Last year we provided the wedding cake for Ashley and Grant’s wedding. We love repeat clients so we were more than thrilled when Ashley contacted us to create a surprise birthday cake for Grant’s 30th birthday at the Lung Fung Chinese restaurant. Grant is an avid hunter, having traveled to the mainland and even Australia on hunting trips. Ashley sent us photos of the taxidermied animals they have hanging on the walls of their home and we replicated two of each animal – mallards, rams and deer – all handmade, out of sugar. As the cake was hexagon shaped, we were able to include a different animal on each panel. For the topper we created a figurine of Grant with his favorite hunting dog, and included his other two dogs as the base of the cake. The rest of the cake was made to look like the wilderness, with all-edible grass, dirt and rocks. For his flavor, Ashely choose our Chocolate Cake with Cookies and Cream Filling.
Happy Birthday Grant – hope your birthday was fabulous!
