Cake Alert

This weekend was a strange yet intriguing request. They needed just a top cake but it was very last minute and there wasn't time so I made them a cake dummy. A fake cake. They wanted cherry blossoms on the sides and a small tray of sushi on the top. I was ALL OVER THIS. Miniature fondant sushis? Um, yes please. I mean seriously. Check this out:

This is all I have. They put it together on site. They were adding two origami animals. I bet it was cool and I hope they send pics.

That aside, this fake cake got me thinking about starting up a business renting fancy fake cakes to brides with big dreams but tiny budgets. I could make the fake cakes and they could rent them for the night and serve sheet cakes to the guests. No one would be any wiser. Hmmm....

Anyway, check it out even though you just looked at it.

That is a brilliant idea, Amy. And I love the tiny sushi.
