10/10/10

Yay! Another blog from The People's Cake. Hold on a second... It's Tuesday. What's going on here?!?!

I warned you about this last week. Tomorrow is my birthday. No blogging on my birthday. Celebrating, yes. Blogging, no. Anyway, on with this Tuesday blog.

I read somewhere that last Sunday, 10/10/10, was a lucky day for love. With three weddings that day, it was lucky for us!

First, check out the Bonnie cake. We love the Bonnie cake because of the differently shaped tiers. The bottom was square, the middle was hexagonal, and the top was circular. The sugar paste succulents on this cake were amazing. Look at the detail.


Up next, we've got the Rebecca cake. It was a four-tiered square cake with red berry branches on it. The berries and the branches were lovingly crafted out of sugar paste.

Also, we had the Dana cake. This beauty was inspired by a cake by Marina Sousa. Chef Kaysie was so excited to make this one. The flowers are peonies. Sugar paste, of course.

Finally, we have our lone groom's cake for this week. It's a vintage Volkswagen. Look at the photo below and guess which one is the cake. Give up? It's the big one!

And coming up Thursday, we've got Urban Unveiled. You've still got time to get your tickets, or you can buy them at the door. www.urbanunveiled.com Don't miss it. It'll be a good time for everyone!

No weddings this weekend, but check back next week for coverage of Urban Unveiled. It's going to be magical.

Viva la cake!

Birthday Cake and Cinnamon Rolls



We had one birthday cake this past weekend. It's a red, black and white version of our popular Kylie cake. It was three tiers of red velvet awesomeness.

We also made a batch of cinnamon rolls for our rowing crew. Did you know that Chef Kaysie rows? She's pretty good, too. Here's a picture of me rolling the cinnamon rolls. Don't worry. I just got to roll them. I was not involved in the actual dough preparation.

I guess I should introduce myself. Hi, I'm ReneƩ, The People's Cake public relations manager. I don't bake. Trust me, that's a good thing. I do, however, get to taste test any new flavors that Chef Kaysie creates. My job rocks.

We've got a crazy, crazy weekend ahead of us. It's 10/10/10. Three wedding cakes and a groom's cake. Woohoo!

Anybody remember what next week is? Specifically, next Thursday? That's right, kids! It's Urban Unveiled! www.urbanunveiled.com Get tickets. Come see us. We'll have amazing cakes to look at and yummy cake to eat.

Be on your toes because next week's new blog might be on Tuesday. My birthday is on Wednesday. Yay!

Viva la cake!
