In planning for Chase’s 1st Birthday at the St. Louis Alumni Clubhouse, his mom Karly contacted us about making a cute 3-D baby dinosaur cake for him, as well as an assortment of cupcakes. She shared with us a picture of his birthday invitation, but allowed us creative freedom when designing the cake.
We went with bright colors, and everything from the cake and all its accents, to the little figurines on each cupcake were all edible – made completely of sugar. The cake flavor they chose was Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese Filling, and the cupcake flavors included: Orange Dreamcicle Cake with Vanilla Cream Filling, Devil’s Food Cake with Cookies N Cream Filling, Yellow Butter Cake with Lilikoi Filling, Yellow Butter Cake with Fresh Strawberry Filling and Guava Cake with Fresh Strawberry Filling.
Chases’s mom Karly shared this funny story (and photo) with us via Instagram:
“I forgot to mention that when I was serving the cake, my nephew asked if he could eat the eyes, but we ignored him. When we were packing the cake up we noticed that BOTH eyes were gone. Apparently my nephew and his classmate ate it :-/ They did say it was delicious!!!”
