Baby in a Bathtub!

26 Jun

I don’t think I have ever seen a ‘baby shower’ taken quite so literally – or in such a delicious form! MAD ABOUT CAKES newest cake creation features a hand carved Gluten-Free Choc Mint bathtub!

Of course no bathtime would be complete with out a collection of handmade rubber duckies and a toy boat. To make sure baby is squeaky clean, we’ve included countless hand rolled bubbles, a handcrafted scrub brush along with a fuzzy towel for later! To add to the bathroom scene we have also designed a fun tiled floor. Every babyshower cake we create is unique, too cute to boot and executed with the finest details.

In the Night Garden Cake

24 Apr

A child’s 1st birthday is a memorable event for any parent..and extraordinary cakes make the day so much more special! To celebrate Anneke’s 1st birthday we designed her an ‘In the Night Garden’ cake featuring Iggle Piggle – her favourite character! The loveable kids TV show inspired all the different design elements on the cake and if your a fan you might just recognise some of them!

Layers of fluffy Vanilla Bean sponge make up this cake with a Cookies ‘n’ Cream frosting – adding loads of flavour and a crunchy texture.

A fun, bright and enchanting forest theme decorates the sides of the cake with a range of flowers, winding trees and layers of leaves. These handmade details set the scene for our main star – Iggle Piggle who is wandering down the stepping stone path, holding his favourite red blanket! He waves hello to the birthday girl with the moon and stars floating above him. Iggle Piggle is of course  edible, hand crafted and designed down to the very last detail – but I think he might be a little to cute to eat!

Turn what your kids love into unique, delicious and amazing cakes for any special event.

Cozying up in a pair of pyjamas makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside…and so do cupcakes! MAD ABOUT CAKES was very proud to supply cupcakes to the annual ‘Peter Alexander Winter Conference’ held right in Melbourne! Alexander’s pyjamas are soft, gorgeous and floral – so matching cupcakes were in order!

Delicious gluten free chocolate fudge cupcakes with real vanilla bean frosting adorned guest tables at the event. Each cupcake was styled to complete the look of a hydrangea bunch with every flower air-brushed, hand crafted and finished with edible lustre dust to give the look of soft, beautiful and real flowers.

Don’t you just want to curl up in bed with them?

Triple Celebration Cake

10 Jan

MAD ABOUT CAKES is kicking 2013 off with a bang! A triple bang that is! Our latest creation is a custom designed cake that combines one families wedding anniversary, 30th and 55th birthday all into one extraordinary cake!

The soccer field is a decadent gluten free sugared cherry chocolate fudge cake layered with a rich chocolate frosting (what a mouthful)! Coconut creates the grass texture whilst individually edible hand rolled blades of grass create a striking finish. What scrumptious cake do you think the bottom two tiers are made of? They are actually styrofoam dummy cakes! The middle tier is a minimalist wedding cake with hand piped pearls and a hand cut bride and groom silhouette that represents the couples ongoing love! The bottom tier is a leather travel suitcase that has seen its fair share of countries! Hand crafted, etched and painted to appear worn and torn from use with individually made stickers that add character and charm.

Styrofoam cakes allow customers to achieve the dramatic effect of tiered cakes, allow numerous themes to be represented in cake form and only consume the desired amount of cake. Its a win-win!

Whatever mixed celebration you have, MAD ABOUT CAKES can turn them into one impressive, unique and cohesive cake!

To order a custom cake visit our website www.madaboutcakes.com.au or our facebook page MAD ABOUT CAKES for impressive photos and mouthwatering flavours!
