake to feed all 50 guests. (Vanilla cake. Buttercream frosting. June 13.)


The design of the car and accents are based on the model of the last Bugs made back in 1976. Here's the cake with its inspiration picture!



This cake was made for my husband's 29th birthday so I got a little cheeky with the writing. He thought it was funny!(Chocolate cake. Buttercream frosting. June 7.)




This cake was done for Ellen's birthday. Her dad is the one who got the Beetle cake and I know she's a UNC fan too so I made this cake Carolina Blue as well. (Vanilla/Fudge swirl cake. Buttercream frosting. May 14.)
