I got to stray from the beaten path, so to speak, this week on my cake order. This week's request was for a "50's-ish cake". After giving it some thought, I decided to go with a jukebox. I had considered a doll cake with a poodle skirt, but the customer definitely wanted a square cake, so this was the end result.
As a finishing touch, I added little records around the sides of the cake. It was fun to work in some different than usual colors! I hope she likes it.

Very cute! I'm going to pass your name along to my best friend who lives in Bryan for her daughter's first birthday (which isn't until April but you know, it's never to early to start planning!)
Do you advertise your cakes and sewing or do you get most of your work through word-of-mouth? You always sound so busy! And you do such cute stuff too!
Tara--Thanks for passing my name on.
Morgan--No, I don't really advertise much, other than what I post here...but I do have a "standing contract" with a local princess and diva party business for the cakes. I am just getting started with the sewing, and would like to focus more on that, so I may try a little advertising, we'll see. Thanks for the encouragement.
Fantastic! Adorable, as always, my sweet creative friend!
The cake looks great. You have such wonderful ideas. Thanks for sharing the pictures - we love to see them.
Now I want to have a 50's party just so I can have this cake! Very cute!
I am continually impressed with your talent...not suprised, just impressed! :)
Your cake turned out awesome! I wish I had your creativity, your stuff always looks so perfect. :)
