Dog yappy birthday



ART EATS BAKERY
Last night I went to my first doggy birthday party . It was held at the Barkery Bistro on Main Street in Greenville SC. I created a carrot bacon and chicken cake for the birthday boy ( Bentley - a 4 year old Golden retreiver). It turned into a big bash with about 40 people and their pets. I was really amazed at how well behaved all of the dogs were. There were all sizes and breeds. There were no fights even when when the cake was served. Every one had a blast and really enjoyed the cake.

Wedding cake contest

Well I know I said I was going to post each tier of my dummy cake for a contest in September. I forgot to do it. Here are the first 4 tiers. It has sugar flowers, pearls, crystals, and cameos. They are all handcrafted by me and edible. I like to use sugar art decorations instead of things that are not edible.
I may not finish it for a while. I found out that my son is getting married on the day of the contest. I hope there will be another close by sometime soon. The only other big one that I knowof is in Tusa Oklahoma. I don't think I can get to that one this year. http://www.arteatsbakery.com

I sometimes make a cake to try out design ideas and want to see what you think. This is a fondant covered cake that I designed with sugar sculpture heart and flowers. The flowers have royal icing pearls for the centers and the hearts have royal icing pearls and Fleur de lis. The top has orange royal icing pearls in the shape of hearts and pink flowers. Let me know if you like it or have some suggestions.

Gamecock graduation cake


ART EATS BAKERY
This fondant cake was for a USC student. The Gamecock colors are garnet and black. I didn't really think I could come make it fit the colors without looking too dark and drab. In the end I was really proud of it and I think they were very happy with it. It's hard to tell in the photo, but the sugar sculptures have a pearl finish on them and so do the pearls on the border.

I have been very busy the last two weeks and have not started my competition cakes. I did a cake for an AIDS dinner fundraiser and two for a big party that was held for everyone who attended one of the individual dinner parties. These parties were held in the homes of people all around town. I did not attend any because I had so many cakes to do, but I've been told that they were all a big hit and raised a lot of money for AID UPSTATE. I hope everyone will find that even if you are not in a position to donate cash, there are lots of ways to help your local charities. These 3 cakes were a joyful donation.


The 3 tiered square cake on the left was chocolate fudge and the bottom tier had mocha Kahlua mousse butter cream. It was decorated with embossed red fondant ribbons, red sugar sculptures and silver pearls. The 3 tier round cake was amaretto with vanilla mousse butter cream. It was decorated with silver pearls, red fondant diamonds, circles and hearts. It had wire sculptures with red decorations on them. http://www.arteatsbakery.com/
This 3 tier square cake has antiqued red baroque sugar sculptures, red ribbons and sugar pearls.

This is a present cake for a girl's party with chocolate fondant, pink polka dots, sugar ribbons and flower.

Art Eats bakery

I have always loved baking, art and sculpture. I never decorated my cakes until last year when I started watching the Ace of Cakes show and the Cake Challenge show on the food network. I was thrilled to lean that cake decorating doesn't have to be gooey icing and old fashion decorations. In this blog I hope to share some of my creative designs with you and get some feed back as to what you like.

3 tier wedding cake with starburst, doves, pearls and drapes. All decorations are edible.
I am going to be entering some contest and shows over the next few months and will be posting the pictures of my dummy cakes. These are Styrofoam cake forms that you decorate just as you would a cake. The icings are a type that will dry and they can be kept almost forever. They weigh a lot less than cake and are easier to trans port to the events. My plan is to show you each of the tiers as I decorate them and see what you think about how they look together.
