LAVENDER MEETS HER MATCH
This exhilarating and spunky cake was created for a returning cake
customer of mine and high school acquaintance, Amanda Kessler for her
Sister Dana's 18th Birthday! Dana's first request for this cake was to
incorporate a combination of lavender and a Tiffany & Co. inspired
turquoise for her color choices. I was MORE than ecstatic to experiment
with these two colors! Her second and final request was "To make it look
cool!" Haha and that is Exactly what I did! I added a ton of pizazz by
creating 3 unique handcrafted flowers and rimming each of them in my 24
karat edible gold shimmer paint as well as metallic gold coated pearls. I
also added dramatic stripes to give the cake an exciting personality
and then softened it with a simple lavender design on the opposite
exterior of the cake. Dana absolutely LOVED it, especially with the
additional dark purple, crazy fun feather sticking up that I just HAD to
add! Thank you so much again Amanda and Dana :)
