Fabulous Cake Friday: Intricate Icings
September 3rd, 2010 by Carrie Sellman | No Comments

Another Friday is here and we have another Fabulous Cake for you today.  Today’s cake is actually two cakes and is twice the fun!  Created by Rachael Teufel from Intricate Icings, these 3D bulldog cakes are too adorable.  Dressed up in a top hat and veil, this bulldog couple is all ready for the wedding.  Check out this impressive display!

The detail work on this cake is quite impressive!  I love how they captured the texture of the bulldog wrinkles and the little tongue on the groom dog.    These little cuties were actually carved and sculpted to replicate two real bulldogs and I must say that the similarities between the real dogs and the cakes are just striking.  Check out the real bulldog models here.

Many kudos to Rachael and her team on a cake well done! Be sure to check out more of their amazing creations on the Intricate Icings website and blog and right here in our Top Tier Directory.  You can also catch Rachael’s premier on the Food Network in the Roller Derby Cake Challenge!

Happy Friday Everyone!

August 31st, 2010 by Carrie Sellman | 3 Comments

Today’s real party is a bright and bold birthday.  This adorable Yo Gabba Gabba party was submitted by Krista of Kiki’s List, the mother and creative mind behind the party.  Created for her daughter’s second birthday, this party was perfect for Krista’s little Yo Gabba Gabba fan!

The bright colors really make this party pop.  The character cutouts are such a fun addition for both the kids and for the parents who love to take pictures!  And the cake by Tastefully Treated fits perfectly into the party decor.

A special thank you to Krista for sharing this adorable birthday party with us. Be sure to hop on over to Krista’s blog, Kiki’s List, to read more about this party!
