Life's a beach....


This week I've been making the biggest cake I have ever been asked to make. It's for a beach themed Bar Mitzvah - that's the only direction I was given. I went and met with the mom ordering the cake and learned that her son is very much into Chess so I tried to tie that into the sand-castle theme. There are also 60 mini cupcakes iced with aqua blue buttercream and sprinkled with blue sanding sugar but you'll need to just take my word for that as I've boxed them up ready for collection.

This is a 16", 12" and 8" square cakes construction of rich chocolate cake with cookies and cream filling.

Whilst typing this one up, I got the call to say they were on their way - nervous doesn't cover how I was feeling. But, I needn't have been, they loved it and to show how much they did the whole family got out of the car to come see it in my dining room, lol. It's all now safely tucked into the trunk of their car and en route to the W for the celebrations to begin - Mazel Tov!
